Introducing...Me!

My name is Pamela, Pam to my friends, PS to my online friends. The title of my blog comes from a song title of one of my favorite songs of the 80's and seems to represent my life, lately.

I am 45 years old, a bohemian hippie chick at heart, a wife, a mom, a friend...you get the picture. I have been married to my sweetheart for 19 years and we have a 16 year old daughter that I like to call the cheerleader. Cheerleading and tumbling are her life so it seems appropriate. Up until the cheerleader got her driver's license and car, I was a mom on the road, everyday, most of the day. I have been a stay at home mom since the cheerleader was born and lately, well, with the addition of the mentioned car, I find that my time, life and freedom are coming back to me. And, while in many ways, this is good, it also is making me realize that I seem to be changing, each and everyday. My new freedom is making me think and making me realize that it's time to plan the next part of my life.

What are those plans? Who knows. My life, from my earliest memories, has been about the carefree journey. I sort of just land where I need to be at that given time in my life. It sounds sort of ditzy but if you know me, you know that I can be ditzy and fun and funny and crazy. So, planning, well, planning is never something I have given a great thought about. So, this blog, I am hoping, will help me take this new journey on a new road to discover how to be the mom of the independent teen, the wife of the busy man with his own busy life, the caretaker of the world's oddest cat, a friend with all of my friends who are also at this crossroad and how to do it while sipping coffee, sipping wine, dreaming of flipflop weather, flipping through fashion magazines, investigating the newest shades of makeup for the season...well, you get the picture.

I am about to discover my ever changing moods and taking you along for the ride. Seatbelts fastened!! I like to drive flamboyantly!! (my urbandictionary definition when I type in my name)
