Meet Me

Hi – I’m Cher and this is my blog. Welcome! Come on in. Look around. Plenty to see. Not much to do.

I’m a 40-something working mother from suburban Canada. I grew up with one brother, no sisters. I married my husband of 11 years (Willie), and now we have two wonderful sons (The Eldest – age 9 and The Youngest – age 6). With the exception of my Mom, I have always lived with boys.

Now don’t get me wrong – I love boys, and I do get along very well with them. But the fact remains that I have always been surrounded by them. Even our pets are boys! So I am, for all intents and purposes, living in a boy’s world . . . and I’m the only girl!

I started blogging in 2009 because;

I love reading other people’s, so I thought I might also love writing one of my own
I don’t have any other hobbies at the moment
it’s inexpensive (that’s a real plus because I’m cheap)
I can do it from the comfort of my own home (read: “I’m too lazy to go to the gym”)
it doesn’t take up too much time (which I don’t have much of anyway because I work full time, and my husband and boys have very busy extra-curricular schedules)
I have a REALLY bad memory and wanted to have a journal of stuff that happens in my life. Except I knew I would never write in a journal.

I typically post everyday, Monday to Friday. I’m far too busy on the weekends keeping up with the boys and getting the house in order to come up with anything blog-worthy.

If you want a small sampling, here’s some of my most popular posts;
