ABOUT ME and OTHER THINGS!!

I didn't have too much to post, so I thought I would do a post about me. So here it goes.

I am originally from Pascagoula, MS. October 7, 1968 to Jim and Linda Epting. Lived in only two house, one on River Road and the other on Westwood. The house on River Road was right across from the Pascagoula river. We would go crabbing all the time. I loved that house. We moved to the one on Westwood when I was in second grade. I lived there until I moved to Jackson in 1989. Mother and Dad have sold it due to the storm and they live up in the country now. They live in my grandparents house, my father's parents. I don't like going back there that much anymore, just not home anymore. Don't get me wrong I loving going to visit Mother and Dad, it is just kind of weird because it is a different set of memories that I hold at the "FARM HOUSE". I still can see my grandfather stand waving to us as we are driving up the drive way and then my grandmother hollering it is time for lunch better come now while it is still hot. Plus, going horse back riding every chance we had and picking cherries from the cherry tree.

I am the baby of the family. I have two older sisters one that lives in Oxford, MS and the other that lives in Monroe, LA.

When I was younger I loved to go sailing. I would take sailing lessons every summer and just loved it. That and tennis. I went home at Easter and was looking through some of my old stuff and came across a calender. I forget what the year was, but I had to laugh, because I think by the time school was out for the summer until it started it in fall I was either sailing or playing in a tennis tournament. Kind of funny how things change, you could not catch me on a small sail boat if it was the last thing on this earth to do. A big boat yes, but not a small one...

Being from the coast, you all might laugh at this, but I have never been on a shrimp boat before. When I met Kyle he would call me shrimp picker. I have tried to tell him that I have never been on a shrimp boat before and I don't think he believes me to this day. My oldest sister dated a guy and they would go out the shrimp boats all the time. She said it was always so neat to see what the nets would bring in.

I don't like to drive. I will drive of course because I have too, but I don't like to drive if I don't have to.

I love to sew. I wish I had more time to do it though. I have some cute fabric to make Mamie and Nolan some things. I just don't seem to find the time to sit down and do it. Maybe this week coming up.

I love to take pictures. This is something that in the last couple of years I have really loved to do. Again, time!!!! I wish I had time to go out and do it. What I should do is take one weekend and do things that I like to do, but the sad part is if that happens then the things that need to be done wouldn't get done........

I love to cook. In my next house I will look for a very big kitchen on the floor plans. You can only fit about 4 people in mine right now.

I have kept in touch with two of my best friends. We have been friends since the 7th grade. We have been in each others weddings, kept up with each other through the years, cried on the phone to one another and just been there when you need your friends. I have made tons of girls friends while living in Jackson and I will hopefully be friend with them until the day I die as well.

My parents are only children. I am sure you all wanted to know that.......

My oldest sister has a son with blond hair and blue eyes. My middle sister has a little girl with blond hair and blue eyes and I have a little girl that has blond hair and blue eyes. Weird thing is they all HAD curly, curly hair when they were younger. Now their hair is straight. Of course I can't live out Nolan, he has brown hair and big brown eyes.

I picked my little girls name out when I was in junior high and I dared anyone to use it. She as many of you know is named after my grandmother. God rest her soul.

I don't like bad weather. When I hear that we might have bad weather, I get all stressed out. I don't know if others can see it in me, but I really get stressed about it.

I was in a very bad car wreak years ago and still have nightmares about it.

I love being a mother, a wife, a sister and a friend.

I like to garden. I am not that good at it, but I like to do it.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE so good seafood and of course crawfish. I could eat crawfish until I am blue in the face. I have tried to do that before and couldn't sleep because I was so full from eating go much.

I met Kyle in Divorce Court. Ha, Ha. I was working at Hinds County Chancery Court and he was in Law School........

I could go on, but I have to stop now and shut my eyes. How boring is this post?

OH TO ALL YOU MOTHERS THAT READ THIS: HOPE EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL MOTHER'S DAY SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!
