About me


  • I am thirty two years old, I live in Northeastern, Pa and I am married and have one soon to be five year old daughter. I love birthdays. Some people don't. But I think of birthdays as a celebration of you. I'm getting better. Not older. I am a very outgoing person. I like to make people laugh. I take things in stride, for the most part. I'm easy going. It takes a lot to push my buttons. I like to run (not fast), read, make things (I made my own wedding shower invitations using embossing powder), knit, give foot baths, put on mascara, use facial masks, clean my house, make drinks, research anything I will be purchasing and gardening. I would like to learn how to sew, can tomatos, sky dive, and anything else that catches my fancy. I'm OCD to a point. Either my house is completely spotless or I let it go for a little bit and there is dog hair on the floor and laundry is piled up. It's either all or nothing. I am a very loving and giving person. I treat my family and friends very well. I wear my heart on my sleave. I will trust someone until they give my a reason not to. I would like to have one more baby. I would like a boy. I would be happy to have a girl too. We have some factors involved and are going to be doing another IUI. This time with Clomid. I love music. Depeche Mode, U2, Madonna, Fleetwood Mac, Jimmy Buffet, Neil Diamond, The Rolling Stones, Dirty Vegas, Boston Pops, and The Cure. I would live in Boston. It's my favorite city. I did live there for a short time. It's clean, the people are great and there are tons of things to do. It is very easy to navigate, especially taking the T. I get Boston Magazine every month. It keeps me updated on Beantown. I can teach myself new things pretty easily. I can put together items (baby gadgets, kids toys, shoe racks, etc.) no problem. I get that from my Dad. I like sunny, warm days. No humidity though. I have natural curly hair. I knew I had a wave to my hair (which is funny. because growing up my hair was poker straight) but I never experimented with it. I went to Key West last year and a friend did my hair for me and I had spiral curls. I like my hair both curly and straight. I am a professional student. I've been in college since 1993. I have an Associate's Degree in Criminal Justice and a Bachelor of Art's in Humanities with a Minor in English. I am now going for my elementary education degree. If I could be anything in the world it would be a dog groomer first and a deaf education teacher second. I love animals. I have a cat Marnie (tiger cat, 18 yrs old), Magnus (English Springer Spaniel, 10 years old), Kona (German Shephard, 3 years old) and Logan (Golden Retreiver/Lab, 3 years old) If I won the lottery I would pay off my families bills and donate money to the Hillside SPCA. (All my pets came from the SPCA except Magnus. He came from Montreal Canada) I love monogramming. I have polo shirts, Vera Bradley bags and jewelry with my initials (SJL). I think it adds a personal touch and it makes me feel special. I used to see people with their initials on their clothes or whatnot and I would think one day I, too, will have my initials on my things. That's a short clip about me. I'll be sure to add more things and keep it updated. Thank you for visiting me! Susan

Happy Hearts Day

Happy Valentine's Day!!!  I know this has turned into a very commercial holiday but I still like it.  I like the red hearts, Cupid and chocolate (Lindt of course).  Me and my lobster are going out for a lovely dinner.  Elisabeth is with her Pop and they are making yummy Valentine's Day cookies - ladybugs.  The puppies are getting groomed right now (I don't think that it's their idea of a great Valentine's Day.  But they will look and smell great!)

Happy Valentine's Day to my Lobster!!  I'm so lucky to spend this and all my days with you.  I love you!!

Little ladybugs!! Their spots are mini M & M's.

Hello there!!

I'm still here.  I've been very tired this week. I've turned in at 9pm on several evenings.  I had a big test complete with a big extra credit opportunity. I think the stress wore me out. I took a quiz in this class I had the test in and I got five wrong.  I studied so hard. I asked other people in my class how they did and they did worse than me.  I just get really upset when I put so much time and effort into something and then I do poorly.  Dammit--I want nothing less than an A.  I should tell you that the quiz I had was on a book that we read by ourselves and was not taught in class at all.  But I feel pretty good about the test.  I know I got two wrong but other than that I think I did okay.
Michael's mom is in the hospital.  She is having kidney surgery to get rid of a blockage and abscess.  Please keep her in your prayers.  She's been so sick and she's such a good person.  We want her to feel better and get back to her old self.
I start C.lomid again.  I believe around the 13th or so.  We are going to do another IUI somewhere around the 20-22.  This IUI will be different from the last one in that I will be on C.lomid.  I still have hope.  Even though it will be hard to have a baby and be in school I'm more than willing to make it work.
On a happier note it's someone's birthday today.  He's the most wonderful person in the whole wide world. He is my world, my everything, my Lobster!!!  Happy Birthday!!!!
