Lights! Camera! Action! Welcome to my first blog. I'm a newbie (virgin if you will) to the Blog-tastic lifestyle, and have to say this is much harder than I thought. My familial counterpart 'Addi-tude', as she's known to fellow bloggers, or 'Adrienne', 'Red', 'My Bro's Broad' (as she's known by me), talked me into this whole thing. So at least if I fail miserably, I have a scapegoat to blame for my derision and ineptitude. Don't we all just love a good scapegoat? It's the reason I'm able to get up everyday and teeter through this merry-go-around called life.
I guess a little about me, to help set the scene. I'm a reverently divorced mother of 3, residing in the resplendent suburb of Dallas, TX. I work for a large company in Dallas, and in my free time try to ensure my daughters don't end up swinging around a pole or my son toting an AK to his 2nd grade class. Neither have transpired, so I guess what ever I'm doing is working. I'm dumbfounded myself. I really have no clue what I'm doing. It's all a game of Imaginif scenarios running through my head and sometimes, I guess the wrong synopsis...then pray it's not completely irreparable and going to cost me thousands in counseling bills or a rebellious tattoo (or piercing) on a conspicuous region on their body.
Cheers! To clueless parents who just want their kids to be productive law-abiding citizens, who don't beat their wives, kick their dogs, or live at home until their 34. Is this really too much to ask?
That seems like a good segue until my next blog.
In the meantime, a Motivational Moment from me to you:
"It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others"
I should not neglect to say that parental advisory is suggested for future posts. Anything I say can and will most likely be inappropriate or offense to children, bible-thumpers, faint of heart, ex-husbands, my mother, and cat lovers.
Til next time!

Welcome to the world of blogging, Kris! Can't wait to see what else you have up your literary sleeve.
I'll make a deal; I won't give your URL to your family if you don't give my URL to your family!
Addie
Great job Kris,
Addie got me started on this blogging stuff and I love it so much that I run into my kitchen shivering -- to boot up my computer and see what's new.
I will be following you,too
Addie's Mom
Welcome Kris! Sounds like you have quite a bit of Addie rubbed off on you. Can't wait to see what shows up next!
Hi Kris - I hate to tell you this, but my sister Addie says you should post something new. I'm sorry to be the bearer of such Kris-ticism, but I feel a sense of obligation to bend to her will since I'm her houseguest this week.
Take care!
Kevin
Ah, just like your sibling, you are a funny one! Loved the quote--might become my new mantra for 2009!
I think it is also your sister who gets a kick out of word verification. Well, mine below to publish this post is
"acreepi".
That is a scream! Er, no pun intended.
