What do you do?: I'm a grade twelve student, who has a part time job as a stock clerk at a department store (in the department dealing with automotive oil, plants and lightbulbs - after nearly two years there I know way more than I really care to on the subjet of the latter)

Hi all!
I'm new to Gaia and the guild. My name is Bobbi and I live in Missouri. I'm a Domestic Engineer and Home Educator. Yeah, all fancy words for housefrau and homeschool mom.
My crafts of choice are jewelry making, crocheting and knitting; but I've also been know to take trash and make it treasure. I love music of just about all kinds. No one sound fits every mood, eh?
I've been married to my Mr. Wonderful for going on 17 years this March.
I'm a nature worshipper (big surprise....product of the 60's and all rolleyes ), and still can see the world through the eyes of a child.
I don't see the glass as half full. I don't see the glass as half empty. I see, "Sweet! Someone got me a bigger glass!" wink
Well, that's me in a tiny nutshell. I look forward to sharin' crafty ideas and chattin' with ya all!
