About Me	My Secret formula? Lx3= Live, Laugh and Love!!! It took me so long to write this because writing a description of myself is quite difficult. There are so many facets to my makeup that it's easy to overlook some if you don't pay close attention. I'm like that quilt your grandmother made you when you were 8. Sooo warm with pretty and strangely captivating patches. Just when you thought you liked one the best, another one catches your eye. Or, just when you think you saw them all..."where in the lord knows where did that come from?". IDK...I can't do much else, but be myself. You either love me or you don't.

Along that journey, they need to understand our society in the past, present and future and how they fit into the progression of it. Not an easy feat you may say because life is so hard. I could care less about living "the easy life". I want to live MY life. It's the life I was meant to live and I love it in all of its humbling glory. I...(read more)
