Who I Am

Nice to meet y'all. I'm Andrea, a native New Yorker who relocated to North Carolina back in April of 2006. Hence, the name of my blog. I'm a Good Girl Gone Redneck. You get it? 

I sure hope so ... 

So, hi, and a huge welcome to my 'hood! No need to worry that you'll find too much New York attitude here - I'm full of southern hospitality these days. But I will admit that you can take the girl out of Brooklyn, but never Brooklyn out of the girl.

My husband and I got married in April 2002. We met in NYC at the meet market that was my office and set up a brand new life for ourselves here in NC. It's quite different, maybe more for a Jewish girl in the South than for the man from Maine, but we're definitely doing okay.

There is so much that I miss from back home and a bit that I can easily survive without. There is so much here in the South I couldn't imagine foregoing, ever. (Have you tried sweet tea, yet?) Did I say EVER? Yes, I did. And one or two things I could totally, absolutely, live WITHOUT. Bat musk say wha?

I've been blogging for a while now, and I'm still always interested in learning other blogger's thoughts, secrets and the whys and hows of blogging. 

I've forever been dealing with my weight, issues with what food means to me, why my skinny pants don't fit, and accepting myself for who I am. I have recently found a love of running and working out. I am not quite sure how that happened, but I'll take it. 

I've even started sharing pictures of myself as I'm prepping to get moving!



I've also got loads of incredible images on my Pinterest motivation board that keep me going. 

I'm an avid reader and a lover of all things book-related.  

I'm slightly addicted to TV. 

And I love to write.  

I have been sharing many aspects of motherhood with my readers throughout the years, with stories of Things I Never Thought I'd Have to Say, or do (you know you're a mom when...), or what being a mom truly means. 

I've offered my *words of wisdom* in tips for new moms or moms-to-be with hopes that my experiences and words will help anyone know what the future has in store for them as they move into parenting a newborn.

I've found loads of friends via blogging, met many IRL - which I've loved, AND I've found new addictions like Twitter - find me at Twitter/goodgirlgonered ... and last April I got sucked into the vortex that is Facebook, so you can find me at facebook/goodgirlgonered now, too!
