Mimosagirl

Married for 34 years and homeschool mom of 4. Only one left at home and he's 11 years old. Life is what we make it I always say. So I try to look for the beauty in even the simplest of things like spider webs with dew drops clinging to them, budding trees in Spring and bird nests in the cedars. We live on a small farm. Are you curious: MIMOSAGIRL?..well, it was difficult to find an id not already in use and had been talking to another swapbotter about a big mimosa tree my son had planted for me years ago and that is how the id came about.

All types of music are interesting to me. I was a teenager in the 80s-90s so I'm fond of pop/rock from that era. I also enjoy relaxation instrumental background music.

True Stories about history, I have all the Boxcar Children books and Hardy Boys, Stories about life during 1940's world wide, Survival Books, Gardening, Stamp collecting, Herbal, and puzzle books especially Circle a word :) I have enjoyed reading many of Barbara Kingsolver books.
