My name is Melisa. They call me Mel. In 4th grade I didn't like that because that was a boys name. Now it seems to fit. I have a kick ass husband, Bob, who rocks my world, and puts up with me. And I have two great kids who I haven't messed up too badly yet. My boy is 5, my girl is 4.
We are both from big cities. He's from Chicago, I was raised in Houston. We've lived in some of the largest cities in the country apart and together, and somehow we ended up in a small town in Oklahoma. We don't know what wicked twist of fate brought us here, but here we are. We have three insanely neurotic dogs. A psycho border collie who desperately wants to eat our nice neighbor. A chihuahua with jacked up teeth, who was abandoned at my Nanas house and my son fell in love with. And our beloved rat terrier Lexi. We got her when we lived in Michigan. She's 1/2 Canadian. When she barks, she always ends it with "eh"?
At press time we are considering buying another home. We have outgrown our humble abode and feel like now is the time to go for it with real estate being in the crapper. The flip side to that is real estate is in the crapper so we can't really sell ours. So in a time of economic crises, what is the smartest move to make? That's right boys and girls, take on another mortgage. Hey, we're a one income household, we can handle it. Like I said, living with me is never boring.
