I have worked a number of interesting jobs in my life some of the most entertaining include, photofinishing technician, stable hand, nanny and museum attendant.  Through all of my high school years I worked in a photofinishing lab where film was developed, printed, enlarged etc.  This job was so much fun it was like taking a peek into people’s lives!  I worked there for 5 years and saw photos of children being born all the way through there first few birthdays!  It was like knowing their lives without ever actually knowing them.  The photos that came through the lab were not always appropriate for a 14 year old to see, but that never stopped my supervisor from having me print them anyhow!

If I could go anywhere in the world on vacation where would it be?  This is just a difficult question to answer because the destination and reasoning changes from day to day it seems!  Today I think my dream vacation would be to visit Bali.  The art and culture of Bali has always been very interesting to me, specifically the detailed carvings and ink work that artisans of the area are known for.  The beautiful climate and beautiful vistas also draw my interest as an ecotourist! I think it would be amazing to take a cooking class with a local chef, shopping in one of the large markets for fresh ingredients and creating a dish with those new and exotic or otherwise unknown to me spices!  What a dream!

I would say that my husband knows me like the back of his hand, but one thing about me is that I don’t consider myself smart. I like to pretend that I am smart, but I don’t have a lot of “book brains,” I do however consider myself to have a lot of common sense. My husband is working on his doctoral program, and I don’t even have any degrees under my belt. I became a teenage parent, twice, and it kind of not necessarily messed up my life, just changed plans. I do plan on going back to school one day, but I don’t consider myself book smart. If I don’t see it on the news, I have no clue.

My main thing that I look forward to these days is my husband being done with his doctoral program. I know he is ready to complete it as well. We are planning a family vacation to California, and I really hope that it works out for us. On a regular basis, I usually look forward to the weekends, so they can be spent with my family. I am defiantly a family oriented person, and love spending quality time with our children, whether it is baking cookies with them are watching movies. I look forward to Fridays, like most people do.

I’m pretty much a homebody, well for now anyways. My husband is working on his doctorate degree, and so he stays in the man cave writing his dissertation, while I am stuck tending to our kids. On Friday night, my husband did get out to take a break, and we took our three children to the Christmas parade that was held up town. The high school band was playing, old cars, fire trucks, police cars, and to top it off, Santa Claus. The rest of the weekend was spent doing a little bit of Christmas shopping.

There are so many things that are wrong with the World, if I sat here and listed everything, we would be here forever. I think if I had to change one thing about the world, is violence. There is so much violence in the world, children being found raped and murdered in dumpsters, children missing, people being killed. I know this sort of thing has always been around, but it seems like as the time continues to go on, that the world just continues to get crueler. People are so angry, why? You can be driving and get flipped off, it just seems that people are just so angry with themselves and have became way to violent for my taste.

I am the mother to 3 children, and so they pretty much take over the television and the radio. I have two sons, that are nine years old, and seven and they are crazy about Big Time Rush, which secretly I kind of don’t mind them either. If I had to choose a certain type of music that I liked, it would probably be the oldies, like Beatles, Beach Boys, Janis Joplin. It really all depends in the type of mood that I am in. I sometimes like rap, but not when it’s about drugs, if that makes any sense.  There honestly isn’t any music that I dislike.

When I was thirteen years old, my brother had just come back to the United States from being deployed to Korea for a year, but he couldn’t take leave and come home to Texas, instead, he was stationed in Colorado Springs, Colorado. My family missed him dearly, so my Father and I decided to take a trip to go see my brother in Colorado. I honestly didn’t know what I was getting myself into. I had been to Colorado once before, but we flew in an airplane, whereas this time, we drove. My Dad was not the type of person to want to stay in a hotel, he wanted to get the drive over with, so he drove straight through, and only stopped when we needed to use the bathroom, and to get out and stretch. That was the longest trip I had ever been on in my life, totaling 19 hours to drive from Texas to Colorado!

The furthest I have traveled is 3000 miles away from my home. When I spent a summer  in Florida.  I spent the entire summer in Daytona Beach, where my father lived at the time. I went there to experience a summer vacation on my own away from my hometown as a young adult. I had one year of high school left and accepted my dad’s invitation to come spend my entire summer there with him. Many of my closest friends didn’t believe I was going to return. For some reason they thought I would not return to my hometown, that I would enjoy myself so much there that I simply would stay there. Which actually turned out being a choice I did have as one of my greatest summers came to an end.

If I had $1000 to spend on a shopping spree in a store of my choice I would choose to experience my shopping spree at a store called Micheals. It is a store full of crafting supplies of  all kinds. The reason I pick such a store is because I am a mother of a 16 year old girl who is currently involved in learning crocheting. It is a new hobby of hers that she clearly enjoys and is exceptionally good at. She is making miniature items and fashion accessories that she is selling to make cash for herself. I admire her passion and like watching her excitement as she goes out and gets the supplies she needs. As I would also enjoy seeing her have everything she needs to continue her hobby as well as be successful in earning her own money.
