It is what it is

About Me

Love: southern food and sweet tea, cleaning, walking barefoot, dirty jokes, making someone laugh (I'll do just about anything if it gets you to have a good laugh), a good strong drink, getting published, finishing a race, and traveling. Hate: When pple don't use their turn signals and when they drive with them on, when pple don't leave a message when they call and Michigan radio stations. I'm the proud sister of a military officer and can say we are the home of the free b/c of the brave. I should probably confess that my mind is constantly in the gutter and if I'm laughing seemingly without reason, it's probably b/c I was thinking something unspeakable. ... shhh....
