OK...here it goes.
I am: (in random order)
a songwriter,
a sister,
a Christian,
a daughter,
a singer,
an optimist,
a guitar player,
a team player,
a country girl,
a thrill seeker,
a talker,
a scuba diver,
a music minister,
a totally random girl and
a sweetheart (most of the time).
I am not:
a mean person,
a liar,
a pessimist,
a selfish person,
a fan of any of the previously mentioned things,
a picky eater,
a snob,
a natural athelete or
a "cool" chick (well cool in my own way I think...but I'm a dork, really).
And if I'm being honest...I am probably some of those not so great things every once in a while. I am a sinner. I mess up. I try to learn something from all of my mistakes and all of my heartbreaks. I really love to write. Writing it means it doesn't have to be inside me anymore...and good or bad...that's always a blessing. I love my church family. I love my Church. I love my God above all things. He really outdoes Himself sometimes. He has a wonderful plan for my life, and right now I'm learning to listen very closely. Anywho. I released my first album this last spring. It's called "Right Here" and I want you to have it. You can get a copy of it right here (ha...that's funny). Just click the link that says "buy the CD now!" You'll go directly to CDbaby...any they'll ship it directly to you. I hope you like what gets posted here. If you like it, please tell me. You have no idea what a difference it makes. Thank you so much for your support!!
