| Introduction | Sewing and Crafts are not only my passion, they are my sanity!! I am medically retired and need something to keep me sane!! I have had 5 back surgeries, and so I cannot do anything that requires lifting or bending or sitting for long periods without breaks and sewing and crafts are perfect for this! I love to spend time with those that I love. I joined a Quilt Guild a few years ago and have made many good..no GREAT friends along with finding some ways to give back to the community. I have been very blessed in my life and believe that it is our duty to repay in kind or better. I believe that God provides the doors we just have to open them and walk through!! |
| Interests | CRAFTS, I love to learn new things, my passion is sewing and anything related to sewing, crocheting, reading, spending time with family and friends, spending time with grandchildren. I also love outdoor things, like hiking, camping, biking. Of course ever since I have had severe back problems, those things are pretty much a spectator sport for me now! My hope is that after the most recent of my two back surgeries heals all the way, I can at least ride my bike on flat surfaces! My dream of riding any more type of tours is pretty much gone and I have to deal with that, although I have been pretty bummed out about it! |
| Favorite Movies | I don't get to see movies very much as Ican't comfortably sit in the movie theater for very long. But my all time favorite movie ever is one of the classics: It's a Wonderful Life. That is the best movie ever!! |
| Favorite Music | Anything country (well as long as it is in good taste and doesn't have a bunch of swearing in it....I HATE that). I ABSOLUTELY LOVED k.d.lang singing Hallelujah at the opening of the Olympics! Rascal Flats is one of my favorite bands, along with Brooks and Dunn. |
| Favorite Books | I have read way too many books to really know what would be considered my favorite! My favorite authors are: Robin Cook, Anne Rule, Jonathon Kellerman, and some other true crime writers. |
Why is it that as we get older, we get wiser, but then our bodies start to give out and then all that stuff we learned about? Well, that stuff goes to the dumps also as we can't remember anything anymore! (more of a comment then a question!)
