I am not fancy, merely understated. I like to play at creating visual joy, if not for others to enjoy, for my own insatiable desire to test my own ability. Do not be fooled, my talents are not extraordinary. I'm a do-it-yourselfer. The Home Depot was made for me. If I can't find it, I'll just make it. And somehow the thing that I couldn't find at a specific time when I needed it, becomes mass produced and widely available the following year. Where are the video cameras hidden...? I love making stuff, brainstorming ideas, and designing. I'm a party planner, decorator, organizer, rearranger. A little OCD. I like things to look good... but on a budget. My kids think I'm mean because I make them do chores...but awesome at the same time because I make cupcakes at random. And am I lucky enough to be married to my very own 'Toolman' who can fix just about anything, and make just about anything, he puts up with my crazy ideas and is the keeper of my whole heart.
