February Made Me Shiver...Bad News On The Doorstep, I Couldn't Take One More Step

by mommywantsvodka, Tuesday, February 9, 2010, 7 comments

I got fired today. I've never been fired before, so really I don't know how one is supposed to act in this sort of situation. I mean, the money I made could best have been summed up in "so...

When Opinions Diverge Into Cruelty

by mommywantsvodka, Monday, January 18, 2010, 10 comments

I'm a big proponent of people having opinions other than mine because most of the time, I'm pretty sure that I'm not right. I don't care to argue the point and really I can almost always see...

It Takes A Village, You Know.

by mommywantsvodka, Thursday, January 14, 2010, 10 comments

I remember nodding my head furiously when someone told me that "it takes a village to raise a child," not because I really understood what it meant, but because I liked the mental picture...

Finding Myself Among The Dirty Diapers

by mommywantsvodka, Saturday, January 2, 2010, 10 comments

I stay at home now with my kids, retired from my chosen profession at 26, and I write while my husband goes out and earns the bucks for us. It's like a 50's throwback here, without the pearl...

Nothing Compares 2 U

by mommywantsvodka, Tuesday, December 29, 2009, 4 comments

I read somewhere or maybe I heard it on an episode of 7th Heaven (because it SO sounds like something you'd see on an episode of 7th Heaven, doesn't it?) that a sign of aging was the inability to...

Fear And Loathing At The Post Office

by mommywantsvodka, Thursday, December 17, 2009, 13 comments

When I die and I'm flung down to hell, my own personal hell will play the theme song to Sanford and Son on a loop, spliced with the smoothest of the smooth jazz--Sax on the Beach, perhaps? 24...

About Me

More about Me: I'm a nurse who lives in the suburbs of Chicago who now stays home to be raised by my three children, Benjamin (8), Alexander (2) and Amelia (almost 1). I stay sane by polluting the Internet on my blog Mommy Wants Vodka and am in the process of getting my freelance writing career established. While it's certainly not the swinging life I'd imagined that I'd have and I have a husband rather than a monkey butler, I'm happy. Sometimes I wonder what I was thinking. Doesn't everyone?

Words I live by: Not everyone can be a ballerina.

I am most proud of: Somehow managing to be born and reborn over and over again without becoming bitter and mean.

I am most guilty of: Saying yes when I should say no.

The world would be a better place, if only: Diet Coke flowed from the taps.

Kids: Have young kid(s)

Relationship Status: Married

Name: Becky Sherrick Harks

Occupation: Freelance Writer and Blogger

Education: Too much!

Interests: I rock the suburbs of Chicago where I'm raised by my three children and menagerie of animals and orchids. By my own design life is never, ever dull or quiet, and I couldn't be happier. Well, I could, but it would involve a pool and a cabana boy.
