My name is Sandi Amorello

 

I’ve been a widow since 2002, the mother of three children since 1998 and a Girl Scout Dropout since 1971. I have been irreverent since birth. Along with those impressive credentials, I am also a writer and an artist. I am not the product of some marketing genius’s imagination. I am real. My stories are real. These words are from the heart…not the editor’s desk. That is why you may even find an occasional (GASP!) typo. Consider yourself forewarned.

THE IRREVERENT WIDOW PROJECT SANDI’S BLOG OPERATION GIRL SCOUT DROPOUT
*coming next!
A multimedia connection to one woman’s stories of love, death and dating…with children in tow. Sandi in her way cool go-go boots, circa 1967. How I earned my Enlightenment Badge.

“Losing my husband Drew to pancreatic cancer propelled me headfirst on a journey into grief, single parenting, and, perhaps most tragic of all… midlife courtship. I have become a reluctant expert on love, death and dating. The Irreverent Widow Project is my way of sharing my story. I want to help you to laugh when you don’t think there is anything left to laugh about. I want to inspire you to follow your heart and your passions. Or maybe just to make it through another day.”

“In addition to being an irreverent widow, I am also a Girl Scout dropout. These two things may be somehow connected…but I don’t feel the need to pay a psychologist to figure it out for me at the moment. I was not always the perfect girl. Or the perfect scout. But, if the Girl Scouts had a badge for the successful navigation of life altering experiences that might otherwise kill a lesser woman…my mother would be sewing it on my sash for me, as we speak.”
