I am a wife, a daughter, a sister, a best friend, and hopefully a soon-to-be Mom. I have been with my husband for 11 years (married for 4) and we live in a little apartment in Southern California with our cat “Willie”. I work as a Vice President at a recruiting firm and I love my day job. I am the oldest of 7 and keep very busy with both family and friends. I call myself a “Jane of all trades” my interests are vast and I love learning about new things. I am crafty and love to cook, my blog is a place where I showcase all the things I love.
Jon and I got married on 8.9.08 after relocating from Monterey (N.Cal) to Dana Point (S.Cal). It has been a wild ride since our engagement, Jon is currently working at Whole Foods in the wine department.
A lot of people ask me why this blog is called “igoYougo”, which understandably makes little sense out of context. Although, it could be argued that it stands for permission to go with me on my miscellaneous adventures but it is actually an excerpt from a poem Jon and I had read at our wedding by E.E. Cummings.
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
Love this Amanda!
