My Turn

Ann reporting.

I am the other half of AnnElyzing.  I am Elyzabeth's mother, Ann.

We are part of the new multi-generational households that are cropping up everywhere due to the current "down" economy - although in our case economy has nothing to do with it.  We CHOSE this lifestyle.  You see, I like my daughter.  We are not only family but she is my best friend.

I also love to cook, read, and create.  I am not nearly as talented as she is but I love to dabble.  I read incessantly, am opinionated as hell, and dispite the age factor, still worry about being a "tad" overwweight.   Our household consists of my daughter, her husband, myself, three dogs and three cats.  They are adorable - more about them later.

I am fortunate that my son-in-law actually LIKES me.  He does, however, like to take advantage of the situation.  Any work done on the house he tells the workman....this is what I want done but it has to be done to my Mother-in law's standards.  It's surprising how well that works.  More on that front later also. 

But, enough for my first effort.    I hope you will enjoy the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of Ann and Elyzabeth.
