susanko : MyBlogHer Profile

I'm a mom of 4 amazing kids that make me laugh at myself, at being a parent and taking myself, and learning to "chill". I've been married for 22 years to a guy that loves me even though my type A personality can be "exciting". My best friends is my black lab, sure I have other friends but each day when we take our 2 walks, it's a relaxing bonding experience with him and nature. If you are a dog or pet lover, then you understand. I never had a pet growing up and all my life I wanted a "puppy/dog". He was born within days of my borthday and in 2012, we will both be the exact same age (I used the standard 7 year dog year converter.) Yes I am as crazy about my kids, but I've learned you can brag about your dog but not your kids:) I LOVE Traveling, reading, fashion and working out. I include a bunch of great books or new hot articles in my blogs to share knowledge which is power:) If you're intersted I'll got great travel tips but I don't want to be considered snooty because I visited some cool places. Looking forward to reading your thoughts and ideas.
