I am a Mother of 5 ... 2 boys & 3 girls! Ages ranging from 15 to 6. I am about to marry my best friend and the love of my life ... he was actually my high school sweetie!! Very romantic story - but for another time!

I used to stay home and craft all the time ... but being back to working a 'real' job makes my crafting a lot less - although I do wish I could spend more time on my hobbies!

I absolutely LOVE all things handmade - I collect handmade Raggedy Annies, Crows, anything Americana, Candles.

Other than my crafts I absolutely love to FISH!!! And spend lots of time out on the lake and in the garden!

I like just about allll kinds of music. Not so much jazz or classical though or the really fast hard crunk stuff ( think they call it crunk! LoL)

I like most books too ... not mushy love stories though ... they are ok IF they have more to them than just mush ... like maybe a love/mystery or somthing like that. My faves seem to be books about murderers ... like the real live murderers ... sounds morbid hu? But I am one of those people that like to get into the head of someone like that and find out WHY? would they do the things they do?

Not too much into watching movies ... I will sit down and watch one with my honey but 9 times out of 10 I just fall asleep

Reality!!! Love it!!! Most anyway ... some are just STUPID!

I watch Greys Anatomy, Young and the Restless, Desperate Housewives and I think that is about it!

I love all things handmade ... well most ... nothing flowery. Just not into floral!! My most favorite things are Americana, primitive (Not tooo grungy ... like scarry grungy .... just WELL loved), western, crows (love 'em), I LOVE RAGGEDY ANNS - handmade ones and not the ones that are JUST like the original. LOVE quilts! Colors - I like red (not bright), blues (kind of the denim blue and dark blue), mustards, rust, browns and black. NO pastels ... not for me! AND NO CUTESY ... again not for me!
