I am the proud mother of three beautiful daughters. We have three cats: a calico named Kiara, an all black male named Dabu, and a grey tiger named "Princess Leia", or Leia for short. We also have a Mini Rat Terrier officially named "Li'L Miss Sophie," but we just call her Missy.Right now I am in between things. I'm sorta learning Welsh, but it's hard to learn a language without someone to practice with. I'm getting good at reading it and hearing it, but not at speaking it or writing it.Trying to catch up on reading books that I haven't had time to read... I could read more if I wasn't on the internet alllll the time... :DAddicted to playing games at Millsbury.com and "Colin and Cumberland." Also to watching vids on various video sites. Was addicted to watching movies online, but now that I've found the "On Demand" button... not so much.

I'd like to meet:

Dewi Morris... He makes learning Cymraeg so much fun, I don't even realize I'm learning. Watching him mentor Stu in last years Big Welsh Challenge was two kids play, and if more teachers taught this way, no one would ever leave school! It would be too much fun! His tutoring section on the online cwrs makes me laugh, and I walk away realizing I've learn 10 times as much as with anything else I've ever used to learn languages. Da iawn, Dewi!
