Loose Screws

We’ve all got a few loose around here, but seeing as how it was my idea to build an addition doubling the size of our small country house by ourselves, I’m probably the worst offender. And since my lumberjack of a significant other listened, he’s probably not far behind in the loose-screw department.

Here I am. Short, crazy, and at my most comfortable in workboots and my John Deere hat, spending time with my favorite tool, the Makita. Which isn’t to say I don’t have an Actual Real Job that requires regular showering and talking like I’m not a truck driver. Between acting like a professional and spending the rest of my time playing in the dirt, or updating this website, my life has struck a pretty interesting balance. If you’re that interested and want to know more, you can read all about my story here.

And MysteryMan, my own personal lumberjack who is not a lumberjack at all actually, but an Actual Professional Engineer. One of his favorite things is for me to write about him on this website. Right after 1.) pretending this website doesn’t exist, and 2.) rolling his eyes at me. Luckily he’s got a fabulous sense of humor, and a mile-wide streak of patience. We like to poke fun of each other and our relationship, and I like to do both of those things all over the Internet, but believe me when I tell you I love him dearly. He’s awesome, he can grow a mean beard, and he’s all mine. Back off ladies.
