I am a 32 year old stay at home mom, wife and full time student earning my Masters degree in Criminal Justice. When I am not tending to the children, my husband or homework I am usually found nose deep in a book whether it be a how-to book or just a regular book I am usually reading. I am not to crafty and actually just took up "crafting" this past November when I found a smashbook on clearance at my local Wal-Mart. Since then I have accumulated 6 different actual smashbooks and made about 20 of my own. But before that it was more or less a just bought things "pre-made" and put them together LOL.
I am a pretty laid back person and don't really have any likes or dis-likes. My husband calls me the Jack of all trades in crafting. One minute I could be working on a smash book and the next I am working on a card for something. Or I am making a "gingerbread" house out of a birdhouse. What can I say I just like making stuff, all sorts of stuff. I have the attention span of a goldfish though, so I tend to get on one craft and think of another and start it before the first one is finished. I always end up going back to craft #1 and finishing it (that is until another thing pop's into my mind)
I am a country girl at heart though I have never actually lived in the south I have a bit of a southern twang at times.
I swear like a trucker/Sailor (Probably because my dad was both) and I make no apologies for swearing, I am technically an adult (at least I try to act like one most of the time) I am a HUGE tomboy (Or at least I like to say I am I am still a bit girly from time to time) My husband is the goofiest person I've ever met other than my 3 children.
