Everyone's Doing It...

I just heard about the start of 5 Minute For Mom's Ultimate Blog Party and thought I'd join the fun. Ah, the memories of last year's Ultimate Blog Party have come streaming back to me. Last year at this time I had just started my blog and was maybe posting about once a week. I seriously didn't know what in the heck I was doing. I was like, "What in the heck is a Mr. Linky? And what in the heck is a sticky post?" I only just recently found out what that was. So, needless to say, I was a rookie.

So for those of you just visiting from the blog party, I'll give you just a little sampling of the wonderfulness you'll find here at FromADesperateHousewife.

You'll find me, a very non-happy-go-lucky compulsively afraid of toilet germs mother of one little 4-year-old OCD child whose has an obsession with lining things up in rows. Seriously, we go into the toy store, and in about five minutes you'll find rows upon rows of toy cars in the aisle. It's kind of like in that movie The Sixth Sense when the mother turns around and all the cupboard doors are opened.

And then there's also hubby. He is definitely NOT obsessive about anything. He keeps the house just dirty enough so that our obsessive germ killing does not lead to a super germ-virus strain.

He goes off to work everyday and I stay here, working my investigations business and writing for the Jury Verdict Review and Analysis from my home office. I know, exciting stuff. (Please humor me here.) Kaydn Rye and I manage to work in some home pre-school lessons here and there in preparation for when we reach the "big time" with homeschooling and for when my life will probably pretty much revolve around, you guessed it, homeschool.

We all just moved back to my tiny little hometown in the middle of nowhere North Dakota after living in South Dakota where I began my journalism career as a government/politcal writer at a small newspaper. (I know, exciting stuff, right?)

Before that, we lived in the absolute wonderfulness of the Mid-South - Memphis. Umm, I can just smell the 80 degree, 100 percent humidity air they're probably loving right now. Me, I now live in a place where you have to wear a space suit half the year just to walk out the door. But I'm not bitter about that or anything. Dude, as far as I see it, if you can't wear flip flops year round, you may as well be in prison.

And of course, we are Jesus-seekers who celebrate the Feasts of the Bible, you know, like Passover, Feast of Tabernacles.
