Some called it gutsy - some called it a good reason to show off my assets...I called it a joke!

About Me

I'm just a simple southern girl with two children who loves to have fun.

My Interests

The list could go on and on - kind of like the song that never ends but I will shorten for the sake of time and your sanity. Spending time with my family (especially my two chldren) and friends. Cooking, Sewing, playing resuscitate with the little ones, and just kicking back relaxing. When I get the opportunity I do love to travel.

I'd like to meet:

Mmmmhh - perhaps Warren Harding - arguably the worst United States president of all time. Oh Ha HA Ha. Alright -- in all reality I have a good family, good friends, and all in all a good life. I'm not looking to meet anyone else but by golly if I meet more people I'm not going to complain.

Music:

I LOVE IT ALL! Of course country will always have my heart - and George Strait will always be my secret lover but outside of that I will listen to most anything.

Movies:

Typically I watch animated movies due to the little ones. And really with such a short attention span I don't watch many movies over and over with the exception of Gone in 60 seconds and Napoleon Dynamite.

Television:

I have found that the more productive life is the less time I have to watch TV. I honestly can't tell you that last time I sat through a whole tv show though from what I understand some people are so obsessed with the tv that they even have parties dedicated to it. Go figure - I don't understand but once again I typically am up and about doing stuff.

Books:

This is probably in the same category as music. I love to read - everything. From books, to magazines, to the newspaper, heck I will even read the informational pamphlets at the dr's office (by now I should be able to diagnose a huge variety of diseases).

Heroes:

I have left this blank for so long because I did not want to sound generic. Of course I look to my mom as a hero - doesn't everyone? As well as many others - but really my heroes are the people who everyday stand up for what is right and get no attention for it. For the person who does a good job even when there is no benefit to them. The person who tells the truth even though it might hurt. The person who helped me with my groceries or held the door open for me. These people are my heroes because they make the world great.
