I had my firstborn in 1986, Jared, from my 1st marriage. My 2nd child, Vanessa was born in 1990 from my 2nd marriage. I was a single mom for quite a few years working in doctor's offices, and barely surviving. Greg and I married in 1998, and had Carissa in 2000. The pic above was taken about 3 years ago. Greg is a very caring awesome man, and works hard to provide for us. I've been working in medical billing at PMI in Boise, Idaho for 10 years now. I am blessed to have a great job to have extra money for my hobbies!
I can't live without my fiskars paper trimmer ( I have 3 of them), my sharp scissors, and my paper piercer. {My paper piercer has many uses other than just making holes for mini brads!} I buy a lot of DCWV paper stacks with my coupons at Joann's. I love working with bright colors.
My favorite TV shows have always been Little House on the Prairie, The Waltons, and ER!
I guess my bad habit would have to be cafeine. I love Pumpkin Spice latte's from Starbucks this time of year!
If I could hang out with anyone for the day, I guess it would be a soldier in Iraq. I would like to take a lot of photos of what goes on there. I know it would be dangerous, so the only thing stopping me would be that I have children (and a grandchild on the way) that depend on me right now. I'll leave it at that.
I love collecting Coca Cola stuff! It just looks cool! My kitchen is done in that theme. I also knit & crochet. I've been teaching knitting classes at work on my lunch breaks. It's a blast!

Since I have hit my 40's, I am more sure of who I am. I have stronger political & moral views. My self image is not dependent on what others think of me. It's nice when people agree with me, but if they don't, I am fine with that. I have come to realize that even though others don't agree with me, I don't take it personal. Everyone has the right to their own views, as long as they respect mine. I believe in family morals and values. The family is the heart of this country, and does not need to be redefined!
I also enjoy being a nut, and doing things totally unexpected! I dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow this Halloween and won 1st place at work. My coworkers could not figure out who I was! It was great!
