A Happy Girl

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

About Me

I just moved to Oklahoma from Gig Harbor, Washington. I miss it a lot - mostly the water, trees, and mountains, but especially my family, friends, and my horse, Komet. I'm a nursing major, so I spend waaay too much time studying, and when I'm not studying, I'm at the barn. My highest priorities right now are school, training my horse, Boo, and my totally fun job! Most people call me Cat. I adore meeting new people down here, but some of the words crack me up. I love getting mail, it makes me happy. I really love getting packages - especially with fun things from my favorite people who adore me.
