Hey! I’m Amy. Mom of two wonderful blessings from above and married to my best friend. We live in (and love!) upstate South Carolina. Like you, I wear many hats. None of them professional by any means. Some I’ve stumbled upon over the years, while others are part of a woman’s attire.
We all wear many hats. Whether you’re a mom, sister, grandmother, wife or single gal finding her way, you’re gonna be changing the hats up often. “She Wears Many Hats” was born out of the need to define myself with a blog name. Nothing worked. Nothing fit. And “Chauffeurella,” although what I spend a great deal of my time doing right now, didn’t speak to the whole of me. So, after checking a gazillion domain names for that perfect one, “She Wears Many Hats” popped out. And now I’m Embracing the Hat Head!™
A former graphic designer, my days are now filled with the joys of motherhood, wifedom and the struggle with domesticity that haunts me in laundered form daily. I don’t live up to some standard set by some standard making person or consider myself “politically correct” most of the time. I eat meat – and I like it, thank you very much. And there’s hardly a day that goes by that I don’t stick my foot in my mouth (and I’ve got some butt ugly feet, so you can just imagine…), but I’m working on all of that.
The point is, I’m far from perfect or some ideal that we’ve built up in our minds of what a modern woman should be. I offer no professional advice here just what I’ve learned (and am learning) from trial and error or have gleaned from others over the years. “She Wears Many Hats” is intended to be a place for fun and hopefully some handy tidbits here and there. Plus, I think you’ll meet some pretty cool chicks along the way. There will be other women contributing with experience from underneath other hats from time to time, so watch for them.
I hope you enjoy “She Wears Many Hats” and find something that sparks you to try on a new hat for size or maybe even dig out an old one, dust it off and wear it with those new fancy shoes!
By the way, I’m brand new to the world of blogging (July 2009), plus I’m not a writer, but I hate typos. Hate ‘em, I tell ya. And the comma rules? Forget about it. I do own a well worn dunce hat, so if you find a blatant typo, please be gentle and let me know. Hopefully, after the weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth, I’ll get around to fixin’ it.
