About Me

..
Ok, so I'm a little O.C.D. I don't like my food to touch and I eat one thing at a time... I count stuff a lot.... I'm extremely anal about spelling and I correct bulletin questions before I fill them out.... I won't EVER wear a scented lotion unless I have the same smell of perfume because I don't like to mix smells.... I'm extremely opinionated and if I don't like something I make it clear. Sometimes I can be really funny and every now and then I can be very serious. I have friends in my life (that I love so much) who have loved me through every single trial of my existence. I have a husband who makes me laugh, who takes care of me, who puts up with me, and who loves me in spite of everything I listed above. I am blessed beyond measure. God has given me so many wonderful experiences, trials, dreams, goals, friendships, loves, loves lost... I couldn't ask for a more special and fulfilling life. I am thankful for everyday I wake up and every night that I go to sleep. Thank you to my friends and family who have been anchors for me. I love you.This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? using original artwork by Marah Johnson. Go get one!

My Interests



I'm pretty much a homebody but I like to hang out with Chris and our friends playing board and card games, watching movies, or even just talking. I met Chris in November 2001. We began dating in Sept 2002 and were married April 5, 2003. Chris totally rocks my world! I'm overwhelmed each day knowing that I have a man in my life who will always take care of me and love me. I love history and I'm a sucker for useless trivia, so if you have something interesting to share, tell me!! By the way, my first blog is about the making of toilet paper. Read it, I guarantee you'll never forget it. :D
People Envy Your Confidence
You have the attitude and self esteem to take on anything. Failure is beyond not an option for you - it doesn't even cross your mind.
People envy your ability to take on any challenge ... and they're secretly afraid you think you're better than them. You don't. You're just sure of yourself. What Do People Envy About You?

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to reconnect with old classmates or people I've known in the past and I'm totally open to making new friends too. I am most definitely NOT interested in making a new love connection...

Music:

Mostly Christian music but I love Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, Tony Bennett, John Legend, Norah Jones, Harry Connick Jr, and Michael Buble'... Among others...

Movies:


Love Actually, Vanity Fair, P.S. I Love You, National Treasure and National Treasure: Book of Secrets, You've Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle, Must Love Dogs, Boondock Saints, De Ja Vu, Gone With the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, I think Terms of Endearment is the greatest movie ever, and that White Christmas is the greatest Christmas movie ever.

Television:

The History Channel, Big Love, Pushing Daisies, Life, CSI, Law and Order, The Bachelor, Dancing with the Stars, Desperate Housewives, Brothers and Sisters, ER

Books:

Little Women (my all time favorite book), Pride & Prejudice, Memoirs of a Geisha, The Ya Ya books, An Underground Education by Richard Zacks, and just about anything by John Grisham, Nicholas Sparks, & James Patterson.

Heroes:

My husband, Chris. He overcame so many challenges in his life and he just keeps going and going. He spent 5 years in the US Marine Corps and when he left the USMC he found that his calling was to stay here in Jacksonville and serve the Lord. I appreciate him so much as he daily lives his life as an example of Christ to me. I'm honored to be his wife.
