| Introduction | Wanna-be-runner trying to find motivation to get her "move" on. |
| Interests | Travel and sitting still...not at the same time. Signing up and Training for events (never to win, just to finish) - I've done 2 full marathons, 3 half-marathons and 1 Triathlon and currently training for my 3rd marathon (Big Sur 09). Reading lots of books - walking my dog - visiting wineries, therefore drinking wine is a hobby - I should get a medal for drinking wine, I am good at it! Traveling anywhere with my husband - porch parties with friends - Panther football - sitting in rocking chairs - reading newspapers (several of them daily) - I am addicted to newspapers. Online just won't do. Photography, I love my camera. Believe it or not...washing dishes. Some people meditate, I wash dishes. I am at my happiest when my suitcase is packed and we are going somewhere.Interests:Positively in love with my husband who is my very best friend - he makes me happy every single day. Step-Mom to 2 amazing and cool people who allow me to love them. My favorite thing is a dinner party. Good conversations, good wine, good food. Naps on Sunday afternoons. I collect dishes and rocks from places I have been. I am Cal Ripken 's biggest fan even in his retirement. Cal is the father of my unborn children. I love sailing on the blue water, I just don't get there often enough. UGA Footbawl! I like current events and I am a complete news junkie. And I won't lie....I pay attention to pop culture, I pretend I don't, but I do. It's important to know critical pop culture. Also, I must pay attention in case Nick and Jessica get back together. It could happen. |
