About Me

  • About Me: *updated 1/20/08* I'm 32 years old. I have a five-year-old, Brian Anthony, and a two-year-old, Damian Alexander (Alex). ~~ This blog began around the time I was separating from my husband, just two weeks before Alex was born. Most of my earlier entries were centered around that drama, but now the drama centers more around my job and financial situations. ~~ I apologize ahead of time if nothing on this page makes any sense, b/c I'm still trying to keep it all straight myself! lol
