I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Well, I must admit I am very much like a 70 year old lady when it comes to hobbies; sewing, crochet, felting, needlecragts, embroidery.... I...love...it...all...so...much. Also, I enjoy photography, drawing and painting. On the other hand, my husband gets frustrated that I don’t do it enough. I start things and don’t finish them. I have big ideas. I’m a hopeless dreamer. I love my family and the small group of people I consider true friends. I am a proud mama to a little girl named Sailor Leigh. I change a lot of diapers. I love the golden era of reggae and 1st wave ska. The stork dropped me off in the wrong place. To put it simply, I am an island girl trapped in a southern belle world.href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vcGhvdG9idWNr ZXQuY29tLw==" target="_blank"

My Interests


Island life, Good beer in open-air bars, the art of hair, Tattoos and the art of, Vintage exotica, Photography, sleeping during thunderstorms, the sunset, the sunrise, ocean breezes, people who can hold my interest for more than 5 min, riding in cars, looking out, looking in, watching my husband when he doesn't know, wind gusts, feeling alive, Drawing & painting Caribbean folk art, Good Beer Drinking Music, Collecting Quotes, Writing Horrific Trash Novels, Red Meat, Caribbean architecture, Island (Interior) Design, Roots Reggae, loving my Daughter, Sailor Leigh and my Hubby, Trent, Singing and not knowing all the words, early mornin coffee in solitude with the sotto voce slumber of my family, appreciating the beauty of the elderly... cool sheets, soft lips, getting goosebumps, eye gazing, saying everything, saying nothing, eye laughter-the pain of holding it in, keep it interesting, staying grounded, lavish day-dreaming, thinking for myself, sleeping with smiles, relishing every moment ...
