I have always been very interested in crafting. In school I was always in the ceramic classes or doing sketches..That desire to create is still very strong..

Today, I work as an engineer in which I design different products for companies in the US, China, Germany, and France. The creativity in my job is different than being able to relax while doing a craft. I enjoy working in clay and have made several pots on a potters wheel and small sculptures..

I find it fun to work on small altered projects with things like watch parts and recycled items. My wife is snowqueen1426 on here.

I guess most of the music I love comes from the 80's. But have a list of artists I do love:

• Eric Clapton
• John Fogerty
• Phil Collins
• Meat Loaf
• Chicago
• Santana
• McCartney
• Sting
  and many more.

Most of my reading is technical. But I do have several favorites Authors..
- James Patterson
- John E Mack
- James Mitchner
- M Scott Peck MD - Dean Koonz - Rowlings - Robin Cook - Maltz (Psycho Cybernetics) I've read: To Kill A Mocking Bird at least 3 times. Along with, The Thorn Birds, and The Stand..

I love Altered arts and card magazines and anything to do with ceramics.

I'm not much into going to the movies due to cost but love to rent them. And now the local Blockbuster may be going out of business and that is sad. I guess I may have to resort to the ones at McDonalds..

CSI Miami is my favorite. 60 minutes, 20 - 20, Dateline and most news programing are something I like to keep up with.

I am in the process of finishing a quilt. I sew by hand.. and it's been a big job. going on two years.. but it will be beautiful when done. The pattern name is "Grandmother's Flower Garden" and has hundreds of pieces.. Dear wife has been very patient with me on this undertaking.. She is much better at quilting than I am.
I make and sell my ceramic/pottery at a consignment shop..
But the most relaxing thing is to just draw with pencil or pen and ink. I collect, postcards with recipe, but like all PC's.. old non-running watches. marbles, guitar picks, glass beads. metal figures, little army men or animals,

NOTE: my wife is .. snowqueen1426
