My husband and I just celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary last month. I am married with 3 boys (Joseph will be 26; Daniel will be 22 and Christian will be 20) who are all grown up. They keep me on my toes. I love cooking, baking, reading, crafting, planning, and spending time with family and friends. I would love to do some traveling but the first I would like to plan our honeymoon (we did not take one) to Jamaica. I also love sending cards and letters to my family and friends so that they know that they are cared about.

I love almost all types of music except some rap; just cannot get my mind around some of the lyrics. But I always have some type of music playing in my house; drives my husband crazy sometimes. My husband has sirrius xm; so I can play all types of music. I always have some type of music playing when I am on my computer; helps relax me and I do not like not having it on.

I love to read anything that I can get my hands on. I loved reading Harry Potter (have all of the books), Lord of the Rings, anything by Jane Austin, Beverly Lewis, Nicholas Sparks and lots of others. Right now, I am trying to figure out what book to read next.

This will be a long list of movies that I like if I listed them all: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, anything romance, anything Christmas, anything with Tom Cruise, anything Hallmark Channel. I watch all kinds of movies; try to stay away from horror movies so that I don't have nightmares.

I love watching television but without cable that has become something that I cannot do right now. So, I watch a lot of Netflix. I also have a streaming site that I watch things on but I does not have everything on it; I can usually catch things the next day after they are shown on tv. I just cannot wait for my shows to come back on; most of them are on local channels.

I am beginning to rediscover my love of doing crafts. I used to make crafts with my children when they were little. But they unfortunately grew up. I like to make ornaments for people at Christmas. I used to make stockings for my children when they were little; new one every year. Now, I am into scrapbooking and trying to figure out what a FaithDex is so that I can make some.

I like lots of things: reading; baking; singing; crafting; painting with my husband; volunteering in my community; watching sports; most of them; stickers; washi tape; paper/envelopes; holidays; Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

What I dislike: politics; pushy people; nasty people; mannerless people; dirty items; snakes; and people who do not care about others' opinons.

My goals for 2021 are to read the Bible in a year; send more cards and letters to people; do more crafts; take care of myself better; and say 'no' often than 'yes'.
