Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

I'm moving. :-)

My journal now has a permanent home on my website thanks to my computer-savvy husband. PLEASE come visit me at:

http://www.punkin-press.com/wordpress

Happy 4th of July to one and all!

    What's the worst pain you've ever been in?

    Photos from trip and quick recap to come shortly. :-)

    My c-section. Not fun.

    Who is your favorite celebrity? What do they do that inspires you?
