Hi! My name is Sherri and I am 37 years old. I live in WV with my dh of 15 1/2 years and my two great kids. My dd Brooke is 14 and my ds Tyler is almost 11. I've been a SAHM/wife since dh and I got married. This year I am doing in home day care for a family friend.
I was born and raised in the country and I live surrounded by farms. I love to read, cook, watch Law and Order re-runs(all of them, Law and Order, Law and Order CI, Law and Order SVU) and more than anything I love to spend time with my family.
I've been a member of Ivillage since early 99 and was a CL of 9 boards at one time. I took a couple of years off from having the internet for a much needed break but we recently got it re-connected because dd needed it for homework!
I've been looking for a fun place to hang out and I think your board looks like a lot of fun!
Sherri

Welcome to the board! I watch the re-runs of Law & Order as well, every week night on USA! It's my bedtime routine to watch CI at ten and SVU at 11 and then go to sleep. I'm on the opposite end of the country in AK and I am SAHM to Noah, 15 months, with a baby girl due in April. At the moment I, too, am watching twin boys for a friend of mine. Temporarily though. They're the same age as my son so it's nice for him to have little buddies over to play. So nine boards at one time? I don't even think I frequent nine boards. That must have been a lot of work. Glad you reconnected to the 'net. See you around the board!
I usually hit the bed around 8pm and start watching on USA LOL. That's my "me" time. Between getting up at 6am to get my two off to school, having 2 or 3 day care kids 8 hours a day, then dinner, etc. in the evenings and a dh who works rotating 12 hour shifts and is gone 14 1/2 hours a day (he works in the next state) I am nuts by 8pm LOL.
Yeah, 9 boards was a mess. I had been the CL of Shoestring Budgeting for a while and when the magazines launched their boards they wanted experienced CL's so I took on a bunch more. I only did it until they got established then I turned them over to other people LOL. I finally gave up the Shoestring board too because I was just burnt out with the whole internet thing and needed a break!
I can NOT imagine 3 kids 15 months old at one time! You must have the patience of a saint! Some days(today for instance LOL) I don't have the patience for a 3 year old, a 5 year old and a 7 month old!

Welcome!!
Yes we are all Nascar fans although dd is the true "junkie"! She is obsessed with all things Nascar. She watches the truck, Busch series and the Cup series. She watches practice, qualifying and the races. She even stays up until 1am to watch the night races(as long as they aren't on school nights) Can't tell you how many times I've been jerked awake at 11pm to hear her yelling "NOOOOOOOOOOO Reed! You crashed AGAIN!"" (her favorite is Reed Sorenson) LOL She gets really upset when they don't interview Reed or if they don't show a replay of his crash as many times as they showed someone else's LOL. She's a NUT!

Kasey Kahne is my dh and ds's favorite, dd LOVES Reed Sorenson and I think Carl Edwards is just a hottie LOL! For years I was a HUGE Jeff Gordon fan but then Carl came along and I just like his personality and his flips so I switched! Here we root for anyone except JR (sorry!) and Tony Stewart!
Race day is quite interesting here with us all liking different people and when we go to races we all wear different driver stuff!
