I am a doll maker and pug lover. I make cloth dolls. My very favorite thing is to paint these dolls and I even teach how to paint them. I am a pug lover. I have 2 pugs, Ivan and Pumba. Ivan is my baby, I've had him since he is tiny. He is also epileptic and is on meds for that. Pumba is my old man. He's about 11 and has been blind since he was 2 from degenerative retina disease. I have had him since he was 4.. I have 2 kids, Melissa and Ian. Mel is 22 and lives in Edmonds. She has a serious steady, Ryan. Mel and Ryan are going to get married in June.  They have a son, my first Grandson, Gavin Andrew. His birthday is March 21. He's brand new!! Ian is 15 and is in High School. He is a great kid. I'm watching him turn into a young man right in front of my eyes!  He's learning to drive..I work for a Farmers Insurance District Manager as his Office Manager.  Its a job. :) Mostly I like to think of myself as an artist and my dolls are my expressions of the world around me and inside of me. I have some great online friends that I've known for years. And I love Egypt and Rome and watch anything I can about it on History International. I love T.A.P.S. and subscribe to their podcast and blog. I'm computer savvy. An all about nerd....
