A little introduction! My name is Angela - I live in the heart of Oregon with my four cats, two wienerdogs and my hubby Josh. Don't get me started about Oregon, I will never stop. I love it here and I don't see leaving anytime soon. There was a scare a while back about a possible move to AZ, but since they fired me (oh I'm sorry let me re-phrase that... released me from my duties because they already have someone to absorb my position on site in AZ... Thanks - I feel relieved already) I don't think they want me showing up for work there.

I have never been without a job... well at least since I was nine. My father used to use me as cheap labor coloring in the drawings on the packaging for his stereo cables. (Here is a fun game, if your DH or Dad knows anything about stereos ask if they know the name Cardas, they might be impressed that you do...) I also used to hammer in grommets into the packaging so it could hang - great practice for modern day eyelets I would say.

I am a scrapbooker, a hooker and a quilter. Get your mind out of the gutter. I hook RUGS - the old fashioned way too, not Latch hooking. I am the youngest of the women I "hook" with by about half... and yes they giggle at every reference to being a "hooker" too, so its ok if you do too.

I'm messy, not dirty. Forgetful, but not flighty. Nice, not flirty. Real, not a schmoozer.

Right on.
