Confessional {Getting to Know You} Friday

It's Friday ya'll and this week, instead of dishing out our confessions, we're playing a little game of getting to know you. So, link up with the ever lovely Leslie from A Blonde Ambition and get to know your neighbors, err bloggers!
1. Your name

hmmm, I am somewhat anonymous on here,  but a lot of you now "know" me, so Hi, my name is Lynn.


2. Where you're from

I was born in The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in the small town of Clarion.


Or, if you are more familiar with PA



3. What do you do with your days?

I would love to say I am blogger, crafter, baker extraordinaire, however, I spend my days as a lawyer. I do civil defense work (mostly insurance defense, some construction and  lil smattering of landlord/tenant)

4. Tell us about your family.

I have one brother, who has a wonderful son (my nephew). Here we are!

I also have one of those maternal ladies, ya know a mom! She lives in a small town outside a well-known placed where a certain gaggle of Aggies can be found.

I also am blessed with a wonderful "adopted" family of sorts that includes V&D and my Aunt K. Not quite sure how I got so lucky to have these people in my life, but man I thank my stars everyday for them.

Oh, and I suppose if you want to know, I have a rather large consortium of aunts & uncles (my mom is the oldest of 7) and cousins, most of whom I cannot remember their names, opp sorry fam)

And.... I have these two ladies whom I refer to as my kids.

5. What are your dreams and goals?

Oh lordy, big question. This may seem silly, but I want to get married again and have kids. (yeah, if you're new around here, you can read about the Big D), I would like to make partner at my firm but secretly, I want to open a bakery/café that sells homemade food that is healthier for you. And I would like to win the lottery, pay off my house and buy a boat. No biggie.
6. Why did you start blogging?

I started blogging way back in August 2011 after I graduated from law school, got married, bought a house, took the bar exam and started as a law associated. But here we are January 2014 and I am still at it. Now, its been about the Big D, starting over, buying and maintaining my house and my faith journey.

 7. Maybe tell us some random facts!

* Hmm, I am a former titleholder with the Miss Texas Scholarship Program.



* I have never been skiing
*I have been more places overseas than in the US

2005 when I lived in London
*I own two LV purses and one pair of Christian Louboutin's that I bought with my first lawyer paycheck and I never wear them for fear of ruining them.
* I could live on the beach with a book in my hand and a tan on my skin!

Hope you all enjoyed this lil rendition of Confessional Friday! Ya'll come back now!

  1. Although I feel like I know you pretty well, it's always fun to read new things about bloggy friends! I don't think I've ever seen your nephew - he's adorable:) I would totally come out to TX to eat at a healthy bakery - sounds like heaven! And, although I don't own any Louboutins, if I did, I would totally be too scared to wear them too! Happy Friday, Lynn! :)

  8. Fellow has-been beauty-queen/divorcee/Pennsylvanian here.

    I actually know where Clarion is. Mainly because my grandparents dragged me to the Laurel Festival every summer of my life, and every winner was a student at Clarion University.

    Actually, that's how my pageant career got started. That damn Laurel Festival. Now, god knows how many dollars and rhinestones later, the only thing I have to show for it is a collection of tiaras I wear during Google Hangouts.

    How the mighty have fallen.
