Who Am I?

Wow, kind of a philosophical question right off the bat, huh?...

I'm Gina, a woman who loves to write about my life, thoughts, dreams and memories. People have always told me that I have a flair for writing, and that they enjoy reading what I write. After some encouragement from my husband, I decided to take the leap into blogging and share my writings with a bigger audience.

In an effort to answer the burning question du jour, "Who Am I?" I'll jump right in with a brief bio...

As far as details, I will tell you that I'm married to Scott, the most wonderful man in the world. We have no human children, but we are and have been the proud parents of several terrific cats. I will write a lot about Scott and our cats because they are my life.

As far as my life's work, I've been a home-based daycare provider for over 20 years. It is overall a rewarding career, sometimes frustrating and usually under-appreciated.

I try to make time for interests and hobbies to keep my life balanced. In the effort to take care of myself I practice yoga and I exercise as often as I can, which is not often enough to suit me! I love to cook...I am lucky to be able to incorporate that passion into my daily work life, creating nutritious, interesting and tasty meals for Scott and myself as well as the daycare children. I enjoy quality television and movies, and you will learn about my tastes in those, as well as other interests such as books and music in future posts, so visit often. I can't promise I'll post daily, but it is my intention to keep it as regular as possible.

I want my blog to express who I am. I want reading my blog to be like meeting me...multi-faceted, intelligent, thoughtful, funny. I'm going to keep it visually uncluttered...I guess that's my "Zen" approach to blogging.

That's all...just putting myself out there for your consideration and - hopefully - enjoyment.
