Hi, married 32 years to Mark, have 4 adult children, and grandbabies. I am a Driving School Owner, and teach Driver Improvement Classes and Certified at teaching Driver Education. I am a Waitress, because I love to have cash on hand. I am an ebay seller, and am opening my own online internet business selling Kamisori Shears. I love reading, get sad when I'm near the end of a good book! Camping is really cool to me as a family, I love all the smells of the campfire and cooking. I have been on a few cruises and LOVE travelling! I intend to do more of it, not less! I live in a cozy log home built by my husband 20 years ago, we are surrounded by woods, and birds and have 2 pet turkeys that just walk all around the house thinking they are the queens of the roost! They don't know they are animals! They are so ugly that they are cute! I appreciate nature and family activities more now that I'm older than when I was young. I see time whizzing by and I cannot get over how fast this year flew by! I tend to get caught up in alot of projects and can't get as much finished as I desire! Currently, I'm enjoying making curtains for our house, something I've never done. I want to be able to make things with my own hands, to leave behind! I can whip up a dinner for company at a moments' notice and have it really good with whatever I have in my kitchen at the time. It's almost a game to me to see what I can come up with! I think I am a very talented cook, but a basic down to earth cook. After 32 years I should be! I opened my first ebay store this past fall, and am learning that I have so much to learn! I have a strong faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and I do believe everything that has happened in my life was allowed or directed by him. I am learning that I do not have to do it all right now.. that some things take time. I'm learning alot about being more compromising, and not so harsh. I know what is worth standing up for or fighting for now that I'm alittle more seasoned, and when to back down because I don't have to be right! (even if I think I am inside). Most of all, I've learned that I can pray for other people to change, but that's now how it works with God, it's YOU who has to change. You can't change others, but you can allow God to change you..and then great and mighty things can happen. But it's not overnight.
