I’m kind of a big deal.

Welcome to mommablogsalot.com, my little corner of the blogiverse. If this is your first time here, let me introduce myself and my blog and tell you a little bit more about us:

Me : Jen, age %*&^#

My name is Jen and I am the extremely proud mom of two teens, the dog-mom to a neurotic one-eyed dog with no end of health issues, and the wife to a very tall bearded fellow who does most of the grown upping in our family but also spends a ton of time playing video games for good measure. Basically, I’m living the dream.

When I started this blog we were new parents, moving to the Midwest for a new job, and figuring out how adulting worked. Today my husband has been at that job for over fifteen years, the kids are grown, and I’m finding grey hairs and googling perimenopause symptoms. Are we old now? How can we tell for sure and what does that mean? Can I still wear punny t-shirts and watch tween romance movies? Am I supposed to have a moisturizing regimen or a 401K yet? What exactly is a 401k? I’m not sure.

What I know: I’m a fangirling super mom who homeschooled through a pandemic. I love crochet, watercolor, wine bars, dungeons and dragons, reading past my bedtime, complaining about going to the gym, bragging about going to the gym, mango cream chai lattes, and British tv.

I’m Jen aka momma

Welcome to my cozy little corner of the internet dedicated to a lifetime of too many hobbies, caffeine in sporadic doses, occasional overthinking and whims of whimsy.
