Just an average person with the same hopes and desires that anyone else has and just likes to be understood and truly appreciated for who I am.

I put down my camera for a while but am eager to get back into taking pictures and learning how to really use my camera in other than automatic

mode. Im a jewelry designer and make my own jewelry. I also do lots and I do mean lots of other crafts-i.e. sewing, beading, using my Cricut to make all sorts

of things, painting, coloring, soap making, etc! I love creating and think it is the one thing that will keep you young and interesting! Carpe diem!

I am retired now from my job as a teacher's assistant at an elementary school, having been forced out of my job which I loved intensely but all good things must come to an

end sometime and so the universe was telling me it was time to go. I am doing well and keeping busy and love my life.

I love to read, make jewelry and design anything on the computer. I am married with two grown children and three grand children-one of whom I consider to be a son

since I raised him from a teenager to be a fine and loving young man. I love all my children and grand children and they are doing well!

Please keep your comments nice. Im not a rude person and would never say anything rude about your photos. Constructive criticism is entirely welcomed as well.

I have recently decided to get back into photography since I left it a while ago - not sure why but having seen a you tube post by Aaron Nace I have realized that

I was stuck and too many people said my work was so good that I thought I was at the end of my journey but instead I have only started!! So onward to getting back

into taking pictures and re learning to love photography!

I like to take pictures of anything and everything that interests me.

Sometimes it makes sense only to me...

p.s. In the light of those who add me so that I can see their sexually explicit pics, please don't bother. If I want to view porn I'd rather choose my images myself. I will block you, no offense intended to you, I just don't want to see it. Comprende?
