Hi, I’m Monica.  I do all the writing, editing, thinking, and life you find here.  But, truly this blog , this life, this story, this time is not mine…

But if you’re still curious about me, here ya go. I was lucky to have married my high school sweetheart and best friend 15 years ago.  I’m a first year homeschooling mom of three (13, 10, and 8).  I was a Phoenician, Okie, now turned South Carolinian.  I’ve managed a coffee shop, sold beauty products, taught college communication classes, helped open a business for my hubby, closed said business, moved across the country once without kids, once with three kids a cat and two dogs, almost declared bankruptcy, love to race half-marathons, hate to train for half-marathons, became allergic to all melon after age 30, carry an epi-pen for ragweed exposure, am Army proud of my hubby, yet above all else I follow Jesus wherever He leads.   Even if it is to write a stinkin’ blog in a blog-filled world.
