I am a mommy of two wonderful little boys. My oldest is "the devil" Matthew 8yrs old (Aug 98) and my "little monster" is Adam, 3yr(Aug2003). I work as a Facility Administrator, which pretty much means, anything that needs to be done "ask Vicki, she'll do it". From watering the lawn, replacing lite bulbs in the washrooms, to processing payroll and handling employee complaints. It keeps me very busy and stressed :). I'm on marriage no. 2; the first was a test run, and I was able to figure out all the icky stuff, I wouldn't want a partner to be. DH#2, is mild tempered and just caters to my every whim. Perfect!
