How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Coming out of Hiding?

in Everyday on 11/10/10

I’ve been “outed”. 

Turns out going to a social media conference forces you to show your real face.  I went to Blissdom Canada and met people in real life.  Weird right?  I guess it was inevitable, I mean I couldn’t walk around with a bag over my head forever.  At this point my friends and family still don’t know I blog, so I can continue to make grammatical mistakes, blog about sex and indelicate bathroom situations, and b*tch about Mommy cliques.  But I’ve been thinking, is it fair for every other blog in the world yeah like I’m that popular to be flashin my picture around when I have not even posted one of myself yet??

So with that in mind.  Here you go. This is me:

….and just so you know.

I am not the girl who can pull off the two cute pony tails…not even at home.

I am not the life of the party, even if I wish I was, but I do host a fabulous one.

I love a great glass of wine, but wow, wine hates me now. Instant headache.  Same deal with hotdogs.

I can pretty much talk to anyone.

I am a rule follower.  A bit of a goody two shoes.  Sexy right?

I am prompt.

I detest liars, I get this from my Dad. 

I am one of the few people who adore the sunshine, but prays for rain when the barometer takes a dip.  Me and weather changes do not get along.

I am 5 pounds ..nope..10 pounds over weight and sick about it.  Having had a rib/back injury doesn’t seem to be a good enough excuse anymore.

I adore all things popcorn, chocolate, anything baked and Starbucks.  Yummmm.  This is not helping.

I crave travel.  Adore the planning and am usually thinking about my next trip before the suitcases are unpacked.

I firmly believe in the power of true love.

I hate having to ask for help.

I can be passive aggressive, not sneaky, just quietly annoyed.

I love my children with my entire heart…so much that it hurts sometimes.

I am blessed to be married to my best friend.

Just so you know…..

So there you go, I feel all vulnerable and naked now.  So now it is your turn, go on spill…what should I know about you?

      I knew it! You really are one of those beautiful mommies. Great list. We have quite a few things in common…other than the young and beautiful thing. 🙂

      So, what should you know about me?

      I’d rather be with my husband than anyone in the entire world. I have no fear of getting involved when I see someone being hurt. I am a master practical jokester.

      What you should know about me…
      I think you are absolutely beautiful! What have you been hiding for so long???
      I hate liars.
      I eat far too much chocolate.
      I also have 10 lbs to lose.
      My kids are my life.
      I think family becomes before everything.
      I will always tell you I am 25!

      This list could go on for eternity……

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

    Throw back and a little travel inspo….

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom 

I promise - once you try #HomeExchange you will never look at travel the same way again! Follow the link in my bio for all the deets. ❤️

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.

If you want to travel more often and live like a local, you need to check out @homeexchangecom.
