stubborn, ambitious, and unexpected

My self-summary Propose an edit

I don't know what to say about myself. I am just a girl to me. I like to draw and paint sometimes. I have friends from all walks of life and all different ages. I live in a larger city and like small town life much better. I like things simple and beautiful, but deep and thought provoking. I'm complex, but I'm not. I'm a mother of two children. I'm divorced. I like to cook and entertain, but not all the time. I would be good at running a large house, because I am so good at organizing and direction. I don't like disrespect. I'm honest, loyal, and faithful to people. I like to camp, fish, and hike. I'm scared of spiders, snakes, and wild animals sometimes, but not all the time. I can't remember how to clean fish. I don't like hunting, really.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

where I want to be in five years. I also think about what kind of life I want for my children. I also consider how to achieve goals. I can be completely random, though, so I could be thinking about what kind of pickles my daughter likes to eat, why my stupid cameras won't take pictures and be nice to me, homework, shopping, antiques, camping, photography, kitchen utensils I forgot to buy, why I extremely rarely wear hairspray, how good my bed feels in the morning when I have to get up, or why I just can never seem to make a pancake correctly. (And the last is sad, but true, so don't expect pannie cakes, because I suck horribly at making them. I keep trying, though. lol)

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

at home with the kids, because I don't have anyone to watch them.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

is that somehow I have begun to act like a girl. I don't know how this is happening and it's rather scary. To give some examples: I went shoe shopping three times this week and I was excited about it. I painted my toenails today this pinky reddish color and tried to take a picture of them, but my camera swore at me. (Stupid camera.) I wore makeup on Friday for no reason. I never do that unless I am going to work or going out! I spent 35 minutes looking for a shirt because it matched the shoes I bought at the store Friday. lol

You should message me if Propose an edit
