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.

Just so you know...

DateMonday, February 8, 2016 at 11:35AM

...in case I go missing for awhile here, don't worry. I spent the weekend (7am-8:30pm on Saturday and then 7am-3:30pm on Sunday) helping at the boys' JOAD tournament. (The tournament went pretty well, though the boys didn't shoot great...having not really had enough practice over the last two weeks since we've had house guests.) Then I got to spend the evening enjoying the Super Bowl with my guys...WOOHOOOOO BRONCOS!! Then I pretty much crashed. ;)

So. Today I'm finally starting on my catching up from our 1.5ish weeks of having parents here. (Nathan's parents flew out Saturday morning.) Tomorrow, I'm "supposed" to start our homeschooling back up, though I've yet to prep stuff for that (but I really should start back up since we just took two weeks off). I also had to reschedule our appointment with our accountant that was set for today, since we didn't finish getting our tax information pulled together last week. (Well, my part is pulled together...but we need to get the business stuff in order.) 

So, I may be a bit quiet here this week while I get things back on track. ;)
