About Me


Free Countdown Clocks at WishAFriend.com


I live in near the Triad of NC. Have 5 great kids (3 mine, 2 his, all "ours"), a wonderful hubby, and my baby (dachshund) Rusty. He's a total Mama's Boy. :) I enjoy gardening, reading, watching bad reality tv, spending time with my children and husband, and and others that I love. I'm blessed to have a great family, great friends, two great jobs (well, most of the time they are great), and just an all-around great life here in Small Town, America. Some might think it's boring, I think it's perfect. :)
