Introduction
Hello! I'm Lisa Marie. I'm twenty nine years old. I'm married to Juan who is all kinds of awesome (most of the time). We have the most cutest, coolest four year old ever. He goes by many names. Monkey, Boogie, E, Ethan Skywalker, Darth Ethan, the list goes on. His birth certificate reads Ethan Alexander so it's cool by me if you just call him Ethan. We recently moved to a nice small town somewhere in Illinois. It's very different from the commotion and whatnot we left behind in New Jersey. This is definitely the kind of place people come to settle down and raise a family. We couldn't ask for anything more.
I have many hobbies. I like to cook and clean. I'm not kidding. I actually like doing household chores. I especially like cooking because I can be as creative as I want to be. Two years ago I decided to go vegan and have learned to cook lots of new and exciting things. It was challenging at times, but the switch has been very rewarding. I also like going for walks. I feel great after a nice long walk outside or on my treadmill. I try to walk every day. I don't feel right if I miss a day. To unwind I like to lay in bed while watching my favorite TV shows on my laptop or reading a good book. But most of all I love working on my website. Despite the many breaks I have taken in the past, I do enjoy expressing myself through my website. It's the one thing I have all to myself.
When I'm not doing housework or running errands I'm usually hanging out with my two favorite guys. The three musketeers. That's us. We're always out and about and my wonderful camera (Jack; Canon EOS 400D Digital) is always by my side. Well, almost always.
So there you have it. Family, work and fun. That pretty much sums up how I spend my days. Of course some days aren't so fun, but I guess that's just life. You have to take the good with the bad. I'm just grateful that I have more good days than bad.

History
Here is a list of the domains I have owned in the past.
innocentlyluvin.com (early 2002) - This domain was a gift from my friend Tootee. She chose innocentlyluvin.com because at the time it was a screen name if mine. I had quite a few problems finding a host with a decent amount of up time. So after about a year I decided to move on.
gutter-flower.com (early 2003) - I thought the name was really cool. It was the album name of one of my favorite bands; The Goo Goo Dolls. I only kept it for a few months though. As cool as I thought it was, it just never felt like me.
mi-amor.net (May 2003) - I bought this domain with Juan in mind. He has always called me mi amor. I thought it was pretty and meaningful. This is the only one of my past domains that I currently still own. I'd probably still be blogging there today if it wasn't for Juan's family finding it. My words caused a lot of problems. Back in the day things weren't always as they are now. It was hell and I had no problem expressing that. They didn't understand that my blog was an outlet. A place for me to vent or talk about things that are on my mind, etc. I guess they thought I was just trying to be mean. I can understand how one might think that after reading some of those older entries. Truthfully, if things weren't so bad I wouldn't have had to talk about them the way that I did. But after all was said and done, I deleted all of my older entries and put mi-amor.net on hold. I returned after taking some time off, but felt I couldn't totally be myself. That bugged me. It really upset me that I had to abandon mi-amor.net. It will always hold a special place in my heart. Always.
autumnbliss.net (August 2006) - This one surprisingly lasted a little while. I neglected it a lot because of work, but managed to do a little blogging here and there. I never cared for it the way I did mi-amor.net. I always thought it was pretty, but it never really felt like me. In the end I just wanted something more me. Something more personal.
