I'm a single mom working hard to make a better life for my daughter and me. I work in the healthcare field, and recently accomplished the completion of my associates degree in nursing. (Believe it was a looooooong time coming!) My interests are not bound by one subject. I live to learn, and love learning about anything. Researching any topic is exciting as long as I don't have to write a report up about it. To keep me busy when not studying or taking care of my little one I work on a maternity ward as a health unit coordinator, and as an Army Medic in the National Guard. I try to live my life by making the world a better place one person at a time. I hope to do short stints in humanitarian work oversees or in South America with my nursing degree. To further my education in different aspects of the human being, I hope to get a degree in Anthropolgy or Sociology later on. I am very free spirited and do not like to be bound by social rules that diminish the natural human being, a person's spirit, or are just outright dumb. Though I TRY to heed to the will of the Heavenly Father (countless failures but he still loves me:) ).

Some favorite things: Making goofy faces, talking to babies and making them giggle, the rain and rainbows, whipped cream out of a can, long talks, walks in the woods, thrill rides, watching geese fly, writing songs, listening to wind chimes, being held in someone's arms, falling in love and staying there, wearing jeans a T-shirt and a hoodie, how crystals break up light and make rainbows, taking a great picture that captures the true essence of the moment or the spirit in someone, smooth shaved legs (on myself), acting like a dork to make others laugh, just taking the time to sit and think even if it's for three hours, dancing 'til exhaustion, purple irises and the smell of lillies, kiddy cocktails with extra cherries, sitting on the edge of a lake or river and just watching life happen in that moment, stained glass windows and Tiffany style lamps, knowing when I've helped someone, the power and beauty of fire, the relief of passing gas outta either end, mangoes with sweet sticky rice, food so spicy it makes me cry, serving my country, the amazing feeling when I know I'm in the presence of the Holy Spirit, watching my daughter grow up, the colors of the sky at sunset/sunrise (especially this one little spot on Como Lake), singing to the Heavenly Father, sushi (especially with wasabi), looking with pride on an accomplishment, my cat laying on her back waiting for her belly to be rubbed, eating brownies in a bowl soaking in milk, smells that remind me of good memories, square shapes, little kids' feet, decorating, helping plants grow, the peace I see in a person's face when they're sleeping, having the dishes done, seeing families at work that are so happy with their new babies, dressing up for a ball and feeling like a princess, the song Footloose, dreaming of all the possibilities ahead...
