It's a long trip alone...
...so bring a friend or two for the ride.

Basic Info| Name: | purpledogmommy |
|---|
BioBorn and raised in northern California. Have lived all over the US, due to two semi-deadbeat husbands and my own lack of foresight. Got smart in 2004. Got hitched, in 2006, to a real-life native of Tennessee ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
jre110 and he is one helluva man. Gave birth to my baby girl in April of 2007, already a proud mother of a 17-year old boy/man, step-monster to a 17 and 19 year-old, and loving mommy to 1 doggie and 1 funny kitty. I'm currently a stay at home mommy but I am not "crunchy" by any means (but it's totally cool if you are, my way isn't the only way to raise a happy baby!). I believe in gay rights and gay marriage. I try very hard to respect your views, so I'll expect the same from you...:)
We recently moved to the Chicago-land area. I love the snow, but hate the wind. Can't have it all, right?
Our decision for me to stay home with our daughter was one we didn't take lightly. So, you'll hear me gripe about money sometimes. But what we lack in money, we more than make up for in humor and love.
I love my family, I love my friends. I'm compassionate, silly, frugal and have a temper. Problem with that? Be gone then!
If you are on my FL, it's cause I think you are interesting, funny and/or worthy of my attention in some way. If you want off, you need only say the word and it's done. If you want on, ask and we'll see.
So lets recap, my LJ is friends only for a reason. I do NOT tolerate a lot of stupid behavior. So, hey, if you are known to be stupid, move along now....
