I love to cook, take pictures, craft, read, spend time with my family, and of course I love my 'puter! I collect McCoy Pottery and state spoons.
My 2 favorite sayings are: "If mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy" and "We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing".
