About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Breast Cancer

My name is Kara. I am twenty-sixteen (that's 36 for the humorless folks) and HAPPILY married to a mighty man of God. He has also blessed me with two gorgeous step-daughters.
I am big, outgoing, silly at times,(I'm not afraid to let out the little girl in me),love Mambas, Mini M & N's and Now & Laters, and peach ANYTHING! I speak fluent Sarcasm, am fairly well traveled, well read and spoken and I could give you the standard "I am comfortable in jeans on a motorcycle, or in an evening gown at a ball", but the truth of the matter is, clothes don't prove my comfort, just being ME is when I am at my highest level of comfort. I love children, basketball, cooking, all types of music and feel it's important to know the difference between "a hand up and a hand out". I don't just throw a dollar at a beggar, I strive to make changes to the homeless situation. 1. If I want drama, I tune in to reality TV (which is one of my guilty pleasures). 2. Excess baggage is okay on vacation but not to carry around in daily life. 3. You can't be successful unless you know the true meaning of Integrity. 4. As you would with traffic, look both ways before crossing me. Stay tuned, I'd love to share more...
