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.

Three quick things...

DateSaturday, January 24, 2009 at 10:49PM

First. I realized I haven't posted the last two weeks' Lists of Me pages. Here they are:

That second one was from this past week...we read the Value Tales book about Louis Pasteur and believing in yourself. I thought it might be fun to tackle a list like this...have you?

Second. Don't forget that you only have a few (okay, six) more days to complete a challenge layout for my January Month By Month challenge over at CK. The link to the group is over on the left side there, and details can be found in the group posts. This month's challenge is so easy (simply use orange, green and blue together on a layout), so there's really no excuse for not participating! :)

Third. I'm off to CHA in the morning and am totally stoked!! I'll update when I get home but will be busy the next few days. :) Woohoo!

Okay, I lied. One more quick thing. ;) I know there were some questions about my 2009 Weekly album and promise to address those when I get home from CHA, okay? Just wanted you to know I'm not ignoring those. Thanks!
