A little introduction about my little family and I.

I am a single mom, a massage therapist (no, I do not do happy endings), and I am completely losing my mind. Did I mention that I'm a single mom of twins? Yep, that's right. I saw that two for one special and thought it was a phenomenal deal. Wow, let me tell you this, for all those out there think that having one kid is crazy, try two. Oh and I mean at the same time. I give so much credit to all the other mommies out there that have had multiples, WE ARE AWESOME!

My children, whom I will call Thing 1 and Thing 2, are soon to be turning 2 in a couple days. Yes, I know the whole "terrible 2s" ordeal everyone has been warning me about are going to happen starting the 23rd. Let me give you a little hint, it started when they were conceived. Thing 1 is a beautiful peanut of a girl, while Thing 2 is a handsome dare devil of a boy. Their mission in life..to put mommy in a nut house before they turn 18.


A little overview of the last two years to put you up to speed with us.

When I say adventure, I mean adventure. My twin minions arrived 5 weeks early, Thing 1 took 6 weeks to come home while Thing 2 took 3 weeks. I should have known then that Thing 1 has her own timing for EVERYTHING. When the cute little bundles came home it was something that I had never been able to prepare for. I had even nannied twins from infancy and let me tell you this, when you are a parent 24/7 nothing else compares. 
I have a hand full of friends of whom I will refer to as The Incredibles. If not for them, I do believe that I would have been instituted.
In the last two years we have moved about 6 times. Or at least it has felt like that. I absolutely HATE moving. And as of a week ago, I left my home in hopes of setting a better future for my little family in the great state of New York. For those of you not affiliated with New York, Upstate is absolutely gorgeous and mind numbing.

So from here on out, this is where our adventure picks up. Hope you all enjoy this as much as I will,
The Insane Single Mommy
