I've been doing this whole Facebook 'thing' for more than 7 years (holy moly, how crazy is THAT?), and in all that time, y'all have come to know me, my family, and heck, even my pets!
Over the years, I've asked questions and you've given answers that give me a little insight into who YOU are.....
BUT, you've never introduced yourself officially!
I WANT to know you....This isn't all about me, this page is YOURS, too. It's here to build you up, motivate and inspire you, offer feel-good fun, and make sure you know you're not alone in this crazy journey called life.
So...I'll introduce myself below in a ridiculously long post that I've copied, pasted, added to, removed parts, and put together that hopefully makes sense.
Oh, and I'd love to SEE you, too.
The picture of me is a selfie I took in my bathroom, because that's where the selfie started so many years ago, amiright ??? #closethestalldoorgirl!
Let's meet and mingle, y'all....and I promise to read every single one, and reply. It might take me a week, but I'M ON IT!
Let's GO!

Hey y'all, I'm Sasha!
I'm multi generational care giver and tired about 137% of the time.
But I love anything shiny and sparkly, all the glitter, and I never met a brownie I didn’t like. I don't rest well, or 'do nothing' well, so I'm pretty much non stop and my brain never shuts off....which seriously messes with my sleep (See first sentence...).
I have a passion for building people up, and want to see everyone happy and confident as often as possible, and work hard to remove judgement from my life and those in my circle.
It's a hard road, but I insist on wearing my rose colored glasses...I like to laugh loudly and inappropriately, and love to tell a good story.
Road trips are balm to my soul and going somewhere new is always on the agenda...and it's best to be blasting old rock and roll on the radio while I sing badly and at the top of my lungs, making up words as I go along.
My heart hurts when I think of my son, who has been missing for more than 3 years, but I wrap my soul in good thoughts, and refuse to allow that sadness to dictate my daily life. I have too much left to do and too much life to live to continue looking back...I prefer to find the joy in the tiny things, the laughter in the ordinary, and the fun in the every day.
I'm ALWAYS up for a glass of wine, a cup of coffee, or a tumbler of whiskey, and adore meeting new people and asking way too many questions in rapid fire form because I want to know what makes you who you are....so if we meet, and I'm staring hard into your eyes while you're talking, know that I am soaking all you’re saying into my mind so I can remember your words and see how we can connect. I'm not really that weird
SHORT VERSION: You can usually find me with a Sweet tea in one hand and a fan in the other, juggling the care of an aging parent, an 12 year old granddaughter, a traveling salesman, and one crazy dog.
And you can find out much more (holy snap, there's MORE???) on my website: www.scatteredsasha.com.
So, who's up for being my friend? I also think we can never have too many friends, or too many gatherings of souls!
Glitter & Grace,
Sasha
