Three heart-melting children call me Mommy. “Mommy.” Alright, if I’m being honest, we moved past that sleepy headline some time ago and hit the fast lane with “Mom.” Yes, I am a Mother, a housewife, and some would (be paid to) say, a make-up marvel.
Between raising kids and pretending I can cook, I’ve been painting the faces of grads, brides, T.V. personalities and models for fifteen years and dreaming of publishing a novel for almost twice as long. Finally scrapping the doodle books and crayons that have enslaved (but not swallowed) me, I’ve put pen to paper, or fingertips to keys as the case may be, and snatched back a big piece of what’s been missing.
Writing.
What words will tumble out onto these pages? Who knows? Certainly not I! Thus my Blog name; Hazy Shades of Me. (emphasis on the hazy) Fiction, non-fiction, reality and dreams. Hopefully, despite the fog, there will be moments of clarity and I will be able to peek…peak and…most crucially, pique through the haze.

Love what I’ve seen/read on your blog thus far! And your “about me” page is really capturing, in the sense that I can’t wait to read more posts! Check out my blog when you have a minute or two….actually who am I kidding, you only need a minute…I’m new at this so you only have a few posts to read so far.

Just wanted to let you know that for some reason I found a bunch of your comments on my posts in my spam filter. Just replied to them, so don’t think I was ignoring you!

Hey Phil…sorry for the delay in my response. I’ve been slightly discouraged as I’ve found out that all of my comments have been going into blogger’s spam folders and I don’t know why. Obviously pretty distressing. I’ve never spammed anyone!
Thanks for letting me know!
