Hi! As a kid I always liked doing lots of different stuff. Well, not much has changed!
One of the main things I am now doing is making teddy bears and selling them on the internet. The bears are actually for adults who collect bears ~ they are not safe as toys. I started selling them on Ebay and eventually learned how to make my own website.
I now sell them on both my site and on Ebay. My bears have homes all over the US... and also in the United Kingdom and Australia! Click on the bear to the right to see a slide show of my bears. If you'd like to visit my teddy bear site ~ just click on the icon below:
I love making my teddy bears of course, but I also enjoy collecting them!
I love to read - although I have less time now. I usually read mysteries! I love "The Cat Who..." mysteries series by Lillian Jackson Braun. My NEW favorite mystery series is the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich (One for the Money,....) Thanks to Mom for turning me onto her! I've even got Jen hooked on these!
Although I haven't done a lot of it lately... I still love photography! I'll get some photography up here on the site eventually. I've been learning more and more about my Adobe Photoshop Elements program too which is fun. Last Christmas Bob got me a photo quality printer for the computer... it's so awesome!
I also keep busy by selling things on Ebay! If we haven't used it in a year (sometimes less time) then it goes on Ebay! With no basement - we just don't have room to keep stuff we don't use. It's a great way to help pay for the new hobbies and stuff too.,
I like to create web pages! I do all the HTML coding by hand. I learned from several online sources (to be listed later!) I didn't want anything very fancy.... just some basics. This site is a bit behind in being updated... I enjoy doing too many different things to spend too much time on my web pages!
I LOVE seasonal decorating! One of my favorite things to do is to go to my best friend Nancy's house to get ideas from her. She has a marvelous eye and talent for putting things "just so". I do tend to be a little more sparse in my decorating... or looking for things that do "double duty". We don't have lots of storage left for things that are just up for a little while :)
