Hi..I live in Las Vegas..great city if you stay off the strip!! LOL! I've been married for over 30 years, have 3 children, a son, Sean, 30 and two daughters, Andrea, 28 and Destinee, 12. I also have 2 grandsons, Mason Douglas & Charles Keith and a granddaughter, Emma Rose who was born in May. One cat, Gary rounds out my family at home. I love my family, scrapbooking, reading, gardening, the internet, cooking and my job...in that order. I am a Business Services Administrator for a landscape supply company...(fancy name my boss calls me to say I am in charge of everything).

I love all types of music, mostly rock from 60's to present day, some country, classical and Christmas..any version of Carol of the Bells is awesome! My son burned me a cd with over 20 different versions on it. Adam Lambert from American Idol has got a killer voice that I love to listen to also. My 12 yr old has got me liking some techno stuff, but her "Screamo" I can do without!! LOL!

I love to read! I read cookbooks for fun, scrapbook magazines, Taste of Home mag is wonderful. The Twilight series was really awesome. I've recently picked up alot of Jackie Collins books and I'm always up for a good historical romance.

I like happy movies...Very favorite is Wizard of Oz or the Long Long Trailer with Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz...(a relatively unknown but VERY cute movie if you Love Lucy!!) I can watch Disney classic cartoons over and over even though the kids have outgrown them now!

I like reality shows, Two and a Half Men, King of Queens, all the CSI's, & I still watch Young and the Restless and Bold & the Beautiful one day week when I'm off work...really enough to keep up with what's going on!! I don't have cable tv, but if I did it would have to stay on the Food Network!

I enjoy scrapbooking tremendously and now that I have joined Swap-Bot there are several other things I want to try my hand at like Dotee Dolls, ATC's, inchies and Button Fairies...now just to find the time!!
