Hi.

Welcome to my blogs. I document my adventures in family, fun, and menopause - from two sides: sentimental, and just mental. With "The View From the Minivan" you'll find that life should be laughed at, and I hope you find a smile.  With "Fbomb Mom Blog" you'll find my f'n mental take of the same content I sapped about in the first blog.  It's my "Eat Pray RANT" at the universe.
