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.

DateSaturday, November 7, 2009 at 02:29AM

Hi there. For those who don't know, we've been out of town...went to WA for about a week after Nathan's grandpa passed away on the 27th. We got home late Tuesday (11/3) and are still in the catching up mode. I'll update more as I can but wanted to at least point ya'll over to the Good Grief Blog where I've belatedly posted the latest challenge. :) Check it out!
