About me

Gender Female
Industry Arts
Location Missouri, United States
Introduction I am Marcie. I sing out loud (sometimes really loud- much to the chargrin of my son), dance in secret and dream for more. If I were a color right now it would be claret red with subtle undertones of caramel gold. I make & teach mosaic art, but have other creative expression knocking at my door. At the end of it all I like to be: * called a friend of God * someone who stood with others - loyal even when the distance is long * known by my children as a wise mama who held their hearts with honor * celebrated as a woman who feels deep, loves hard, laughs loud and lives brimming with life.
Interests Anything adventuresome. Thrift store, yard & garage sale shopping. Decorating. Anything artsy fartsy and I am all for it. Mosaic art. Mercy & Justice oriented stuff. Jesus. For whatever reason I have a thing about RV's and travel.
Favorite Movies I have to admit that I really liked G.I. Jane (she kicked tushie), Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Sense and Sensibility, The Abyss, The 5th Element, Amelie, Schindlers List (keeps it real, Shawshank Redemption, EverAfter, The Princess Bride, Anna & the King, Amazing Grace, Waking Ned Devine, The Bucket List, Billy Elliot, Saving Grace, August Rush, On a Clear Day, The Great Debaters, Martian Child, Unstrung Heroes.
