I'm really interested in staying active and love the outdoors while accomplishing that goal. Most outdoor activities are things that I would love to try if I haven't already. I'm willing to try a lot of different things. White water rafting was particularly exhilarating the summer before last. I'd do it again in a heart beat. Animals are another love of mine. I have 3 cats, so if you have a problem there, maybe you should just click past my profile. Dogs and I are great friends. I've also had birds, fish, a pot bellied pig and a few other animals too. I must say that painting is something that I LOVE to do. For seven years, I made my living at selling my work at street art shows...have been in numerous nationally ranked shows all over the country. Someday, I'll get back into that part of my life. Right now, nursing is a better option and I have a full time job working as a hospice nurse. My patients are truly wonderful and have taught me a LOT about how to live!
