| Introduction | There is no place I would rather be than at home, sewing, cooking, painting, crafting, gardening, decorating, writing, and even cleaning. My background is in art, which seems to tie into everything I do. I've moved 16 times, so far, since college. I'm an optimist and look at each chapter in life as an adventure with things to learn from each one. Faith, family, and home - in that order. |
| Interests | I’m a little bit country. I’m a little bit rock and roll I’m also a little bit pop and symphony and opera and gospel A child of the 50’s – late baby boomer I’m a wife, lover, mother, daughter, sister, friend, niece, cousin, yada yada yada I’m a Christian I’m a cook, housekeeper, driver, accountant, and general problem solver I’m an artist, painter, crafter, knitter, crochet-er, photographer, blogger, and you name it. If it’s creative, I want to do it. I’m a decorator I’m a reader, writer, thinker, and question asker I’m a record keeper, art journalist, and story-teller I’m a girly girl, and I’m old fashioned. I’m modern and I’m down-home I’m a home body I love to be lazy, but don’t often get the chance I am REAL. As far as credentials, I've always drawn, painted, sewn, and decorated. I took a decorating course through Sheffield School of Interior Design, but we moved away just before I got the certificate. I still got all the information, though I believe you either have it or not when it comes to putting together a room and the certificate was just a formality. The past few years I've been writing. I've taken some writing classes, done a lot or reading and study on my own and published an e-book through Kindle Direct Publishing. It has been an learning experience in itself. I'm naturally curious and won't ever stop learning. |
| Favorite Movies | I recently saw Midnight in Paris and The Help, both of which I really liked. Older ones I like are: Miss Potter, The Holiday, Rebecca, Moonstruck, P.S.I Love You, to name a few.... |
| Favorite Music | It's all over the place - simpler to tell you what I don't like: Rap and heavy metal. |
| Favorite Books | I have my fair share of books. Hmmmm.... too many to list here. |
