Hello. I am a happily married for 31 years! Formerly I have worked in the nursing field and been a teacher's aide, but I have been a housewife and stay-at-home mother of 4 wonderful children for several years now. I decided that being involved full-time in my children's lives was more important than working constantly and hardly ever seeing them. My husband is a bartender and takes good care of me! I have 2 adult sons; the oldest one is getting married in 8 months! I am so excited! The first of our kids to get married! And my future daughter-in-law is wonderful! My second son is single yet and shares my love of cooking! My youngest son is a junior in high school and I have one wonderful daughter who is in 4th grade and has all of her brothers wrapped around her little finger! Out of all my kids, she is the only one who shares my love of reading! I live in Western, Pennsylvania of U.S.A. I love country-living, horses, cooking, baking, crafts, reading (a lot), watching good movies, listening to music, (infact-music is one of my greatest passions besides readng. I usually do both at the same time.), watching my kids play sports, beaches, vacationing with my family, I love dogs and cats, and my favorite color is blue. My kids are my pride and joy. I am a really big Twilight fan. (my kids think I'm nuts-but it gives me something to do) I love anything to do with it. I've read all 4 books atleast 5 times. I like getting onto Twilight fan websites and I really, really love reading fanfics about Twilight. I am typically an "Edward" fan, but I absolutely LOVE "Jasper's" character in the books/movie and also Jackson Rathbon just makes me melt! I have developed an appreciation for movie trailers now and even songs pertaining to Twilight. I prefer rock or alternative-rock music genre's, which mostly include Foo Fighters, KORN, Of Monsters and Men, 30 Seconds to Mars, Nickelback, Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Breaking Benjamin, Shinedown, 3 Days Grace, Linkin Park, Paramore, Muse, Metallica, Skillet, The Fray, Kings of Leon, Hinder, Foster the People, Theory of a Deadman, Howie Day,Train, The Killers, Cage The Elephant and Evenescence. I currently have some health issues I am dealing with, but I remain optimistic. I hope someday to be a Beta-reader. But most importantly I have made some incredible new friends from being an avid reader and being addicted to fan fiction, so I am very glad that I discovered this medium.
