About Me

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. In my free time I play seriously with tiles, glass, paint, fabric and beads, sometimes all at the same time.

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, most of the roads I've traveled weren't paved.
