Introduction I am mom to 2 boys (17 and 20), 2 dogs, 3 birds, a gecko, etc. I work full-time and on top of that, I knit like crazy. I have done felting and colorwork but have more recently gotten into stitchwork. Cables, lace, beading, whatever makes it interesting. For my regular projects, lately it's been socks. They are small and portable and offer an endless variety of options. Also, I have large feet so it's hard to find nice socks that fit well. I have also been known to weave baskets, make jewelry, quilt, etc. My favorite color is apparently blue though I like many of the cool colors (bright, bold, as well as pastel). Favorite food (if you can consider it such, would have to be chocolate!
Interests kids, knitting, reading, animals, church
Favorite Movies Primarily romantic comedies, an occassional action movie, and, of course, Harry Potter! And, I must be able to knit during the movie...
Favorite Music These days I've been pretty much stuck on contemporary Christian. My back-up would have to be country.
Favorite Books The Yarn Harlot, Harry Potter, craft/cooking based mysteries such as Mary Kruger and Monica Ferris, the Monk and Diagnosis Murder series, Maddie hunter's Passport to Peril mysteries, Joanna Carl's Chocolate mysteries, and the like...

Your pajamas have duckies on them. Why did you switch from choo-choos?

I love birds! And I can't wait to see 'duck butts' this year. (you know, when they stretch to eat off the bottom of the lake and their butts stick up in the air?!?!?) Gotta have my duckies...
