My childhood was wonderful. My teen years were fun and a learning experience. My 20's were challenging but rewarding. My 30's were filled with love, laughter and pain. I embark on my 40's with a new outlook and new perspective - so far they have been amazing. I have three wonderful children, a great daughter-in-law and a beautiful granddaughter. My husband is fantastic - he's my calm in this storm I call life. I love my parents, my big sister and her family. I absolutely would rather be spending time with my family and friends than anything else. My kids and now my granddaughter have brought such joy into my life. Who knew being a grandmother would be SO much fun! Facts about me - I am a neat freak - I can't stand for things to be out of place. I analyze things and situations way too much. I always need to know the answers to things, even when there are no answers. I try to take care of everybody and hate it when I can't fix a problem for somebody. I am obsessive compulsive - I have to work on that daily so as not to drive everybody else crazy! I put my jewelry on in the same order every morning. I cannot stand to leave the house if the bed is not made up. I believe in love, karma, ghosts and the afterlife. I am freaky weird about the number 7. I am scared of bridges, heights and the dark. I HATE scary movies. I don't like for my food to touch on my plate - divided plates were made just for me. I don't like gummy bears, licorice, Twizzlers or anything with that texture. I have amazing friends and I live for the unexpected moments of silliness and fun that we share. My addictions include: Starbucks caramel macchiatos, bad boys(before my husband - and he's one too - but a good bad boy),shoes - I LOVE shoes, singing whether it be karaoke at Velmas or on stage with a band, music, my new IPOD, tattoos, Harleys and my granddaughter. There have been many, many wild and crazy moments in my lifetime. I ALWAYS get stuck in airports - my flights are always delayed or cancelled. I love lemonade and pixie sticks. I love to sing - I sing all the time. I love to laugh until I can't breathe. I love my KISS t-shirt and my high school boyfriend's old football sweatpants. I find it very hard to relax and I am always thinking about what I need to do next. I believe you should always spend time with your girlfriends. I like to shoot pool and play darts although I'm not very good at either. I am a people watcher. My husband says I am a freak magnet - you can bet at a concert, sporting event or other public venue that the loudest, most obnoxious weirdo is going to be seated next to me. My hair color is always changing. I think you are never too old to go rollerskating or to ride a rollercoaster. I will always be a daddy's girl. I have learned that I am much stronger than I ever thought I was. I think you should surround yourself with good people. I love the girls I work with - they make me laugh and we find various topics of conversation to amuse ourselves with during the day. I love my job and what I do - it can be stressful at times but what job isn't. I never want to have "should've, would've, could'ves" in my life. Don't put off today what you want to do - tomorrow may never come. I lost someone very special to me on June 5th, 2003 - I know he is my special angel that watches over me. Above all else - LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE Girly Myspace Layouts
