SusieName:
My name is Susanne, but almost everyone calls me Susie.

Age:
I’m 45 years old and proud of it. I never really understood why people are afraid of getting older. Life is so much easier now than it was 20 years ago. I don’t mind the wrinkles or the gray hair. I can easily change the color of my hair and the wrinkles shows I’ve had a couple of good laughs in my life.

Family:
I’m a single mother of 4 daughters, 3 of them being adults already. I used to be married a long time ago, I used to be engaged to married quite a while ago too. My 3 older daughters are from my marriage and the youngest one with my fiancé. I’m not married, nor engaged anymore, I’m single and free and even though my blog has a lot of writings about love and relationships, I’m not really looking right now. I guess one tend to talk about what one lacks.

Work:
I work as a teacher at a college of applied sciences. I don’t have a college degree myself, I’m a high school dropout. I teach basic computing skills and image manipulation. I’m lucky enough to live in a small town where everyone knows each other and I got my job because of what I know, not because of the schools I have attended. I am a full time student too, working on finally getting a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration.

Hobbies:
I paint in oil and I photograph, and I intend one day to make my hobbies my main income. This year I started out selling my photos as microstock and I had intended to use my blog to write about my photography. It have gotten a little bit out of track, but I will get back to it and post about different thing, not only relationships and love.

About me:
 I’m a geeky artist and well, you can’t win a debate with a geeky artist with kids. When you are using logic, I’m going to talk about what I feel. When you’re trying to reason with me, I’m going to tell you a story about the time when my kids were little. I’m using my life as an example to prove I’m right and you’re using the words by great men you read in books. Since I’m a single mother and used to doing all the chores in my home, I do understand how the dishwasher, computer and the vacuum cleaner work, I also know how to use the hammer and a nail. So when you say I’m irrational and don’t know what I’m talking about, I’m going to explain the floating point algorithm and install a hard drive. When you get frustrated about not getting anywhere with me, I’m saying: “Whatever, honey… who’s going to clean the table?” When you’ve had enough and decide to go home to your place, I’m saying: “If you love something, set it free… If it comes back, it’s yours, if it doesn’t, it never was yours….”
