About 10 years ago, I started writing a blog called I Swore I'd Never Live in Wisconsin (side note: 10 years later, here I am still in Wisconsin) and somewhere along the way I abandoned it. After much searching (not really, a couple Google searches) I can't find it so I am starting fresh.
I never lived in a bunker, but I've been living as Kimmie Schmidt before Ellie Kemper made it cool.
But, back to getting back on the blogging bandwagon. Writing is what I do, and I've missed taking the time to just write for myself. Plus, I think I'm hilarious and this gives me an outlet to be hilarious.
A lot's changed since I gave this a go 10 years ago. Here's the cast of characters:
 |
| Zach - husband, soccer enthusiast, grumpy old man (except he's only 30) |
 |
| Augie - son, trouble maker, goofball, Daniel Tiger fan |
 |
| Max - 100-pound German shepherd mix who thinks he's a puppy still that can fit on your lap. Possibly the most spoiled member of the family. |
 |
| And me |
Over the last 10 years, I've learned a few things from a lot of people. A smile goes a long way (Just give them that Kimmie smile, as my mom says). There are a lot of really stupid people in the world, it's best to try your hardest to ignore them. "Kill them with kindness" is shockingly effective. You should always carry a snow shovel in your car in the winter in Wisconsin. Learn from your mistakes, and then move on.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the show!
