I am here for Friends

About Me

Let's see. I am female. Wait, let me check. Hey! Turn your back! Yep. Female. I have been married lo these past 12 years to Jon and we have one daughter who goes by HG. That's short for Her Grace. I have lived in Lower Michigan since I came down here to college in 1989. Moved to Wisconsin for a bit, but then moved back to MI for good. My family lives in a nice house, but we are looking to move somewhere soon - all depending on where Jon's company puts him.For fun, I am involved in the Michigan Renaissance Festival - and any other faire I can get to. I like to design and sew my own garb.

For those of you who know my husband - you know that he is pretty much anti-social.  For those of you who do not know him, trust me.  He deals well with others and can play nice.  He ju...
