Amanda Probst - Journal - Word of the day.

THE NITTY GRITTY

HELLO

Hi. I'm Amanda...a happy wife and mom to three awesome guys. We've lived here in Fort Collins for more than 20 years and are proud to call it home. Before moving to CO, I worked at a city attorney's office, making use of my law and Master's degrees from Duke. After settling in Fort Collins, I homeschooled my three (now teenage and older) sons and was delighted to experience music classes, soccer, karate, swim team, archery, Science Olympiad, First Lego League, parkour, and climbing (not all at the same time!). From 2005-10, I was also a contributing editor for a national scrapbooking magazine, authoring a book and a couple of monthly columns. From 2009-10, I founded and ran the Good Grief Blog. I enjoy learning new things, spending time with my family, volunteering with The Matthews House, traveling and indoor rock climbing.

Word of the day.

For Christmas, we got an awesome "new word a day" calendar. We've been enjoying it! (Our storage room, btw, is now being called our "omnium gatherum" and the tear-off page is taped to the door, lol.) Anyhow, yesterday's word was:

Is it wrong that, before the boys had a chance to actually read the definition, I told them that it meant Micah...because I can't seem to "mute" him? ;)
