Terri is my mother. And since she’s still learning a lot about the blogging Technology, she managed to delete the first about page I wrote for her when we started this thing. So here I am again.
My mom and dad (Jerry) have been married – to each other – since before I was born. I’m proud of them for that. They have been and continue to be an amazing example of what we should all strive for in our relationships. They live in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
Previously, my mom was married to John, my brother’s dad. My brother is Kevin. He is married to Maggie and has been for somewhere between one decade and two. They have three children: Brittany (16), Zach (14) and Tony (10). They live in Oconomowoc. That’s in Wisconsin, too.
I am Sara. Seven years younger than Kevin. I’m married to James and have one baby, Michael, who was born in October of 2007. I also blog: A Little Nonsense. We live in Northern Virginia.
My sister, my parents’ youngest daughter, is Angela. She is engaged to Nick and planning their wedding for September, 2009. They live in one of the Twin Cities. In Minnesota.
Mom has her own business, Absolutely Art. She is a stripper and a painter. She strips wallpaper and paints walls.
She loves to dance, watch ABC programs and soap operas, play Spider Solitaire and text message. She hates Martha Stewart, confusing freeway names, eating outside, televised sports and when the president interrupts this broadcast. She works hard and deserves all the success that comes her way, she loves her family to the ends of the earth and beyond, and let me tell you, she sure knows how to party. She taught me everything I know, and some things that maybe I wish I didn’t. I love her, and I’m so not the only one. What else can I say?

Terri,
How weird about the fly in the olive oil! Yuk!
I know how you feel. When I was six months pregnant, (more than a few years ago!) and finally over morning sickness, I was hungry and went to the vending machine at work for a snack. There was a Mr. Peanut Bar in there that looked good to me. I got it and went back to my desk. After I opened it and took a bite, I felt something strange in my mouth. I spit out the bite and looked at what I didn’t eat in my hand. There was about half of some kind of insect. Well, I suddenly got morning sickness again. I did the same thing you did. I wrote a letter to the company, which at the time owned a large variety of food companies. They replied, very sorry of course, and if I would agree, they would send me a lot of coupons for their products. I don’t know if they still make the Mr. Peanut Bar, (it was almost like peanut brittle) but I never had one again! If something like that happened again, my brother, Mark, who is an attorney in Madison, could probably help me out. We also have an attorney in our BNI group whose office is on Grandview in Waukesha. I don’t know if he does product liability cases, but you could ask him. Let me know if you’d like his info.
Take care,
Di
