My Intro - UBP 2012

I came across the Ultimate Blog Party at 5minutesformom.com and I've decided to join!!  WTH? Why not? I bring the party wherever I go anyway, might as well share the humorous, embarrassing, stressful and fulfilling moments of my life with an even larger audience.  

You can visit my blog, Graceful Disaster: here. I'm a single working mom, with 1 prepubescent, witty & smart 10 year old daughter and 1 hormonal, sarcastic  know-it-all 13 year old daughter.  My life is a constant roller coaster ride.  When I fall down (which I do often) I jump right back up and make it look like I did it on purpose...hence the name Graceful Disaster.  I've learned that blogging is more therapeutic than beating my children (that's a joke-so if it offended you, you might not want to read any further).  Basically I write what everyone else is feeling/thinking, but feel guilty saying out loud.  My posts will encourage you that nobody is perfect and you're not alone when you think you're probably the worst parent in history...YOU'RE NOT!!!  I AM...MY 13 YEAR OLD TOLD ME SO THIS MORNING!!

I love to laugh at myself and others...and it's way more fun when I'm not laughing alone.  I write in order to find the funny in my most disastrous parenting moments.  I write to relive the stupid, funny and crazy shit that my friends and I do.  I write to vent about the things that I can't keep in...so I don't explode and take it out on my children.  I write because I love it...and really wish I'd loved it more in high school.  


So for a peek into my life and all of the insanity that surrounds it, please read and enjoy....and if it makes you laugh or makes you cry or makes you think of something in your life, please tell us about it in a comment.  You can follow me on Facebook too...here.
