My name is Stacey & I am the mom of four wonderful children--ages 20, 18, 16 & 13.

I was a stay-at-home-mom for 15 years. It was the most difficult job I’ve ever had–& I wouldn’t have traded it for the world!

Currently, I'm going through a divorce which is taking WAY too long for me, but at least I'm outta there!

My 'other half' & soulmate came into my life in 2006, & we've been 'shacking up' ever since. Tim is truly the one I was meant to be with, & I am a very lucky woman!

I started Real World Mom to share the motherhood experience with other real world moms: The ups & downs, the ins & outs, the disasters & triumphs–you get the idea!

The Salty Mooch is my blog for animal-related information, stories and news. You'll see more of our dog, Madison (aka: "The Salty Mooch:) there!
