First Post!!

Ok, this is my very first post, I hope I'm doing this right.  I've been working on my blog formatting for the past few hours, trying to make it look presentable. I'm so excited to be here, although I don't have any followers yet (not worried...yet).  This is a big step for me and I hope to use this format as a networking tool as well as a sort of journal of my life.  

As you may have seen, this blog is about the ups and downs of my life in rural Nebraska after being transplanted here (kicking and screaming) in 2003. Of course Andrew (hubby) hated living in my beloved Colorado.  I tell you, to this day, every time I tell people that they say, "how could someone hate Colorado"?  I know...I agree!!! Now, my intention is not to talk negatively of Nebraska, not at all.  What I have found is that there are positives and negatives in every situation and that I have developed a soft spot for this Midwestern state I now call home.

I'll share with you my trials and tribulations and my daily encounters with this Bittersweet Midwest Life.
