My first time...

If you are reading this, you are a part of something very special - - my first time as a blogger! I have always come late to the new trends in technology - I didn't get a DVD player until after I graduated from college, I didn't get an iPod until after law school and I didn't join Facebook until like 2 months ago! But, once I quit being an old geezer and join the revolution, I always find myself wondering how I've lived without it.

Hopefully, blogging will bring the same joy to my life! If not, it can be one more abandoned project I leave behind.

So, here I am. Sitting in my new "home office" in the rarely visited upstairs of our recently purchased home in Cayce, Mississippi, typing at my "new" desk that Stephen and Kayla let me borrow and once again putting off work that I need to be doing. And when I finish this, I have another project up my sleeve that I found after, what else, playing on the internet - never mind that I have 10 more cabinet doors downstairs waiting to be sanded so that I can begin step 12,000 of 15,067,259 in the life consuming task that has been refinishing my kitchen cabinets - and lets not even mention that I still have to paint the walls and do the faux tile backsplash in there all while drafting an appellate brief due by the end of the month!

I have been experiencing Life as a Womack now for almost 2 1/2 years - - almost 5 if you count from when Drew and I started dating, and I couldn't be happier. Drew has gone from selling wood, to bricks, now to pipes (which now that I write it, all sound like euphemisms for selling himself, drugs and then drug paraphernalia, but I swear that's not the case!) I finally have the one job I've always wanted - being a mother. And Reese is getting bigger by the day and getting into everything. Overall, things are good.

But, I think this is enough for now, and I'll have to say that was surprising less painful than I thought my first time would be!!
