Janet21 ~ Lensmaster, Giant Squid, Squid Angel, WAHM
We'll, I have heard that creating a lensography is the hip thing to do on Squidoo these days and that everyone is doing it. I know, I know, you shouldn't do something just because 'everyone else is doing it', (my mom taught me better) but in this case I think it should be okay. I am just creating a lensography afterall. What harm could that do? Plus, I certainly don't want to be considered "un-cool" by not having one. I want to be a part of the Squidoo in-crowd. I want to fit in. Geez, what am I back in highschool? Get a grip on yourself girl! :)

About Me~
I have lived my entire life in the great state of New York. I worked in the accounting field for 10 years before leaving my job when my first child was born. I have been a stay at home mom now for 11 years and truly love it! Of course there are some days when I want to pull my hair out, but I wouldn't change a thing. I have three children, 2 girls ages 11 & 8 and a son who is 4. This September my husband and I will celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary and we have been together for a total of 20 years!
I handle the accounting and office work for my husband's construction business as well as run my own image hosting site. I love keeping busy with grown up things. It has helped me to keep my mind sharp while being overwhelmed with diapers, bottles, play dates and soccer practice! :)
I came across Squidoo on a popular webmaster forum I frequently post in. I actually saw the site mentioned three times before I made the decision to join. I guess three times the charm!
