i am:
amanda
a girl with razor sharp wit and intellect; over achiever, procrastinator, and worry-wart.
someone who doesn’t sugar coat words and likes profanity for emphasis.
a work in progress trying to learn more about life, feed those around her, and work to remain an eternal optimist and adventurer with a toddler, teenager, husband, baggage, and mother in tow.
married into the USAF.
a mom trying to teach her girl multiculturalism, humanitarianism, feminism, humor, and strength.
a Texas girl born in Mexico; went to college and lived in New England for a while, and returned in 2002.
a jill of many trades, mistress of none; i’ve worked as a programmer, lackey, retail monkey, barista, and currently owner of a san antonio doula agency.
a rockstar, pastry genius, suburban gardener, modern hippie, photographer, world traveler, runner. not in that order.

Thank you!
