About Me

Do you remember Pretty In Pink?  Remember Andie, the girl with all that talent and ability to take the seemingly useless (and hideous) thing and turn it into a work of art?  Well, I never wanted to be her.  I always wanted to be Iona, the kooky record shop manager friend, whose look changed from day-to-day and who kept you guessing right up till the very end.

My name is Amanda.

I'm too young to be a MeMe. Too old to still play dress up. Supposedly. I'm probably a lot like you. Maybe a little less creative. Maybe a little more disorganized. Mostly, though, I'm grateful to God for all the ways He's blessed me. And hoping my efforts here will help to close the gap between my words and my reality.
