Hello world!

So what kind of gal starts her very first blog at 11:34pm on a Monday night?

Well, for starters, an unemployed gal ... who, by the way, happens to be quite inspired by her good friend's #100 post at http://www.lettucebeglad.blogspot.com/. OK, so maybe my competitive nature has a bit to do with it too - after all, woman can't live by LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter alone.

I'll have lots to say - much of it funny (hopefully) - but all of it told with love.

My name is Sallie, and I'm happily married to my husband Ricky (12 years) and we have a terrific daughter, Sarah Clay, who's 8 years old and loves her pets: Happy (a fish), Skittle (a cat), Dixie (a Springer Spaniel), and Molly (a Yorkie-Poo). Oh yeah, and did I mention we live on a 9 acre pond? That's right .... right next door to my parents-in-law, a brother/sister-in-law, another brother/sister-in-law, and another brother/sister-in-law.

For the purpose of my blog, I shall call it Pegasus Pond. For it, is my muse.
