Name:
Location: Utah, United States

I'm a very blessed woman married to my absolute favorite person, Mark. He and I have been best friends for 18 years, were high school sweethearts, and now have 10 children blended together. I'm a quite passionate person. I like ice cream straight from the carton, thinly sliced cheese, fresh fruit, cereal late at night, homegrown garden tomatoes, and turkey alvacado sandwiches. Dancing in the kitchen, singing out loud in the car, wrestling around with my children, playing charades, watching any performance whether art or sport my children are involved with, cuddling with Mark, and reading a good book, soaking in a hot bath are my favorite things to do. It's my joy to be in a partnership with Mark in parenting so many wonderful children and in walking through life together as his wife. It is my passion to advocate for women in the pregnancy, childbirth, lactation, and childrearing stages of life. It is also a joy to ally myself with the Shaklee Corporation in promoting optimal health for persons and our planet. Bottom line is: I'm blessed! I'm happy!

Yeah, ok, so I told you about the ridiculous drivers this morning...it just doesn't stop! I went to get my little kindergarten girl and, remember the SUV that made me mad this morning for parking in the DRIVE WAY, well, a blue minivan was parked in the drive way at the elementary with another minivan behind her, leaving me out in the street with others behind me, when she should have pulled forward...she was just camped out there! The way this works is that you enter the parking lot on the right, move around the outside of the lot in a counter-clockwise direction, exit on the left side; you're entering and exiting out of the same drive way. There are cars coming out on the left, cars moving long the edge picking up children, we're waiting behind this woman who apparently thinks she's at a campsite rather than getting because she simply refuses to move to the right when all of a sudden someone gets out of her van and she does a U-turn right there in front of the on-coming cars and "parks" AGAIN!

OH, and let's not forget the "loving, concerned, safety-minded" parents who double-park, holding up traffic in the street to yell for their children to get in the car making them manuver between on-coming traffic, stand in the lane their parent are stopped in, and climb into their car with the other lane driving past them...yesterday, I was blocked from leaving where I was parked on the side of the road while this woman did that very thing...she's lucky one of her children wasn't hurt...I mean, where's the wisdom of encouraging children to dart in and out of traffic so that you don't have to go through the trouble of finding a decent parking place?!!!
