Interests: I love live music, and always have since I was a little girl. This love has blossomed into a bit of a lifestyle for myself and family. My husband and I met at an outdoor concert in 1998 - and my travels to catch outdoor "shows" in the summertime really helped to enhance my love of the outdoors. We travel and camp, attend festivals and concerts together. We always try to find a spot off the beaten path, and rarely end up in a campground. We love to hike, ski, walk dirt roads and have campfires. We are mountain folks, and we walk that talk!
Dreams: I dream of finding peace and contentment. I dream of happy children who are satisfied with a simple life. I dream of finding enough success in my small business to be able to support and sustain our family. I dream of traveling the USA in a camper with my family, enjoying each other and the beauty of our natural surroundings.

Reusable Menstrual Products: I discovered GladRags about 4 years ago. Our family feels strongly about not creating a lot of waste, and not throwing our money away, so it was a change I was ready to make. I felt like the initial investment for the products was a bit heavy, but worth it - and it has been. My original stash of pads is holding up beautifully and I haven't had to spend an additional dime on feminine products since!

Deep Thoughts: Life can be challenging, and you really can't predict the future. The most important thing I have learned is to have a positive outlook and ask for help when you need it. Find people who will listen and support you when times are tough, and then be that person for others when they are in times of need. Family and friends are the most precious possessions you can have, and they should be treated as such.
