About

I have recently gotten married and now have a new step-son to start adding to my pages. I started scrapbookin\' the summer of \'03. I have many pages finished but not uploaded. Also recently, my basement flooded and I lost almost all my paper and some alpha stickers. Totally bummed me out but I've already started to replenish my supply. My dh doesn't quite know what to think about it yet (possibly a cult lifestyle, lol) but he'll come around. I love to read mystery book, especially James Patterson. I do not like to work, hate to pay bills, wish I could win the lottery but am enjoying life. (Updated: 05/08/07)

My Birthday is November 3rd.
My Anniversary is December 18th.
