ABOUT ME
Introduction
I am married to a wonderful man. We have been together for 11 years and married 9. He is an awesome stand up kind of guy. He works hard but still comes home after a long day and spends time
with his family. We were definitely meant to be together. We make each other laugh and are really on the same level when it comes to making decisions on how we feel about life and raising our
children.
I used to work in advertising and quit when my first son was born so I could stay at home to raise him. I guess you could say my occupation now is "Domestic Goddess" LOL! I have two sons. Ryan
is the oldest and Cameron is the youngest. Anyway, I love my kids very much and I am really happy that I am afforded the luxury of staying at home to care for them and be here when they need
me. As they get older I foresee myself becoming more active with their school and sports. I feel it is very important for children to have a lot of supervision and structure to help guide them.
I didn't really have that growing up and lord knows I got into my fair share of trouble, lol.
Budman is my hubby, he works alot so doesn't have as much time to get online, but he does check his messages, so make sure you throw some love his way too.
Favorite driver is you guessed it... Dale Jr. We also really like Stewart, Harvick, Kenseth, Kahne and of course Truex.
Glad to be here and being able to make all the friends I have who enjoy racing just as much as I do.Hope you enjoy my page and give me a shout out if ya' feel like it. I am always up for making
more Nascar friends!

I was diagnosed with Stage 3, Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Breast Cancer with Comedo in August of 2007. I have since had a lumpectomy to remove the tumors and also a Sentinel Node Biopsy to test
the lymph nodes for lymphatic invasion. 17 out of 33 nodes were infected. I have also had a PET/CT scan and the cancer has not spread to any of my other organs.
I started chemo at the beginning of October and went through 6 months of being sick and dealing with all that goes along with that. I will continue with the Herceptin once a week until January
of 2009. I begin radiation treatments the middle of April and will go for about 6 weeks every day Monday through Friday. I will constantly go for testing to make sure that the cancer is not
coming back and that I stay in remission. Keep your fingers crossed, I canno't imagine having to go through all of this again, but if it means I will stay alive.. then that is what I have to
do!!!
This has been a really tough time for me and my family but I know I can beat this and many thanks to all of my friends who have shown their support as this has helped me through my darkest
hours. I have posted on the forums here on IP and also have started a blog on my Myspace page. If you would like to keep up with me you can read my story there. My Myspace link is listed below.
I am trying comment as many of you as I can when I get the time, but with two young boys and all the crazyness of doctor's appointments and so on... I will do my best. Please don't be offended
if I cannot get back to you right away and know that me and my family appreciate everything everyone is doing to keep my spirits up.. you guys are all just awesome and I love you very
much!!!
Do you enjoy making your own graphics or do you want to learn how? Even if you have never used Paint Shop Pro before, this is the place for you. We like to share and teach others. You must be
18 years or older to join since some of the tutorials and tubes are adult oriented. We have the resources and members to help you learn. We also run a chat group on Wednesday and Saturday
nights where we meet to share and get to know other members. Chat is not required to join. Required minimum of 2 sends per week. Can be anything! So if you would like to join a friendly group
of people who are also addicted to PSP or want to learn how at your own pace, come and join us!

My hobbies
Watching NASCAR, collecting Dale Jr. stuff, collecting Boyds Bears and Scrapbooking.
I guess you could also say that one of my hobbies is chatting with all the new friends I have made on both MySpace and Infield Parking. I don't know if you would consider that a hobby, but in my
world it is... LOL!
