How a Book Named Twilight Changed My Life

 It was late spring 2009 (a part of me wants to write... Picture it.. Buffalo...2009)! <- see I promised humor! Okay; I digress.

 I was a stay-at-home mom of a new baby, a 4 year old, and an amazing dog named Mandy! I was involved in a group called MoPs (Mother's of Preschoolers). The group was a way for us moms to socialize. One of those wonderful moms gave me the Twilight series to read.

 

 To say that I was entranced would be an understatement. I read all  four books in 10 days! I couldn't wait to rent the movie Twilight as New Moon was coming to theaters in the fall! I was not impressed with the first movie at all, but I still watched it a few times before returning it to Blockbuster (remember Blockbuster?)

My issues with the first movie... (spoilers ahead)

You leave blood typing out but put a stupid field trip in? Really?!?

The last scene with Victoria at the prom... come on really, like Edward wouldn't of smelled her and heard her thoughts (be somewhat realistic) 

The worst part of the movie was the green screen. I was looking forward to New Moon as they had a bigger budget and different director and of course ... wolves! They do bring drama and entertainment to the series after all!

See you Monday! 

Welcome to My Life with a Splash of Vodka.

I'm Tammy Sheldon, a 52 year old recently divorced mother of two amazing kids 20 and 16 and 4 very spoiled cats! (you'll get to know my cat very well) Yes, I am the crazy cat lady!

Finding myself 50 years old, going through a divorce and menopause at the same time has made the last few years to say the least, a bit crazy would be an understatement. I'm not even going to start on the dates I've been on since, but I'll sum it up with this quote I've heard somewhere "Dating after 50 is like going to the thrift store and finding the least broken and smelly thing and bringing it home." This is why I'm truly just happy being home with my kids and cats! That's what brings me joy!

I've wanted to start blogging again for awhile but I couldn't figure out what to talk about besides my cats of course. Then one day it hit me, I needed to tell the story of the craziest and best ten years of my life. So, buckle up and join me as I take you through how a simple book named Twilight changed my life!

Over the next few months you'll come to know as Lady Tazz and Tamaria Soana, I promise to write each post with humor, with a little sprinkle of my life here and there, and of course while drinking a vodka and tonic!

See you Thursday!

 I'll be posting every Monday and Thursday!
