About Author

   I am a single working mom (as the title of the blog implies) who has worked in the retail field for 12 years now. I have been a clerk in a video store, worked in a tanning salon, grocery (as cashier, produce associate, floral, melon bar, customer service desk, carts, and office) and  I have been a waitress. I have an AAS degree in Library Information and Services and am currently working on obtaining a BA, with hopes to one day earn a Masters. I was, at one time, a high school drop-out, so I am proud of my college education and think that it deserves mention.
   I have one child, who is almost 11, and I also have a 6 year old niece and a 5 year old nephew, whom I am very close too. Working and parenting, and just life in general, gives you many stories to tell, and I like to tell stories. I love to read and I love to write, so starting a blog seemed like a natural extension of that. I also love to laugh, and I hope that my blog reflects that. I especially love to laugh at myself and the ridiculous, ludicrous, asinine situations that I can find myself in, because if you can't laugh then what is the point?
   Happy reading and I hope that you enjoy what you find in these blog posts.
