Two blog posts in one day. No, the world isn’t coming to an
end. Had I seen this challenge before five minutes ago, I would’ve only posted
for the prompt instead of my earlier book review. Oh wells. This is from author
Natalie Grueninger. I’ve only recently heard of her and her blog. One of her
focuses is the Tudors and she’s written a book about them. I happen to be an
obsessed anglophile, in particular, the Tudor family so I was excited to
discover Natalie’s blog.
Anyway, she has proposed a daily blogging challenge. Here are the prompts if you’re interested in joining in. Today’s prompt is “the story of
your life in 250 words”. Here goes…
I was born in Ohio in 1977. My parents divorced when I was
three. I lived with both my mom and then my dad at different phases of my life
while growing up. I have a brother who is six years my senior and a
step-adopted sister who is four years my junior.
When I was 17, I met my future husband. We had been together
for seven months before I turned up pregnant at 18. We got married after being
together for over a year and just before our first daughter was born. He joined
the Marines in 1997 and we had our second daughter in 1999. We’ve lived in
Florida, California, Vermont, North Carolina, California (again) and we just
moved to Florida. I loved California and North Carolina but hated living in
Vermont. Too cold.
My husband and I both just got our undergrads and are now pursuing
our graduate degrees. I’ve come to terms with being a student for the rest of
my life, lol. While you might think being a perpetual student and a military
wife would be challenging, being the parent of two teenaged girls has been the
biggest challenge of my life. I’m also beginning to think that finding a job is
going to be in the top five of my life challenges.
The story of my life: When my house is clean, nobody comes over. When it's a mess, people drop by unexpectedly.
