An Introduction To...

Thanks for checking out this blog.  This is brand new to me and I expect to find some bumps along the road; however, comments are always welcome!


I've always been interested in writing and as a child I would write short stories in a notebook.  In high school I remember taking a creative writing class and really enjoying it.  Things changed and I only wrote for the sake of passing a college course or for sending correspondence to clients at work.  However, I think a lot can be learned about yourself by writing.  Sometimes things only make sense as you see them on a computer screen.  I'm willing to try this out and see how it goes. 


"Jemmer's Jawboning" - interesting name, eh?  My husband gave me the nickname of Jem several years ago.  When I was younger my favorite cartoon was Jem.  During the day Jem worked as a lawyer (or something professional) and at night she would rock it out with her band, Jem and the Holograms!  How cool would that be?  For the life of me, I have never found that cartoon on again, which is kind of a bummer.  Anyway, I have found my nickname to be anything from Jem, Jemmie and Jemmer.

I've been wondering what exactly I would write about.  I don't have children, which does not lend me to be an expert in child rearing.  I do have a dog; however, I wouldn't admit to be an expert on raising her either.  She has a submissive personality and my husband and I often come home to puddles of pee on our kitchen floor!  I've recently turned 30, in fact, will be turning 31 in a matter of a few short months.  Overall, I have a lot of random thoughts (I'm sure like many of you) and think this would be the perfect sounding board.  I look forward to sharing them with you over the next coming months or years (depending on how much I enjoy this).  Welcome!
