    About Me

    well, lets see...I Love to cook..Soups are my speciality..But I also like to bake..I love to garden, and just be outside in the fresh air. Always makes me feel more alive..I suffer from depression, am an alcoholic, and a few other issues..I lost my dad, my best friend, on Dec.29th..I miss him alot..but each day seems to be getting a little better than the day before...still have bad days but the good days seem to be outweighing them these days..

    Interests

    I am an avid Pool player, in fact my womans team placed 1st in our county..It was pretty exciting..I also enjoy the time I get to spend with my grandaughter Mackenzie, who is 1 year old. Right now my husband and I are building a new house, we hope to be in it by the end of this summer, quite the project, has been fun, stressful and everywhere in between..I can't wait to see it when it is finished..
