Getting to know me.....

Hello all,

This is my very first post and I'm so excited to get started and hopefully get all sorts of fans...errr followers. ;-}

First off, lemme tell you about me:

I'm 33 and in a long-term (13 years) relationship with a hot man (The HottieHubby) that I call my husband and have kids with, only we're not really married due to the fact that this stupid state we live in doesn't recognize "Common-law" marriage. (I know...sounds kinda "hillbilly" but the reasons we can't get married are complicated and better left to a different post.)


Anyway, we each have one daughter from previous relationships that don't live with us (more complicated BS) and together we have two beautiful children (a girl - Princess; and a boy - Superhero).


HottieHubby and I have always known we were soul-mates from day one. We were both born and raised in South Texas...very south. And, we are both adopted.

THE HOTTIE HUBBY

From the moment I saw him, I knew I wanted to be with that guy (at least for the night) and as luck would have it, even after each saying we didn't want a relationship at the time, we ended up spending every night together after that until we decided to move away (far away) together two months later.

See, back then I was living with my best friend at the age of twenty and I was partying every night of the week and I had three f-buddies and a boyfriend in jail (don't ask---I'm not sure I'll ever be ready to explain him). Well after a night of much needed catch-up sleep, I rode to a bar with my friend (she was just checking if her jerk boyfriend was there after another of their usual fights). I was waiting in the car with my daughter while she quickly checked the bar for him. On her way into the bar, she ran into some guys that she had met at a party the night before (while I was sleeping). One of them was a tall and bigger guy, and the other one (HottieHubby) was 5'8", well-toned (not too muscular, just enough to make you drool), perfectly tanned, sharply dressed and with the most perfect facial features (dark eyebrows, chiseled jawline, a perfect nose and very kissable lips). She gave each of them a quick hug and went inside the bar. As soon as she got back to the car I immediately asked her who that guy she had hugged before she went in was. Of course...SHE DIDN'T REMEMBER WHO SHE HUGGED!!! (Ughhh) Later that night, we returned to that same bar and her friend Norma (the bartender) met us at the door. As soon as she met me, she told me she liked me for her brother and I should come inside to meet him. Well wouldn't you know....it was the Hottie from earlier!!! I was ecstatic and the rest is history.

Well we ended up moving to Missouri first and then had a wild hair that told us to follow some friends and move to Wisconsin....what the hell were we thinking!?!?! We are a VERY long way from home.

OUR CHILDREN

We have two beautiful children that are pretty well-behaved considering that both their parents had pretty wild beginnings (we got so lucky). Our daughter is eleven and our son is nine. They are each unique in their own ways.

Princess is very smart and sociable (this she gets from me) but unfortunately, can be very cold and vindictive (this is from her daddy).

Superhero is a very loving kid with a big heart (Me again) that hates school and would rather play sports and play videogames than do anything that requires too much thinking (daddy).

OUR EVIL MOTHERS

HottieHubby's mother is a independently wealthy, proper woman with a sharp-tongue that can seriously cut a bitch. All these qualities are fine and dandy right....WRONG!!! Since the day she met me, she decided that I was all wrong for her son and didn't waste any time in letting me know it with some harsh [but "proper" (Have you ever had anyone tell you off pleasantly and politely? Just like that!)] jabs and by trying to change everything about me from the way I dressed and looked to the way I ironed his jeans. (Huh???)

My mother is a housewife that always resented me for being Daddy's girl and never let me live down any mistakes I encountered through life.

-For this I must say that I was a pretty smart and good kid that hardly ever got into trouble and loved school until I reached tenth grade. In the second semester of tenth grade, I met the wrong guy and started skipping school everyday to go to the beach (I LOVE the beach!) and ended up pregnant at sixteen. Well when she found out, she kicked me out of the house until my Daddy packed his bags and was ready to come with me (I paid for this too) I continued school and graduated with my class so it really didn't affect my love of school and wanting to graduate high school.

Well that's the story of my life so far, I think, I hope I didn't leave anything important out.
