I am a busy mother of three kids (one of my own plus two step-kids), & wife to a brilliant software programmer. I’m a triathlete, a cook who burns water, & CFO of my husbands paycheck. With one kid becoming a fireman and marrying the sweetest bride, two step-kids in college, plus camping, & training for the occasional triathlon, life around the McIntyre household always feels like a roller coaster ride, and gives me plenty of material to write about.

Thank you so much! I’m sorry for the late reply. We are moving and my brain has been elsewhere this week. Thank you for this. It’s an honor! :). I will follow up on it tomorrow.

Thank you so much! Sorry for the delayed response. I’ve been sick all week with the flu!
It is everywhere, hope you feel better very soon.
Hi Dana,
I’d like to nominate your blog for the Liebster award! I’m planning a post (probably next weekend) that will outline the recognition. Would you accept?

Hi Dana, I just nominated you for the Liebster Award!
Love your style, I reckon you’d be a great advocate for the notion that if all else fails, just remain out of control and see what develops! Take care…
Yep. I’ve been known to fly by the seat of my pants. It’s worked so far. :). Thanks for reading!
you are a good writer DANA!
Thank you ..
Aww – thank you so much! I’m enjoying writing and it’s so nice to know that people enjoy reading what I’m writing! 🙂
