I have no clue how to do this...

But it seems everyone else is doing it...So I cave into following the crowd.  I'm not quite sure exactly what the difference between posting in a thread on a board and this blog thing is.  So, what exactly is this?  A diary, a journal, a place to vent? 

I think that I will consider this a journal that people might critique.  Hopefully I will not piss off too many people, and give most a good laugh.

So I guess I should begin with a little about myself.  Obviously I am engaged or I wouldn't be knotting.  He is the most wonderful man I have ever met.  I am very lucky to have a man like him come into my life. 

I am 38, my birthday is Jan 27.  I have auburn hair and blue-green eyes.  I am 5'5", and too damn fat to admit my weight! LOL  but I am a happy plus size girl..then again someone once told me fat people are jolly.  I don't believe I am fat.  I am voluptuous, and love my curves, just not all of my curves LOL.  Then again, we are our own worst critics.

I have been married once before, and have no human children.  I do have 2 four legged children, a 7 yr old son named Mojo, he is a English Mastiff/Black Shephard mix, and a 6yr old daughter named Angel.  She is a Bullmastiff/Boxer mix.  They are probably more spoiled than a human child would be.

For work, I manage a campground/resort full time and drive tow truck part time.  I really enjoy working the tow truck, it's alot of fun, though at times very hard and frustrating.  Yet, it is such a wonderful feeling to help others during a time of need.  I honestly could care less about my desk job, it pays the rent.  I love being out on the road.  I love the thrill and the rush of working an accident, of winching a car up a cliff, just the knowledge that I can do it, and just as good as any man out there.

I live in Northern California, up in the Redwoods, yet close to the Pacific ocean.  It is beautiful country up here.  I enjoy the peacefulness and the clean air.  I love to go hiking (I live on 28 acres in the mountains), camping, off roading, and all the tomboy stuff.  Every once in awhile I miss the city...Sometimes I miss dressing up.  I have to drive 120 miles to the nearest mall to buy my make-up.  I have become quite the online shopper.

My hobbies include wedding planning, ebay shopping, digital art, medeival/vampire RPG, and knotting.

Okay...So I guess that's all I can think of right now off the top of my head.  Did I do this right?  Or have I made myself look like a blundering idiot? LOL!
