About me
I'm first and foremost a grandma with lots of grandchildren and children too. I have so many different things that I would call my favorite things to do. I love crafts and reading David Baldacci mystery books and my soap opera ONE LIFE TO LIVE that I've watched since I was 15. I like to watch Lost and Desperate housewives. Summer time is all repeats though. I love our garden and we have lots of things planted. Corn, zuchinni, kolorabi, radishes, spinach, tomatos, all kinds of peppers, garlic, lettuce. This will be our first year to can so it will be a new experience for me. Let's hope I don't mess it up. I belong to a CITIZENS EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM and I've been trained to help people in emergency situations. I've learned how to use a fire extinquisher (which I didn't know how to do before my classes) I can put out fires and I know some medical to help if we are called out. We have had training in triage and in traffic control. It's really a nice volunteer group we've learned how to turn off the gas, electric and water if it is necessary. These things come in handy during an emergency. California has a nice CERT team. I collect stamps so that I can make holiday cards and birthday cards and I love going to garage sales. I find a lot of nice things for my little ones. Some days are better than others but we really find some good deals. I also like ebay. Sometimes I sell things and sometimes I buy things. We have beautiful flowers planted in hanging baskets all around the patio. I even have two strawberry plants this year and there is a strawberry on one of the plants already. When we bought the strawberries there was a note to plant sage by them so I bought a sage plant even though I don't like sage. My pink flowers are a vibrant pink and they are so beautiful. Of course pink is my favorite color. I do love all the colors we have this year. White, purple, orange, yellow, red. They are all so pretty. I would like to get a blue flower but we shall see. I also write poetry and have had some poems published. I like to write about nature.
