My First Post...Woot!

Hey there, everybody!  Welcome to my blog, The Pagan Mama Diaries.  I'm so excited to be starting this--it's been on my to-do list for quite some time.  I finally got my YouTube channel started at the beginning of this month, so I'm doin' work!  Next on my list is opening up an etsy shop, where I will be selling handmade incense blends, bath salts, tinctures, malas, and who-knows-what-else!  (That's most-likely going to be a summer project, though.)

Anyway, just to introduce myself, my name is Amanda and I am 25 years old.  My 3-year-old son and I live in a town of about 10,000 people in the Midwest.  I graduated two years ago with my Bachelor's in Music Education, and I really love my job.  I've been teaching in a parochial school for the last two years (we'll discuss that at a later date), but I didn't sign my contract for next year, as I will be going back to school to become an LPN.  (I was a CNA in college and LOVED it!)  Next step on the professional front will include getting my RN, but I'd really like to become a midwife (or at least a doula)...guess we'll see where I am and what I'm doing in another five years, huh?

I think that's about all you need to know about me at the moment.  Later this week I will post the history/story of my journey on the pagan path, including where I started and where I am now.

This page will include stories about every-day pagan life, every-day parenting, and probably the occasional political or humanitarian rant.   I hope that, as I grow this blog, I continue to grow in all aspects of my life, and that you will come along for the ride!

Thanks for reading!
Blessed Be )O(
