Last week I was on the radio, I didn’t tell anyone because honestly I felt uncomfortable tooting my own horn. I haven’t even listened to the interview myself, nor do I know if it is online - I haven’t even looked. But since I know a few of you would looove to know the real me, I thought I’d let you see a clip from You Tube…
Do you see my pet sheep in the video?? However, my kids will brush their teeth three to four times a day, not two
Also I may budget, but I don’t wear dresses that look quite like that, in fact this week I saw photos of Kate Middleton wearing a dress I own, purchased on sale for about $60/£40. Yes on a budget you can dress like the future Queen! lol Now if only I could buy my shoe house with two acres at the same cost
Would you like to introduce yourself?


So glad to meet you. I enjoy checking out your blog when I can. I have no kids, but my life is so busy and full, doing so many things that I love to do. I am retired now and can play to my heart’s content(for the most part).
OH FT that is so funny! Well done on the dress!!

Hi FT. My name is Leigh and I work in public relations and live in Wellington, New Zealand. I love your blog, read it every day, and second Kay’s request to you to post a link to your radio interview as I too would love to hear it.
Hi FT!
I’m a SAHM in a southern state of the USA. I have two kids, the oldest of whom i adopted when she was a teen in foster care and I was still single and a bit too young to be her bio mama.
Now she’s almost done with college and I have a husband (who is a saint!) and little one at home. I garden, homeschool, write poems, cook from scratch, pray, and read a lot. I’ve just decided to start gleaning fruits and vegetables for the poor/food insecure, and I love your blog!
Laura your life is AWESOME
Hi FT,
I saw the title of this post and thought we were going to see the real you – thank you for the laugh!
My name is Glenda, I live in Sydney Australia. I am an Occupational Therapist and work in Aged Care which I absolutely love. I have three living children and one angel. I tell everyone I know about your blog because I find I find you inspirational.
You are too kind Glenda! What a lovely life you need. I always think very special people have angel children! Blessings to you!
I’d love to hear your interview as well!
That’s exciting!
Ooh, I’d love to see the dress too!
I keep thinking about this and laughing! I just love your blogging style!
I have been following your blog religiously for years. Even at the beginning when I found your blog I back read everything to catch up. So def feel like I know you personally and so many of your views are ones I (and probably we) all relate to. Would LOVE to listen to your radio interview. Please post!!! Or at least email those of us who would love to hear it. Pretty please
