In short

  • WEbook & FaceBook have become my lifelines.  I love connecting with other people through pictures, thoughts & words.  I like hearing other people's points of views; they help me refine my own. 
    I'm born & bred Southern gal.  I love my kids and my hubby more than anything.  I have one brother, but many friends who feel like the siblings I never had.
    I love to laugh and I am accused of being "Polyanna" on ocassion.  But I try to keep grounded through my family, friends and faith.
    My number one pet peeve is people who won't take accountability for their own actions.  I think that is lazy and sinful.
    I have found I love reading fantasy literature, because it lets my imagination stretch.  But I also enjoy writing about every day life and all points in between.
    I never run out of things to say about my kids & hubby.  They are my inspiration.

  • I put more miles on my minivan (in town) than many traveling sales people do (out of town).  In fact, I have a front vanity license plate that says, "Mom's Taxi"
