About Me

Hmmm...a bit about me. Well, I'm 30 now and who would have thought my life to this point would have been so crazy! I have a job that I really do love (we make statues!) and it keeps me out of trouble. I'm slowly in the process of getting my place the way I want it. Even though I do kinda live in the ghetto I still love my place! I have 3 kitties and I love them to death. They can be quite amusing. I'm working on losing weight and getting healthy after that whole cancer thing...That's really about it...as M. M. would say I am just LIVIN!I feel so blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life!So this part is for my friends...If I've been distant or flakey lately please don't take it to heart...I'm just trying to spare ya'll from the daily crappiness of my life right now. I'm working on being a better friend. I've just gotten use to ya'll depending on me so it's hard for me to show that I'm actually not as strong as ya'll think I am.Last but never least...to my family I love you guys! To my little bro...You're the best bro a big sis could ever have and that's fab in my book. I'm super proud of you and love you loads.I may not always share a ton of myself, but I always listen and offer a shoulder to those who need it.Much love, hugs & smooches to all... ElliePS. A very dear friend's mom is very ill so if ya'll can pray for her that would mean the world to me
