Who is Suzi?

So, who is Suzi, and what is this business about, "Suzi's World?"  I'm glad you asked!

First and foremost, I am a mother.  I am the blessed ruler of a blended family that was united in 2010.  I have a 13 year old daughter, Madison, and an 11 year old son, Nicholas, from my first marriage.  October 16, 2010, I married George, and, I then became stepmother to 13 year old Gabrielle.  Yes, George and I are raising two teenage girls who, for four months of the year, will be the same age.  Therefore, it is only fair that I admit to having lots of gray hair at age 34 (I color it myself every 4-6 weeks), and, I use wrinkle cream every day and night.  I have told the children I intend to give them the bill for my first Botox injection when that time comes.

This is me!
I am a wife.  Like all husbands, mine is *amazing* and never thinks I'm irrational, stubborn, or a poor cook.  Ha!  Marriage is work and I will never deny that in my world, but, it is also a journey I would never decide to ditch early (you know, before I die).  Despite my sarcasm, my husband George does rock.  He has carried me through personal tragedy and been my biggest supporter from the day we started dating in 2008.  Though he does find my obsession with HLN and the Real Housewives of (insert any city here) to be baffling at best.

I am a Mompreneur.  I own and operate an online baby nursery boutique, LuxuryBabyNursery.com.  Running my business from home probably sounds like a dream come true, and it is considering the flexibility it gives me (I am always home when one of the kids wakes up puking on Monday morning), but, it is work...as in, a real job.  Many people think I sit home and watch HLN all day (okay, that's sort of true) but, they also don't have any grip on what I am doing on the laptop that never leaves my side for the better portion of the day.  Four years after opening my business, I've stopped explaining...I'm out of breath.

I love HLN.  Yes, as in the legal news channel.  My obsession began in the summer of 2011 during the Casey Anthony murder trial.  I won't touch that verdict with the long end of a witch's broom stick, but, I am officially hooked on the trials that change our nation and seeking justice for victims.  And yes, watching HLN does mean I love Nancy Grace.  Please don't misinterpret this affection - I wholeheartedly agree she can be terrifying, but, if something ever happened to a child I love, she'd be the first person I'd call for help.

I love celebrity gossip.  In particular, I love the Real Housewives of New Jersey and Beverly Hills, and, I don't feel bad gossiping about them.  If they didn't want me to, they wouldn't allow their lives to be televised.  My only rule is that gossip be kept clean...as in curse words and other vile commentary is not permitted.  Icky language is not ladylike and will make your face look like you just sucked on a lemon.  Forever.

I'm a shopaholic.  As in, George puts me on an allowance, leading me to find fabulous deals on the hottest finds.  Get ready for product reviews, discount dish, and much more!

I welcome comment posting - in fact I love it!  But, due to those pesky spammers, I've been left with no other choice but to approve comments before they are posted.  I promise to do my best approving your thoughts quickly!

Welcome to my world ~ stop by often!
