About Me

I'm in way over my head. I'm a stay at home mom of three kids that I never planned to have. I'm just trying to get to bedtime.

Thanks for leaving me a comment, I have a lot of things on your list that would be on my list too. The camping thing, if you go to a State Park, they have bathrooms complete with showers and hot water. Or at least the ones in Michigan do.
