Welcome to the Insanity :)

Hi All,

My name is Jennifer but everyone just calls me Tink (short for Tinkerspell- something about me being petite and fairy like and being non mainstream with my religious choices- the blonde hair probably didn't help either... personally I think it's just another way for my brother to tease me:) ) and I currently live in the Tacoma, Washington area. I am engaged to an Army Medic and am out here because, well, it happens to be where Ft. Lewis is located- which also happens to be where he is stationed. Sounds logical right? I like to think so too! I have two children from a previous marriage, my son lives with us in Tacoma and my daughter lives with her father in Colorado. My daughter is flying up to spend two weeks with us on Wednesday so things are very hectic over here at the moment. Ok hectic is putting it lightly, it's more like spastic, frantic and just outright chaotic... yes that sounds about right.

I just wanted to take a moment and welcome you to the somewhat organized chaos that is my life! Fair warning I do love to write but alas seem to have the capacity to ramble on as well (I can honestly say my mother made me do it! She's a reporter with the newspaper in Clarksville, Tennessee- hey, I had to learn somewhere right?)

There will be times when it seems like I'm jumping topics- don't worry, it's probably becuase I am. I have an eleven year old son that is both Autistic and ADHD. This simply means I rarely complete any thought process before it's interuppted by another one (and they said he was going to have concentration issues ;-) )

I look forward to reading everyone's post and hope that all of you enjoy reading mine and leave with at least a grin if not a full blown smile:)
