Getting To Know You

Just like Anna in The King And I, I would like to get to know you!  And I would like for you to know me as well.
I am happy.  I am fun.  I have a slightly naughty sense of humor (I love the "that's what she said" jokes and try to put myself into situations where I can actually use that joke often!) and find amusement in almost everything that I do.  I have three "spirited" children (which, as many of you know, "spirited" really means . . . um . . . . wild.  I prefer to think of them as highly imaginative, interesting, intelligent children; you know . . . . spirited!) and a very neurotic dog that we rescued from certain doom.  I am a(n old-ish!) barista at Starbucks, a job which I love maybe a bit too much!  I love to knit and to sew but I'm not great at either of those hobbies.  I don't design my patterns and I take forever to knit anything.  In fact, I just finished a sweater that took me almost 8 years to knit! *giggle*  I am also a semi-professional photographer; when I started getting actual money for the photos I was shooting, it turned more into a job and less into a fun creative outlet.
I will share the adventures of my "spirited" children and neurotic dog with you; I will regale you with tales of work at Starbucks; I will impress you with my talents at knitting and sewing and I will make you smile at the simple amusements of life!  I am starting this blog in the hopes of getting to know you, too!  Let's have some fun!
Happy-ness is getting to know you!
