I used to have a long list here. Then I realized, what DON'T I enjoy? I find myself repeating to people A LOT the phrase..."Oh, I LOVE that!!"..or..."this is my FAVORITE..." So...instead of listing a few of my favoirte things, I'm going to tell a story, if i may......One time...my grandma was washing the dishes and looking out the window into the backyard. I was drying. At one point she moved to the left and said, "ya know, if you stand right here, it looks like the backyard is a forest."And so marked one of the turning points in the development of my immagination. It was one of those moments in your life that shapes the way you think about everything after that. My lesson was simple. Perspective. Life is all about it. What I enjoy and find interesting is all in how I look at things. And more often than not, I have found, that when I look close enough or long enough or from different angles, EVERYTHING is interesting to me. From staring out the window to the backyard, to food, to theatre, to the outdoors, to a person. I like to enjoy all sides and marvel in the details. Some may think this is a good thing, but I assure you, it is a CURSE. For there have been one too many a time when I was supposed to be doing one thing, and I found something else just a little too interesting at that moment:o) But that's a whole can of other stories...which make up the story of my life...*sigh

I love music. I wake up with songs in my head. I sing to the radio at the top of my lungs. I sing on people's voicemails. If i'm by myself you can pretty much wager i'm humming a tune. My favorites?...well, let's see...I'm a musical theatre freak. Can't help it. I love 'em. I also enjoy accoustic, Indie, folk, anything with a Latin beat, and yes, country.
at the moment there are two TV shows that I can't get enough of. I absolutely love "LOST." And I'm obessed with "Project Runway" I watch it religiously every Wednesday night. This summer I was really into "So you think you can dance"....yessssssssssssss!
Biographies. I like learning about people's lives. My all time favorite is the journals of Jim Elliot in Shadow of the Almighty. It's so inspiring to me and I've read it about 5 times.
My mom and my grandma. These two women in my life have been the models to me of how a woman of God lives, acts, thinks, prays, works, gives and loves. They are the most honest, and humble people I've ever met. They challenge me in thier relationship with the Lord, thier generosity, wisdom, their outlook on life and people, and their responses to challenging situations.
