About Me

Informal Bio

Hi! I am a married, part-time working Mom. Out of necessity, I work part time in an office a few days a week. I started the June Cleaver project because I felt like my life just consisted of me running around from one thing to the next with no benefit to anyone—not to my family or to myself. I wanted to get off the crazy ride I felt like I was on and live a more simple and happy life. I thought about prior generations and what history tells us were “easier” and “simpler” times. I kept coming back to the 1950’s and envisioning June Cleaver from television’s Leave It To Beaver. So, here I am! I am on a mission to do the following: try and live a more value-driven life as a more “hands-on” mom; have more organization in my home and life; lead a more simple life; get back to basics in many ways; be a happy homemaker; and be a better mom, wife and person. (and all with a sense of humor, too!!!)
