Yours truly
38 years old (ACK! Really?) … aka cowgrrrl, recently divorced, proud and loving to mom to two teenage boys plus 4 dogs and 2 beautiful kitties, web business owner, domestic un-goddess, music lover, LOST fan, independent and stubborn, knitting and reading enthusiast, Liverpool supporter, hates being cold, self-proclaimed Queen of Procrastination, noobie blogger, carrying a truck-load of not so much emotional baggage right now, never too sure of how much of myself to reveal.

Son #1
18 years old (mother of all things holy … ALREADY!?), currently on a GAP year, ridiculously talented sportsman, gorgeous and charming, a real lady killer, just as independent and stubborn as yours truly, loves hugs and having his back stroked, Facebook addict, guitar enthusiast, social beast and party animal, mixes his own vibes, artistic, fellow Liverpool supporter, beginning to rival yours truly for the procrastination title, temperamental, gives me major grief but I love him to death.

Son#2
16 years old (where did my baby go?!), grade 9, loves all things gaming, permanently attached to Xbox or Wii when he’s not deep inside WOW, loves YouTube, loves his  skateboarding, face of an angel, infectious laugh, wicked sense of humour, wise beyond his years, couldn’t give a toss about Liverpool or any sport for that matter, loves animals and WWF, can’t see the point of homework, dreams of owning an old split window VW Combi that he wants to refurbish, wears his heart on his sleeve.

Sir G
Aka BiggestMullet, 30 years old, gorgeous body, beautiful face, equally beautiful spirit, kind and gentle, forgiving and accepting, makes me laugh, one of four kids, photography and gym enthusiast, loves the outdoors, huge movie buff and gaming fanatic, Chelsea devotee, dad to a big and tough Burmese boy, crazy clever, works for me, wired to conquer any challenge, loves people, tries to always enrich lives and bring out the best in everyone, loyal friend. Catch him at Mulletized.

Mom
Made her living in the circus, came back to live in South Africa about 12 years ago, I met her for the first time when I was 16, has 2 other daughters living in the States and Italy, looks fantastic for a “gran”, loves her grandchildren to pieces, works for me, incredible work ethic, dependable, always generous and helpful, sensitive but tough, doesn’t take shit from anyone, doesn’t eat enough, loves the sun, animals and candles and incense.

Dad
My rock, the yin to my yang, fantastic athlete back in the day, ex-circus performer, now a semi-retired professional photographer, lives too far away from me now, knows me better than anyone, pulls me back to reality when I need it, enjoys the quiet, simple life but also loves gadgets and all things tech, also doesn’t take shit from anyone, the wisest person I know, the most amazing father I could ever have hoped for. And he now has his OWN blog – Gone Fishing.

The X
We were together for 15 years, it took me 2 years after we split to see him in person but I think the less said about him, the better. Only this: he doesn’t scare me anymore. And … as of now, I think I’ve let a lot of crap about him go. YAY!

Miss Boats
Step sister to my X, works for me, loves a wild party, can never get close enough to a doof-doof speaker at a club, devoted mother to gorgeous little 4-year girl.

Cosmo Tit
Ex-employee now living in London, all round mad chic, an endless source of positive energy and upbeat enthusiasm, loves stripes and crazy hats, sorely missed.

JOC
My new PA, truly a god-send, used to work for us helping with the kids before she left for London and decided she wasn’t happy there, kept up with me on Facebook and via this blog while she was away, now helps me organise my crazy life.

Nats
One of my half sisters, 12 years younger than me, lives in the States now, been through some rough shit and came out an absolute winner, her wisdom blows me away, she inspires me and I am crazy proud of her. And she’s going to have a baby soon. Yeek!
