Hello my name is....

Hello everyone out there on the great World Wide Web....

My name is Erica.
I am a 34 year old sahm (Stay At Home Mom) and I love every minute of it.
I have a 14 year old,and my son going to be 13 in May.
I am a proud mama to my 2 WONDERFUL Fur-Babies.
Gizmo (who is part Chihuahua (her father) ,and Pug (her mother).
So I call her a Chug :) She's also a daddy's girl.

I'm originally from Charleston,SC,but moved to Blytheville,Ar due to my dad transferring..he was in the USAF (United States Air Force)
 where I currently reside (10 min,to a town called) in Gosnell,Ar

Bessie (who is part sheltie,and german shepherd) she rescued me 7 years ago,and has been my side kick through it all.
Every where I go,there is Bessie ;)
She is in here now sleeping on my bed as I sit and type away,lol.
Such a good girl. She's also (in case you haven't caught on) is a momma's girl.
:) I Love every minute of it. LOL

I am happily married to my Soul Mate (yes I believe in that stuff,and he is mine,lol) for 15 wonderful years. He's truly saved me. I am forever greatful for being the one he picked to spend the rest of his life with,and to have his babies (which I've always wanted).

We met when I was 15,and he was 19. He was wearing his concert t-shirt,camo pants,and his boots,and a hat. I THOUGHT he was SO cute. LOL..we tried to date 3 times all together,and the first time I was 16 my mom found out,and OMG all hades broke loose,lol then at 17 and he was 21..well that didn't work out. Then when I was 18 we got back together,and we've been together ever since.

I love being around him all the time,and he loves spending every moment with me as well. He will gladly tell you,lol. We're strange I guess to love being with each other,but I believe in Love :) and it does take 2 to keep it going,and I made my mind up when I was dating Dan,that I wanted a much more different marriage than I was used to seeing.
So we have done JUST that :)

I have one of the most wonderful daughter,whom I LOVE very much,and I count on her more than she realizes,but then I think the more she get's older the more she does realize it after all.
She is a teenager,and I tell you I am not liking these teenage years at ALL...I thought having them as small children was a rough patch LOL whooo...you can tell I am SO used to being a teenager's mom,I am so used to being their mommy. LOL
She is a help out,and has gotten a lot better about doing her chores in the house.
My son helps well in the house as well...

I have Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD: in my lower back)
I also have Chronic Hip Bursitis,and Rheumetoid Arthritis.

Dan is such a great husband. He takes great care of all of us. Without him this would be almost impossible for him,and also without the help of everyone...and them being at that age of they can pull their own weight....I had to do ALOT more chores than they do lol
All they have to do is the Kitchen (they do this together) and their rooms...every now and then help me with the laundry (but I think with the way my hands,elbows and wrists have been hurting me...that they're going to have to help a lot more with the laundry.).
It won't kill them though....as shocking to them as it sounds (well to my daughter,lol)

Have a good everning.
Blessed BE...
