Introducing . .


   It's me, Jamee. My first post and I'm not even sure what to say. I never thought I would even do a blog, but look at me now! I see that it is how the world is starting to communicate now, electronically and I've got to hurry up and jump on the bandwagon. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, but I'm sure I'll get it in time. 
    So, let's see. I have been married to Jared for 6 years now. We live in Richmond, TX and we have 3 children: Corinne (who is actually mine from a previous marriage) - 7, Callie - 5, and Caden-4. They are beautiful and talented and crazy and frustrating all at the same time and I love 'em. I am an RN and am also going to school to get my Masters in Nursing and will eventually be a Nurse Practitioner. . someday. No, I graduate in December. My life consists of school and carting my girls to cheerleading, which is a monster in and of itself, but I will save that for another day. It is crazy and challenging and sometimes I don't know how I can do it anymore..but I still manage to go. I'm very disorganized though, which does not help at all. I try to make "to do" lists but just because I put it down on paper doesn't mean it's happening. Oh and to top it off, we have a cute little yorkie named Oliver. He is about 6 months old and just got fixed --thank heavens! So much less pee on the carpet now. 
    I love to sing and play the piano, although I have not done either for a long while it seems. I love to scrapbook and I LOVE to watch movies. If I could somehow be a movie critic, I would do it in a heartbeat. If you've seen it, I've probably already seen it. :) I am trying to lose weight and it is HARD. I lost 20 lbs in 2 months --December and January of all months, and I don't even know what I did except not pick up my fork! But February went by without a pound lost and March is droning on. . . I gotta get back on the saddle. 
   Anyway, I don't know if anyone at all is going to read this, but if you do, feel free to comment and let me know how you are doing. 

P.S. Today I took my daughter to a birthday party and it was 3 1/2 hours long! Ugh! That is WAY too long to be at a birthday party for someone you barely know. Keep that in mind when you plan your next event. . .

Ok, so I just sent you an email...and look, you need absolutely NO help setting this up! It looks great! I didn't know you were in school for nursing, and I think that is fantastic! You are one busy mama! And sounds like we are the same when it comes to organizing...I get it to paper, it just has a hard time actually getting done! I hope you don't mind that I keep checking back.

Welcome to the wonderful world of blogging...it's how my family stays connected to one another, my parents are up in Oregon along with two sisters and their kids, another sister in Utah, and two more sisters and a brother in Vegas. We send video clips and picturs back and forth, it's a cool way to do your family history. I can't wait to come for the wedding and see all of you. Your blog is really cute, great job and post often.

Welcome aboard! Blogs are for moms and RNs who do not have time for phone calls and lunch dates and whatnot. I'm glad you are here!
