Meet Jen

For a good time, call read…

867‑5309 is not my phone num­ber.  If you were born in the 80’s or later, here is where you can find out why I’m Jenny 867‑5309. I grew up half the time in Okla­homa and the other half in India.  I love all things web-based and have been dab­bling in social media since Netscape. When your fam­ily lives all over the world you tend to get cre­ative on ways to keep in touch. I adore writing…it’s a soul releaser.

I am enter­tained daily by a hilar­i­ous man that some­how hornswog­gled me into mar­ry­ing him before I knew what was going on. But I’ve stayed with him for 14 years because he always keeps me laugh­ing (and guess­ing). Due to the mix­ing of antibi­otics and birth con­trol pills, I was preg­nant by our 1st anniver­sary.  What a shocker for the woman who didn’t want chil­dren! How­ever, my first born was the per­fect anti­dote. I don’t use my children’s real names on this blog so I call them by the name that makes me think of them fondly. Old­man (he’s quite mature for his age) is now 12 and is a joy to talk with.  I enjoyed Old­man so much that I worked very hard to have another child. God so mer­ci­fully gave us another son, Grem­lin (he’s an ornery cuss). He’s 9 years old and his heart is as ten­der as his smile is mischievous.

‘For a Good Time…’ is how I want to live through this blog. What I con­sider a good time has changed over the years. Now days, if I’m up late at night it’s because I’m tak­ing care of a sick kid. My crazy, fast-paced days are because I’m jug­gling kids, pets, a hus­band and a career. I wouldn’t change my good life for any other offered. I’m hav­ing a great time!
