I am a 30-year-old, mommy of 1, former US Marine, married to an Army National Guardsman.  I’ve been blogging officially since 2003 but have kept various online journals since 1999.

I never know what to put on these sorts of pages so here are some vitals:

My current major (I swear I’m almost done with it) is in medical transcription. If I can barely get my homework finished at home then I have no idea what makes me think I’ll be able to work at home, but we’ll see.
