Being a stay-at-home mom isn't what it used to be. Social commentary takes a maternal turn as thoughts on films, music, literature and writing all take the spotlight on how to rock this new chapter of my life.

Where in the World is Miss Chris?
I have been neglecting this very dedicated blog. I don't even want to look at my history to see the last time that I actually posted something. I'm more than a little embarrassed. So where have I been? I've been writing. That's right. Writing. A book. I actually have two plots (finished and everything) that I just need to flesh out. I'm pink with giddy that I have a direction with the current story I'm working on. I don't have a name for it yet but the working title is Best Friends.
Here's a little synopsis:
A boy and girl are best friends growing up, even into high school even though everyone thinks they're a couple, even their parent's who aren't really happy about it. After high school they go off to college and marry different people. They try to stay in contact as the years progress, but life gets in the way and they lose touch. But 25 years down the road they find each other again in the most unusual of ways.
I should try and supplement so that my writing doesn't get stale.
In the meantime, dig around. Imagine I've left you the keys to my house and letting take a tour without me.
Until next time,
Miss Chris

ENFJ
For those of you nerds out there, this four letter code holds a lot of meaning to us. It's the easiest way to figure out personality compatibility.
I've learned a few things about myself in the last few days. I'm a hopeless extrovert. On Saturday night, the hubby went to a friend's house to help paint and play games afterward. I was looking forward to complete control of the television and watch whatever I wanted to. Girls, you know what I'm talking about right?
I had the house to myself (besides the sleeping boy) around 7:30pm. That is early, like old folks' buffet dinner time for a Saturday night. So I immediately began browsing my Netflix queue, Hulu plus and my TiVo'd programs. I finally settled on What to Expect When You're Expecting not the best film to watch after having a miscarriage. But I did laugh at the completely overacted push scenes and the misery suffered by one of the characters during pregnancy along with her FIL's young wife who went through it like a champ. It was hilarious!
Before I finally settled on being alone with a sleeping boy. I was scrambling to find someone to come over and hang out with me. I used to love having the house to myself when I was a teenager and I wasn't even the oldest child, the youngest actually.
I need people and I hope they need me.
I recently attended the open house of my friend Katie's book release! That's right, I am personally friends with an author who is my age, by the way. (And I'm so excited to read it!) At this party I met a girl, who could have been my double, but with brown hair. I couldn't believe how much we had in common. Even her mom decorated wedding cakes! That's just creepy because my mom did too!
~ Happy reading!
