Will the real Holly please stand up?
I have a great life. My husband adores me, my children are brilliant, polite and Eagle Scouts. I make a boatload of money working part time and I’m named after Queen Elizabeth. My body looks better now than at 20 which I credit to my exercise routine and healthy eating habits.
Who am I kidding here!
None of my kids know what a Dean’s list is, although they have been recorded on the school suspension roster. Exercise consists of pressing chocolate to my lips and inhaling. I'm employed full time and pay childcare, so I work for free. Oh, and I am not named after Queen Elizabeth. I was named after Lizzy Borden who, of course, was no queen. But my ex-husband is. He left me two years ago for his best friend. Now occasionally he's a “she” and we have an improved relationship for it, however his legs look better than mine which makes me feel somewhat inadequate, so we don’t hang out very often.
Not buying it eh? Okay, okay. The real deal! My name is Holly- my parents thought it would be nice to name their firstborn after a bush - let's not go there! I am the mother of five children ranging in age from 9 to (gulp) 30. I have a husband, a house, three Boston terriers and a bird. My Mini Cooper S is my midlife crisis. I have two kilns and make porcelain dolls. I paint murals. I play a smattering of classical guitar. I eat dark chocolate and shrimp though not usually at the same time. I was born and raised on Long Island. I come from a loud but happy family whose skill set includes (but is not limited to) simultaneously arm waving for emphasis with one hand while not losing antipasto off a piece of Italian bread in the other. But mostly I write. I love to write even more than I love pistachio walnut sugar cones with chocolate sprinkles and that's going a ways...Holly
