About me

Gender Female
Occupation Mommy & Pet Groomer & Barista
Location Iowa, United States
Introduction A little about me. My favorite job is mommy. Most days anyway :) I also enjoy (most days) being a wife to my husband. I work with animals and coffee and gourds. I have learned over the years that I am a "hands on" kind of gal. I loathe working on spreadsheets in a sterile environment (I did that for about 3 years...too long!!) I thrive on constant interaction, creativity, diversity, and artistic freedom. I have learned that if I just do what I like, others will follow. Some will like what I do and some won't. But that's OK. If we were all the same how boring would the world be? My mommy instincts have led me to a life of service. Nothing special, nothing extraordinary (though I wanted to join the peace corps when I was 18 and when I told my mom she flipped her lid and almost had a feberal siezure...) but for now I'm happy serving coffee, making people's pets look cute again, making people laugh with my simply silly creations, and most of all, being a mommy.
Interests Buying clothes for my son, Shopping for my son, coffee, gourd art, giving my husband grief, loving my family, hating dog hair. (hate is such a strong word...)
Favorite Movies Ah, whatever I'm watching at the time. All time favs, My Fair Lady, Fiddler on the Roof, Harry Potter Movies & Lord of The Rings
Favorite Music Celtic, James Taylor, The Beatles, Ben Taylor, Damien Rice - I'm thinking I like folk and indie music lately...
Favorite Books Yeah, whatever floats my boat. Oprah's choices are way too depressing. I like the Mitford Series, Harry Potter and am looking into some pioneer type books incase we will have to grow our own food for survival in the next 20 years...

Why does the taste of pennies remind you of losing a tooth?

Why the tooth fairy of course!
