I am a crafty person who enjoys designing counted cross stitch, crochet items of all types and various other crafts (plastic lacing, macrame, origami, plastic canvas, etc.). I've raised 4 children and have one grandson I adore. I have 2 large Standard Poodles (45 lbs and 100 lbs.), a pitbull, and a 3 lb. poodle of my mother's. I work as a full-time Youth Service worker by night (3rd shift) and a part-time medical record technician by day for a nursing home/care center.
