Introduction I'm just a mom in the world. A crunchy Catholic mama of 6 trying to make sense of it all and stay positive. 5 boys here & 1 in heaven. One awesome man who I get to grow old with. I help new moms breastfeed. I`m happy. I don`t go to shows or dance clubs every night but I would if I could. Where`s the nanny? When I see her she`s SO fired! One of my boys is super sweet and sensitive, another one is a holy terror. I learn a ton from all of them daily. Like Nigella says, as any parent of small children knows,there comes a point in the day where you can`t go any further without a drink! I love cocktail hour. I`d like nothing more than to be with my family and some good friends surrounded by tropical plants drinking a margarita listening to the Eagles. I don`t care about trendy, I like that grungy 70`s vibe.
Interests attachment parenting, a bunch of other stuff, ecological breastfeeding, intactivism, cloth diapering, organic food, cooking, wine, kayaking, tropical plants, Germany, Chile, rock stars, brewing beer
Favorite Movies Queen Margot (the most beautiful eye candy ever), Dracula 2000 (so campy), Requiem For a Dream (so damn depressing)
Favorite Music Massive Attack, The Eagles, INXS, Soundgarden, my brother keeps me hip too, but techno/trance/house is mostly all I play around the house.
Favorite Books Animal Dreams by Barbara Kingsolver was the last greatest one this summer
