First I’ll start by giving you the origins of the name of my blog. “Urban Cowboy” might not be the best movie in the world but it is one of my favorites just for lines such as “I got smarts real good”. And there you have it.
I actually started this blog back in 07 but life seem to overtake me at the time and I could never commit to a regular post. 3 years later and no kids in diapers, I’ll give it another shot.
Where to begin? There is nothing particularly fabulous or even that out of the ordinary about me. I’m a stay at home mom. I chauffeur kids back and forth to school. I cook (sometimes) and clean (rarely), try to look my best (okay I’m not gonna lie here….I always do:) doing it all.
I went from gross office humor everyday (and loved it!) to poop jokes and posts on Facebook about how my kids tell me my butt is hanging out and how they don’t want to see it; or how a good deed I thought I was doing turned into a whole discussion at preschool about stealing (took an ornament off a tree to give to a kid on “bring in an ornament day”) and has now led my son to refer to me as “a stealer”.
I would not change any of it of I could. I found out that not only do I enjoy (sometimes) being home but I’m also pretty good at it too (sometimes). These two crazy boys provide me with hours of entertainment and plenty of material for either a book or stand-up career.
So I hope you enjoy my little blog. If anything, you can laugh at me trying to do my best and sometimes falling flat on my face.
