| Introduction | You can't put me in a box. I'm somewhat eclectic & quirky.I'm a Christian, 50 yo, wife, mom of 5 who homeschools my 3 youngest. Married for 25 years to an awesome husband. I'm uber conservative in some areas of life, in others not so much. People say I'm funny, and I do like to look at things from a humorous perspective. I like to have fun and not always take life too seriously most of the time. I'm fairly easy going and flexible. At the same time, I will stand up for what I believe in, still as much as possible trying to do so in a loving way that builds others up. I'm somewhat creative and have an artist's personality, but sadly no artistic talent. I have ADHD tendencies so I really struggle with organization, housecleaning, time management, and sometimes get lost in the details. I'm very curious about lots of different things. I'm passionate about God, my husband, my kids. Those are my top 3 priorities. I'm really in the middle of the introvert/extrovert scale I'm bubbly, fun, sometimes a tad feisty yet not mean spirited person, with an occasional dash of sarcasm |
