About Me: I am a wana-be stay-at-home-mom of a beautiful little girl (born Jan '08). I am having a hard time adjusting to going back to work and the stress of being a new mom. In an effort to stay home with my little peanut, I have started selling AVON with the hopes of making up the income that we need for me to be able to stay home.
My interests: Crafting - crocheting, cross stitch, painting, coloring. I read, walk, spend time with family, horses, and others.
My website/blog: http://www.yourAVON.com/kgjerde www.momsbuzz.com/blogs/profiles/kgjerde/
How I de-stress: Crafting
Best advice I've gotten: Keep work at work.
An adjective to describe me: Frazzled
My favorite book: Jane Eyre by Charolette Bronte
My favorite movie: Gone With The Wind
