Were I am Now

We live in a "dirty" yellow, two bedroom house. There are three children and my husband and I. Its old and everything needs to be replaced. We wont to eventually move out of town, so we don't want to put any money in it that we don't have too. Don't get me wrong we keep a clean house, and live comfortably, but if we don't have to fix something we don't waste are money fixing the house. We live in Crawfordsville, Indiana. Its in the middle of Indianapolis and the Illinois boarder. All the bad weather either happens above or below us. It has a population of just under 16,000. Its small enough were you can go into Wall mart and see someone that you know, but big enough that everyone really doesn't care about you. Your only living here cause you were born here or married in, like me.
I'm an Avon Representative, and a stay at home mom. I'm trying to put together a women's group, but it's going really slow. It seems everybody is to busy not doing anything. I sew and scrapbook and try to work on genealogy. My husband Brian was born (in the old hosptail) and raised here. Works at Fairfiled Manufacturing, in Lafayette. He has been there for about five years. It's about a 45min drive one way.
We have only been married for two and a half years now. With one child between us. I have three other children from relationships before. We work hard and sacrifice what we can to pay the bills and keep food on the table. We live a simple life with modern convinces.

First Blog!

I never wrote a blog before so these will be intersting.
I chose the tittle An Ordinary Woman because I always wanted to write a book about my life. I see all these other people that are famous, survied some tragic event, or even this one women wrote about here experiace of being pergnat. I dont have a PhD. or even graduated collage school. Im not famous but I have had a very intersing life to say the least. Why cant I write a book? I think one reason is Im scared about the reaction from family and people that know me. I live in a town that I dont know and people dont know me except what they see and I tell them, which is not much.
