Love to read-particularly mysteries and science fiction/fantasy, but have been known to run out of options and read cereal boxes and the labels on cleaning products.   Like to cook and consider myself a bit of a gourmet-a Food Network junkie who uses my favs for inspiration on how to "kick it up a notch."  Can't sew worth beans, but do knit, crochet, emboider, needlepoint, and can tune up most cars...go figure.   Wish I was thinner, and wish I was wealthier, but then I think most of us do, so that doesn't make me unique.  I am a car nut...the resident motor head of the family, but I find NASCAR boring (once again, go figure)  They haven't made a roller coaster yet that I won't get on.  My son hates them and my daughter is too small for most of the height requirements...my husband gets extreme motion sickness watching a merry-go- round....I would love to learn to fly a plane.  I want to visit Alaska, do a cruise, spend time in Denali, maybe take a domed train car back on the Canadian Rocky Mountain side....but I hate camping, (another go figure)  My idea of roughing it is the Holiday Inn Express-no room service.   I like order and clean clear spaces-my family is genetically programmed on my husband's side to be terminal packrats who could have the dust bunnies carry them off and they wouldn't notice...Love my dogs, love to show my dogs, love to groom the dogs (relaxing activity once you are past the bath and before you get to trimming the claws)  An avid do-it-yourselfer (too poor to be anything else)
