About
Posted on 01/23/2008 02:16 pm by Jerseygirl89After nine years in the trenches of an urban elementary school, I am now a write-at-home mom to my daughter Ironflower, 12/04, my son Lovebug, 3/06 and my son ChunkyMonkey, 11/08. I am also wife to Hot Guy, the actor/producer/sound engineer/model-builder I snagged while doing community theater. Calling myself “Jerseygirl” seemed cute when I lived in Kansas City, but after moving back home to Jersey in 2007 it speaks of a hometown pride I have yet to re-develop. Most of the other moms around here make me nervous.

Ha! I used to live off exit 133 off the Parkway. And I graduated H.S. in ’89.
I miss going down the shore. Now that I live in NH, we drive to the seaside.

Hey, another fellow Jersey girl commenting! Got to your site from “A mommy story”. I’m originally from Red Bank – exit 109, too! – now living in Columbus OH.

I was curious what it would take to get a two-word text link on your blog saying something like “Wedding Rings” or “Tungsten Rings” with a hyperlink to our site (www.superiorweddingrings.com). We are a relatively new company and we are currently trying to improve our page ranking on Google. We operate on a small budget but we would be more than willing to give you a tungsten ring or tungsten ring set from our site in exchange for a link. We would really appreciate any help you can give us. Let me know if this would be something you would be interested in. Thanks in advance for any help you can give us.
Thanks again,
Jeff

Hi! I just came across your blog and found it humourous. I like the above which said ‘A clean house is a sign of a wasted life’. I’m a mum of 2 boys and wished I was too a stay-at-home mum. Busy in the office and back home busy with kids. No time to do what I really want. I probably have no time to read this nex time. Sigh!
