I am learning the ropes of becoming a blogger and I have been staring at Andru silly mug of a picture on my blog since I started, so I am trying, while he is gone in Las Vegas for CES, to figure out how to get his mug off my page and replace it with my own incredible image and profile (wink, wink), lest you come to believe that Andru is really me, in disguise. Or something like that. So be patient with me while I try to figure this out, I am doing what Technorati told me to do on claiming my own blog—hopefully I don’t royally screw this up.

My name is Monica Edwards, and this is my blog—or you could also call it, my impressions of the world that revolves around me. I am a wife, and a mother of two beautiful boys. I have problems with writer’s block often so there are many lapses in between posts but I hope to get better as I learn about all this blogging mumbo jumbo. If you want to know why I started blogging go to my second post, I believe, and I try to explain there.

I could describe myself as a woman, who graduated high school, promptly moved out of the house and while working two jobs, entered into the party stage of my life. After 3 years of letting my hair down and two counts of alcohol poisoning, I then married the first man who told me he loved me. I was young, what can I say? I then went on to have a baby at 23, my first son, who is now 12.

Fast-forward 12 years later and here I am, living with my now second and last husband, as he better never divorce me, my oldest son, and my youngest, who is going to be turning 3 in a few days. I have stopped working the retail job I had for 13 years because my husband is my sugar daddy and he takes care of all of us with the amount of hours he has put into developing and running his own business, now a success, thanks to his hard wok and passion.

I am now a stay-at-home mother, a job that is nothing to sneeze at, yet I also need an outlet for me. Thus my blog. I will try to my utmost ability to always have integrity in whatever I write about, and always have the permission of anyone that I choose to make the subject of one of my posts, I will always keep in mind that all that I write will be to the glory of God. Yes, I am a Christian. I try to be a good one, someone that does not contradict the beliefs that I hold dear, but being human and therefore utterly hopeless, I will falter and fail in my quest to be as good as I can possibly be, but knowing God and his bountiful grace, He will forgive those moments as I hope all my readers will. If anyone disagrees with my opinions, thoughts or beliefs, that is your right and privilege, but I ask that in leaving comments, please refrain from the vulgar and nasty comments that I have read on other blogs—really if you don’t like me, don’t read my blog, save the angry rants, it is just a waste of energy.

That said, I will most likely replace this profile with another when Technorati gives me the green light, so look for more juicy details of my life in a future post.
