ABOUT ME....SIDETRACKED IN NORTH DAKOTA
Being
side tracked is a way of life for me. Family and friends have no choice
but to accept the fact I am easily and readily side tracked in
everything I do. I have many interests and talents...I have my creative
parents, family members, and friends to thank for that...The side
tracking...well, I am completely sure that is just my ultimate
flaw....not my only flaw, but definitely my biggest flaw.
I was
working as a RN in South Dakota and met my husband....sidetrack to
plans...move to North Dakota 'temporarily'....30 years later here we
are, still in North Dakota..with too many hobbies and belongings to even
consider moving. Along the way I got involved in Scale Miniatures,
joined the National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts. Got interested
in quilting, accumulated lots of fabric. Got interested in beads (they
work good in miniatures and in quilts), acquired lots of beads. Bought
alot of books on the above hobbies as well as supplies. Got interested
in machine embroidery, bought embroidery machine and supplies. I also
like collecting teddy bears (stuffed ones), and dolls....all sizes and
scales.
Love nature...love monarch butterflies ... got interested in
raising them. I have flower beds...but usually the weeds win...I
love bearded iris. Love black bears and watch a den cam every winter
and follow a clan of bears that are in northern Minnesota. Love
cats....live with 4 of them. We feed outside birds and now have a cockateil that joined our crazy household, along with 2 turtles. A real Zoo here.....
Found out that even though you live in the
sticks the UPS and USPO and the internet can bring whatever you need
right to your door !!! I have decided I do not have time for a real job,
I have way too many hobbies. I still have the husband, who puts up with my
obvious OCD and ADHD tendencies, mostly because he is just as easily
sidetracked as I am...we make a good pair...
