Left In The Woods

I am here for Friends

About Me

Drawn to unique individuals I respect those who can be themselves. I am an extremely visual person and routine sucks the life out of me. You will find me to be acutely detail oriented and focused unless I see a bird or something shiny. Gardening is a passion of mine. There is something so gratifying about taking a barren piece of land and turning it into an ever changing palette of color and texture. I paint and refinish things, love to cook for a captive audience and delight in discovering new music. Reading and writing are very important to me and I love trapsing through the woods. It's difficult for me to stay inside when it's sunny but then again being outside when it's raining can be just as wonderful...I volunteer with United Animal Nations...bringing animals out of crisis.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Bloggers, writers, lovers of music and nature, people who can think for themselves and have opinions they are willing to share.
