Who Do I think I am?
I am....
An artist, a teacher, a wife, a friend, a philosopher, a student, a musician, a designer, a neighbor, a liberal... and so much more!
When out of school, I spend most of my time hanging with my wonderful husband and friends, creating art, listening to music, and playing with my dogs and cat. I am also finishing my grad degree. My photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/staple10/
