About me!
I'm Meredith, happily married to "A," and the proud, but stressed and often yelling mother of 2nd grade boy/girl twins and a boy in kindergarten. I am also recently diagnosed with breast cancer, which has caused a resurgence in my desire to blog because in my twisted mind, few things are funnier than a prosthetic boob. Thanks for reading and if you want to PM me, I can be found at meredith dot vartuli @gmail.com.Questions? Comments? Observations?
