Introduction I am one of those people that never met a craft I didn't try once or twice. You name it I've probably done it, at least with jobs and crafts. I guess you would have to call me a Jill of all trades and master of very few! I love a good book, a sappy romantic comedy, and lightning storms. I also love wind storms, especially at the beach. There is an awesome power in the elements that just intrigues me. I cry at Hallmark commercials, coffee commercials, I pretty much bawl at the drop of a hat. Guess that makes me a sentimental sap, even though I'm told, that if you meet me that is not how I am perceived. I have a great sense of humor and I'm able to laugh at myself and the stupid things that I do. Sometimes, embarrassment prevails for a while, but eventually, I see the humor in things. I see myself as a survivor. I went through some rough times when I was younger. Those times and the stupid things that I've done in my life, have made me a better person today. They certainly made me stronger. I'd say I'm one of the good guys, and at this point in my life I can say "I like me".
Interests My first love is wood turning, but I haven't been able to do it for a while. My good friend and mentor, Frank Lynn died in 2008 and I just can't turn without thinking of him. He would have a fit if he knew I wasn't turning because of him... but maybe soon. Then quilting and making jewelry. I love working with silver wire.
Favorite Movies Ladies in Lavender, Murphy's Romance, Somewhere in Time, Fried Green Tomatoes, Steel Magnolias, yup, sappy movies with happy endings are my faves
Favorite Music Acoustic Guitar, Country, Light Jazz, blues
Favorite Books Favorite authors - Nora Roberts & Debbie Macomber and remember Mary Stewart? She was very popular in the 60's and early 7-'s. I just love her.

Why don't you ever wear a scarf? It doesn't need to be cold outside for your neck to feel naked.

You mean I have a neck? Well of course I do! It used to hide under my chins, but now it's shinin' right out there in the open! Looks like a turkey waddle, but by gosh it's there!
