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.

Randomness.

Apparently, I've been "tagged" by the lovely Pamela. So, I'm supposed to share 7 random things about myself. Here goes:

1. I'm one of the odd people who loves the smell of coffee but does NOT like to drink it. (The only way coffee is to be ingested, in my opinion, is mixed with ice cream.)

2. One of the sayings I've heard the very most this month is "BUT I'M ON YOUR TEAM!" Yes, yelled usually. Said by Asher to Noah.

3. I don't mind watching the same show over and over...whether it be a total chick flick like "Sweet Home Alabama" or Micah's favorite of late, "Jo Jo's Circus."

4. I'm still really bummed that "Alias" ended.

5. I might love organizing my supplies more than actually using them. Might. ;)

6. My fingers are double jointed and it freaks Nathan out.

7. I eat hamburgers and sandwiches in a circle...always eat around the outside first. I don't know why. I've caught Noah and Micah doing the same thing. Hee hee.

Oh, and one more random thing. I'm notorious for breaking chain letters. Hence. I won't "tag" seven more people but will simply challenge anyone reading this who has a blog to share... ;)
