About

Greetings.

This is the first blog I ever started. It dates back to 2005, which is when Blogger wasn't owned by Google! That's how old this blog is ^^

Mostly, this is my personal blog, so you can expect a mish-mash of topics and tones, depending on what I'm doing and how I'm feeling...and what I read/do.

This blog is the genesis for my other five blogs. I saw a pattern of particular themes in various posts on this blog, which I then spun off into themed blogs of their own!

I live in Aurora, Illinois with my husband of 9 years and favorite pooch, Benny (a very nervous adopted Beagle). I'm a trilingual professional with over 11 years experience as an editor, writer, publication project coordinator, and project manager by day, and also am a freelance writer and translator to help supplement my income.

I'm a voracious reader and somewhat of a social media fiend. If I'm not blogging, or online, you can find me learning about one of my latest hobbies or obsessions.

I'm very happy and proud to say that I completed my Masters in Written Communications from National-Louis University. I always wanted to have a higher degree, and after two years of very hard work while working full time and commuting, I was able to achieve one of my dreams.

I am also a budding apparel designer on Zazzle.com (Alternative Humor Apparel) and own a start-up communications company (Four Tongues Communications) that manages my freelancing opportunities specializing in writing, editing, and translation.

Wanna learn more about me? See my LinkedIn page or Blogger profile page. Feel free to contact me at jeda21 [ at ] gmail [ dot ] com with feedback, venting, or project opportunities. A list of my blogs is on the right-hand column and under the Links tab.

Thanks for visiting!
