About

LessaElizabeth ‘Lessa’ McDonald, is a SAHM of three (A boy and two girls, ages 15,12, and 7). She lives in a small town in Alaska, where she amuses herself during the dark, cold, winters by snarking on anything, everything, and watching too much bad reality TV.

She’s always written during the commercials of her favorite shows, and now is no different, except that you all get to read her snarky comments more often the ever before. God Bless the Internets!

With a Bachelor of Science degree in Graphic Arts, one of Lessa’s other jobs is website and graphic design. Her clients currently consist of mainly belly dancers. Her son is forever grateful.

Her other other job involves financial planning and helping other families. She also writes at least once a week for the Living North of Sixty column of the online paper The Sourdough. And of course, there’s her prattling on and on about her family life, kids, cats and dog at Kaleidoscopic Eclat.

To say that Lessa spends an obscene amount of time attached to her computer by her fingertips would not be an exaggeration. Girl needs a laptop - maybe THEN she’ll get some sun!

But enough about Lessa - Let’s talk about Watching Survivor!
