My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

    I’m lovin’ the new Dell Studio Hybrid Desktop PC. It is 80% smaller than the standard desktop and in addition to coming in 4 colors, also boasts a sleek design. For those of us commited to going green it also uses 70% less power than the standard desktop. Mighty for its size it has 3GB memory, 250GB hard drive, SuperMulti DVD drive, 8-in-1 card reader, wireless mouse and keyboard and is loaded with Windows Vista Home Premium.
