About Me

I'm a very optimistic person and love to smile. :) I have dishwater blond hair, blue eyes, and am 6 feet tall. Life is much too short to be sad and there's way too much to be happy about! So just let the bright yellow sun shine through you and pass it on to others! You never know whose day you'll make!!! :) I love getting to know and meet new people! :D I'm very energetic; I'm an optimist, but also a realist; I love Mother Earth, and believe in leaving her in a little better shape before I leave her; I am that I am! :) If you want to know more, please feel free to ask me, and I'll be more than happy to answer ya!!! :D
