Welcome!

I've decided to give this blog thing a try... There are many times when I wish I had a journal, but since I'm a computer programmer, I'm normally on here instead of writing with pen and paper. This is supposed to make things easier on me... we will see! :)

I guess I should tell you about myself: I'm 30 yrs. old, just got married this past August to a wonderful man who is 3 years my senior. This is a second marriage for me, a first for him. We have 2 cats, Koko and Bean. (And now you've seen a little glimpse of my humor... get it? Kokobean?) Koko is a mostly black cat with some white markings, and she got her name from the native american word for night. Bean got her name because of a play on words, and she wasn't yellow - otherwise her name would have been Butter.

We live in a 3 bedroom house, and we are in the process of finishing our basement. I mention this because it is a source of great pride for my husband, and great chaos for me. While I am happy we are finishing it, I'm terrified of a couple things: 1) the expense. I had no idea finishing a basement was so expensive! 2) My irrational fear that once it's finished, I'll never see my husband again!

Along with being a computer programmer during the day, I, like Supergirl, have a different job at night... I am also a Pampered Chef consultant. I like it, it's very rewarding, but it's also a lot of work. I love to cook, but the standing in front of people is a fear I'm still getting over.

Well, this is a start, and you'll get a lot more, so tune in later...

Happy Day!
