  1. I was hesitant about joining this blog, but, then I saw Duan and checked out her profile, and decided that I might be able to join too? I am 58 and work full time outside the home; I have 4 adult children so I know what you stay-at-home moms are going through: it's a joy but you also probably sometimes feel isolated? In the past 12 months, I have become obsessed with scrapbooking, probably because my first and only grandchild was born in May, 2008. I am now branching out into cards and haven't much of a clue what to do in that area. I have a cricut and am going home to my new Cuttlebug today :0)
    My answers from above?
    1. I love the USA and would probaly escape to the northwest because I have never been there.
    2. I am LDS and I love the simplicity of the Primary (children's) songs, so I sing to myself and feel good.
    3. Where do you live? I live in St. George and you reference to heading "down to Vegas ..." I refer to my town as an island in the desert and I am unhappy here as I consider myself to be a big city girl! I would love to go to San Francisco and spend 2 nights!
    4. My guilty pleasure is spending too much money on my cricut and anything having to do with scrapbooking and now, card making!
    5. During my first marriage, the east coast.
    Now, 6 years into my second marriage, Salt Lake City to visit my husband's family.
    6. The Da Vinci Code; and, I should be getting Dan Brown's new book any day from Amazon.com.
    7. Gone With The Wind
    8. A local escape here in Saint George? Ha!
    9. Refer to #8! We watch a lot of movies and I scrapbook and do other projects, such as a 9 block project with decopauging 9 different times of the year onto the blocks.

    Okay, I've been too verbose... I'll be back!
