A Laugh Is A Smile That Bursts

About Me

I'm just enjoying life in general with my husband of 9 years and son who is 4 yrs. old. My professional background is in nursing and I love caring for people who are sick or can't take care of themselves. Now I'm a stay at home mom so my "job" is taking care of my son, which I love the most! I have a variety of interests such as working out at the gym, scrapbooking, gardening, and having friends over for dinner or just hanging out with them wherever. My husband is crazy about Texas holdem poker, so I'm slowly getting better at that. I'm also part of a book club which meets once a month. My biggest project this year, which actually consists of many small projects, is to fix up the house we just bought. It's still a fairly new house, but I want to customize it to my taste. I'm also enjoying singing with the praise team at my church, using a microphone for the first time in years! I used to play the flute which I pick up every now and then and am determined to one day learn to play the piano. So, as you can see, I love music. I'm also having fun catching up with friends here on myspace. That's me in a nutshell!

Quick Blog

Here's my thought/question of the day.  Why do people plant fake flowers in their yards?  Why they do that, I will never know!
