So THIS is Blogging

I'm a long time commenter and first time blogger. Here's to hoping I don't make too much of a fool of myself. I guess I should start off with a little about myself. I presently am a stay at home mother to four(and a half if you count the large child I am presently married to). My children range in age(as does my mental status on each) from 16( OMG, I'm not ready for him to be driving yet!) 14(my one and only princess but not my only diva), 11(Yes, Christopher boys CAN like Barbies.), and 9(I think I am gonna cry my itty bitty is no longer little! bwahhhhhhhh). I've been married for 15 years now to the same wonderful man. He works for Norfolk Southern as a conductor. I enjoy reading, politics(okay, I don't REALLY enjoy it nowadays. I mainly scream at my TV alot), gardening, dancing(mainly around my kitchen since we aren't exactly in an area where I have alot of options) and spending time with my family(which with 4 kids probably means I am not completely sane). Oh, I also like to figure out ways to stretch my dollar. Over the years I've gotten quite good at being creative while still maintaining my natural desire to be a bit lazy. That's what lead me here to this blog............Pssst is a campaign started by General Mills and they seem to have this crazy idea that we should fill the internet with voices........oh and coupons(can't forget the coupons). So, now it's your turn tell me about yourself. What brought you here?
