| Introduction | I am 34, married for 13 years and, have two sons ages 12 and almost 9. I am disabled for the past 7 years and it has been rough on my boys and husband to say the least. I watch only HGTV and DIY Network daily to keep up on the latest construction and renovation techniques and trends. I have met some really great people along the way that share the same enthusiasm for home improvement. I have made some pretty substantial changes to our starter home that was purchased about 10 years ago. I love to work on my SUV,(anything to add a little horsepower:-)I have worked on cars since I was a little girl and have owned 2 early model Mustangs in the past (a '65 coupe and a '73 Fastback). I also enjoy building and restoring old furniture, some I have kept, most I have sold; though, I am on a break from this right now due to my health:( I enjoy Rate My Space and all of the wonderful, talented people I have met along the way. |
