As some of you know I make/sell chain maille jewelry. Here is a sample of what I can do...
About me: I am a 24 year old mother of two. My husband and I will celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary in August. I am a chain mail inspired jewelry maker, crafter, and now a writer. I am currently taking classes at the Institute of Children's Literature and love it!
I worked as a temp for five years until I landed a full time job as a data entry person an Scholastics. I worked there for 1 1/2 years and then had to quit or be fired. For a publisher of children's books the company is not family friendly at all. They would penalize me anytime I had to miss even if my kids were sick and I had a note from thier doctor!
I also quit because my husband got a small raise in pay. Another reason was my daycare bill, yikes! My wallet groans just thinking about it! I was bringing home around $800 and daycare for my two kids was over $1,000 a month!
Staying at home is fun but a lot more pysically demanding. At work I sat on my butt all day. At home, I do housework and take care of the kids. Just thinking of all the lifting makes my back hurt, lol.
I'll add more info later but for now I am just putting in a little as it is late and I need sleep.
What is your element? [with pictures & detailed answeres]
Your element is Wind. You are the guy/girl that is unpredictable. No one knows what you're going to do next and what you're in the mood for. Studying is not your thing and you would rather go to a party than stay home. Life is just for fun and you need to be free to live according to you. You waste no time on lies, if you feel or think one thing you say it even if it hurts. Of course, people may be quite upset but that doesn't really bother you. It's not that you don't care, because you do, but in these situations it's a waste of time. You live up in the clouds and are quite a dreamer about life. People often consider you beautiful, but harsh and they would think twice before getting to know you. But once they do, they'll learn that you are always willing to take yourself and your friends on adventures. Never will it be a boring time with you and your friends appreciate that. You are not often seen sad, but you have your times. If someone has been mean to you, you can quite easily trash-talk them for betraying you. Nevertheless, you are most of the time a good spirit who just want to have some fun. Take this quiz!
I'm an aqaurius and proud of it!
I wish I had a body like this one!
Sometimes you just have to "go goth" and escape reality.
Who I'd like to meet: People who will be loyal friends and not fake, high school-ish, drama queens/kings, or flakes. I appriciate people who are creative and friendly. I love to chat and like to meet others who have stuff to say too. More later...
And now for somethings completely different, lol.
Ever feel like dancing??? I can't dance but I like to anyway especially if a good friend is willing to look silly with me!!!
Here is some good dancing music: Don't Let The Rain Fall
If I could only be an anime character and hadn't cut my hair like a dumb ass!!! Oh well, I was able to donate 16 inches to Locks of Love. It is the thought that counts right? Or was I actually temporarily insain???
The following video is a really well done Sailor Saturn music video, enjoy!
Here is another Sailor Moon video and it was really well done too.
