I recently decided I wanted to give this whole blog thing a try. Not sure what makes me think anyone would want to read what I write, but I like to write so why not? I am a 51 year old mom of 3 with an accounting degree who now works in a college library. Sounds exciting, no? My kids are 22, 18 and 16 and they are awesome…..mostly. I also have a husband/4th child and 3 crazy dogs with whom I’d rather hang out more than pretty much anyone else.

My plan is to write about my experiences as a mom, both ups and downs, my work experiences and anything else that pops into my mind. I may review books, products etc. Who knows? Clearly not me. This is all new to me so I’m just going to wing it and see what happens. As the name of this blog suggests, I will be very candid, sometimes too much so but hey, why sugar coat life, right? My hope is that some posts make you laugh, think, or maybe even cry.  That is life and that is what I will be writing about mostly. I don’t know how often I will post. Again, I’ll figure that out as I go and I’ll do my best to keep each post relatively brief so I don’t take up too much of your time.

Thanks for reading…..if anyone actually did…

Candidly,

Donna
