About Me

I'm employed full time in the medical device industry. I love to be barefoot, when I get home, the shoes come off. My must have every day is Dr. Pepper. I'm married for the second and last time. I have two grown and gone children, boy and a girl. I grew up in the boonies of northeast Texas. I always said growing up that I wanted to live where I wouldn't have to get my feet muddy to get somewhere. And I always have. I don't mind getting muddy but it has to be because I want to. I love thrift stores for all the weird, odd, and useful stuff you can find. Not a big fan of paying retail. I have 2 cats that are crazy but insist they are not. I buy and sell on ebay.

Favorite Music

My favorite music is old school country. Give me some Johnny Cash, George Jones, Conway Twitty, Buck Owens, Mickey Gilley, Gary Stewart. Most any from the 50s, 60s, & 70s. Ancestry.com tells me that Billy Joe Shaver is my 4th cousin once removed. Not exactly kin to royalty, but interesting.

Favorite Books

My favorite book of all time is The Stand by Stephen King. I've read it three or four times. I like Jack Reacher novels (by Lee Child) but am generally not a big fan of recurring characters. I will read pretty much anything though.

Favorite Television

Love NCIS, Antiques Roadshow, Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men. I don't watch a lot of TV. Mostly prefer to read or craft.

Favorite Crafts

I love to cross-stitch. Collage, atcs, and altered art all appeal to me because there's no right or wrong. I always wanted to make a quilt but I can't seem to get enthused about making the same block over and over and making sure my corners match. (Which really flies in the face of x-stitch, how repetitive is that??) So I've started a crazy quilt block. I can sew but its been a while since I've made clothing.

Things I like...

cats, pigs, burros, lizards, bugs, spiders, red, yellow, soft greens, earth tones, vintage ephemera, valentines, keys, clock gears, buttons, beads, charms trinkets, irises, daisies, lilies, tokens, Hawaiian print fabrics, feathers, birds, stamps, chocolate, lemon cookies, tamales, books, embroidery thread, cool-looking old boxes, pens, the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, the American flag

Things I don't like (or need).

Kid/ baby stuff. Too cute country items.

Comment: Thanks for the zentangled Cs. They are both great. You shouldn't be intimidated by me as a partner. I am excited about getting others into swaps and zentangles and I appreciate everything! Sorry for the delay. I wrote the comment but forgot to pick a rating at the top.

Comment: I am also not a fan of water, can't swim... the ocean is super scary! But I did try to surf, kayak and boogie board one time... I don't know what I was thinking (I think because all of those items are buoyant maybe I was kidding myself that I couldn't drown). But my friend was a life guard and she made me feel safe. Probably won't do it again though... we have had more and more shark sightings.
