About Me

I’m a 30-something gal from the Midwest who likes to pretend that I’m a 20-something gal living the life of luxury in the Carribbean…… or maybe Hawaii …. heck I’d even settle for Florida.

10 Things about Me….
1. I wrote a novel in 2005.
2. I’m working on  taking a break from working on my MBA.
3. I have a Dyson vaccuum cleaner and I use it a lot.
4. I’m the only one in my house who puts dishes in the dishwasher. (This is because I’m the only one who is licensed to load it).
5. I could be Stephanie Plum if I tried.
6. I drive a hybrid car that is finally paid off!
7. I love going to the movies.
8. I have a love/hate relationship with my hair.
9. My all-time favorite question is the M&M one.
10. I ask a lot of questions.
10-1/2. I am a wine lush. There is no cure, just lots of fantastic wine!

The long version about me:

I’ve been married for 13 years, have an eight year old daughter, two dogs, three cats, and a big fat mortgage. I live in the suburbs, work in the family tool and die business, have my bachelors degree in criminal justice, and am this close to finishing master’s degree in business administration. Did I ever think I’d be a part owner in the family business? Nope.

I love going to the movies, reading a good book, taking long bike rides, running, practicing yoga, and going to the YMCA to work out (although I will admit that sometimes I like to just sit in the hot tub too). I enjoy Sunday mornings because I can read the newspaper in my pj’s and drink my coffee. I’m addicted to tennis and watch all the tennis matches, especially the four grand slams.

I could live on grilled cheese sandwiches, caesar salads (hold the caesar dressing please), cheese pizza with black olives, yogurt, chocolate chip ice cream, and red wine. Oh and water. I drink a lot of water.

I have the uncanny ability to break glasses and cups. I drank out of Mason jars (from Classico spaghetti sauce) for 10 years, and recently graduated to using Tupperware.

My real name is Kimberly, but I use Indigo as my online alias — because I started blogging in 2005 and back then you never ever revealed your true identity. You can email me at WINELUSH (AT) GMAIL (DOT) COM.

One last thing. I just turned 40.
