I am not crazy . . .

If you're curious my favorite color is green but really I love all colors equally. I love to stay up late but will wake up early every time (sleep is for when you’re dead). My favorite number is 3, one reason because I believe in giving everyone 3 chances after that it’s as they say: "Three Strikes and You're Out".

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not perfect, that my life's a wreck, and the only thing holding me up is the hope that it'll get better.

I was born in Chicago moved to Indiana when I was little. I have been to Alabama, Kentucky, Iowa, Ohio and Wisconsin. I have never been on an airplane (not because I am afraid, I just never have been). I love road trips, music, and good food. I’ve never been to a concert, unless you count my kids school concerts.

I take “pinky promises” serious, promises are important to me. I sometimes expect more from others, because I would be willing to do that much for them.

To me it’s the thought that counts; not how much you spend. I find beauty in all things, and even in my darkest hour I will shine through.

I don’t judge people because I don’t want to be judged. At times I can be a bit of a smartass, sarcastic, cocky  which gets me in trouble sometimes because people misunderstand me.

For the most part I feel I am a beautiful person inside and out. I Love the thought of being in love even thou in my life experiences I have not been truly loved (besides my kids). I will find any excuse to have a cup of coffee, to me coffee means: love, sharing and connection, being able to sit & listen to others, it makes me happy.

I love to dance in the rain barefoot, any chance to act like a kid I will take. As Mark Twain once said, “Age is mostly a matter of mind. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.”

Sometimes when I look in the mirror I will laugh at myself and make funny faces. Life is too short, so laugh even if you have nothing to laugh about, you will be amazed how much it will bring energy and life to your weary, frustrating day. I believe the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all has the potential to turn a life around. For those who know me, know I mean no harm.

I would go on but I am sure you are tired of reading already:-P If you want to know more feel free to ask, I may just share more with you.
