Why Tough Girl Times??

You may be wondering why I named my blog Tough Girl Times!?!

I have been though many things in my life.  Like others, I have some very good experiences and some not so happy memories.  Through it all I have managed to stay sane and I have taken what I have gone through and in most cases, I have learned from them.  Others have made the comment to me that they cannot believe all that I have accomplished and continue to accomplish in my life.  I take this as a compliment most of the time and am proud at who I have turned out to be.  I am a Tough Girl and this is about my times!!

I started this blog to have a place for me to vent, share, and be silly.  I need an outlet and this is it!  

I will be honest, funny, pathetic (at times), genuine, and true to me here.  And you know what?!?!  It is okay!  After all, this is MY blog and I can cry, complain, and be pathetic if I want to!   ;-)

TTFN!
