About Me
- About Me: I'm older than dirt, free-spirited, eclectic, sometimes cranky and opinionated, and I love doing art. I'm just a simple woman living a very complicated life ..... my soul purpose for existing is to serve as a reminder to those I encounter that sometimes life is more fun if you stand on your head. I am who I am: a mom, a grandmother, an artist, a Hospice care provider, and a loyal friend. That's all you need to know for now. Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way & frankly, some of the roads I've traveled weren't paved.
