Gonna try this thing out here....*S*

Okay, so I'm new to blogging.....I've never been really good at keeping a journal or diary, but I think this might be a different situation. Heck, I'm on the computer often enough, so keeping this going shouldn't be too hard.....right?

At any rate, a little about me. As the name of the blog says, I have three boys - and they keep me BUSY BUSY BUSY. The oldest is involved in Boy Scouts, art classes, church choir, and loves to read (takes after his mother, he does!). The middle one is a Cub Scout and a dancer, and also sings in his church choir. The youngest is a wannabe karate kid (haven't started lessons yet, but probably will next year), and does his best to keep up with his two older brothers and drive me crazy....LOL!

My husband is a tractor-trailer driver, and is gone all week, so I get to do the single mom thing for most of the time. He is home on the weekends, which is good - at least we get to see him regularly. Too many trucking families don't, and we appreciate that.

I am an Ed. Tech. (paraprofessional) at our local Middle School (7th and 8th grades), where I work as an inclusion aide for students who need a little extra help in the classrooms. I am applying to the ETEP program at the University of Southern Maine, and am hoping to be enrolled in the 2 year special ed/secondary ed program this summer. I am scheduled to take the PRAXIS exam on February 19th - and I'm a little nervous, since I haven't taken a "heavy duty test" in over 20 years, since I graduated from college.....ACK!

I have a home-based business, creating hand-dyed floss for counted cross stitch, and it keeps me occupied in those rare free moments I have with after-school activities and stuff. I also love to cross-stitch and read - both of which keep me up late at night and help me keep my sanity - they help me unwind after the boys have gone to bed. Right now I'm working on about 4 different projects - a Round Robin that belongs to a friend of mine in South Carolina, a Valentine's Day exchange, and Winter exchange, and an ornament or two.....somehow I think I'm managing to keep them straight, but you never know....LOL!

At any rate, that's a little about me. I'll post some more in a day or so - I just need to remember to do it!
