one best friend to whom i have been married for the past twelve years. one eight year old daughter who is my life. one cat who loves to play fetch (freak). one dog who makes me nuts, but is too adorable to not love. extended family is in texas and california.

i feel most creative in the middle of the night. listening to music or watching old movies is what i'm doing when i'm scrapping. i love finding new music and am obsessed with bbc's radio1.

too many to list! i'm a shopaholic. i love houndstooth everything and polka dot everything and woodgrain everything. i am nutbags about american crafts (i have a thickers addiction!) and hambly and prima lollipops and sassafras lass.

pink, black, turquoise, lime green, yellow.

it's the perfect outlet for me that not only gets the creative itch scratched, but also feels productive because i'm using all those pics i just *had to* take. life is about the details.

something by frank sinatra. or maroon 5. heh. i love music. all kinds.

"Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, not small, but valuable. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around?" - Meg Ryan in "You've Got Mail"
