Thread: what is your....

Very interesting Shelly. Do you study body language? I saw a programme on it once and did find it very interesting. I loved that TV programme Lie to me - which was about telling if someone was telling a lie through their facial expressions.

Anyway - mine really revolves around animals, I grew up surrounded by them and I love them all but in particular my two dogs who are gun dogs and need a lot of exercise so I walk a lot! I have also done working trials with them and shown them. They have both qualified for Crufts but didn't take it any further.

Also love horses and used to ride a lot when I was younger.We let a local Shire horse breeder use our land now and again. I love Shires - huge animals. Think I must like big animals in general

Love reading and get through a book a week. At the moment I'm reading about the history of Maine coons - for obvious reasons.

My latest pasion is going to be my little boy Simba. It's been a long time since I owned a cat so feel I'm relatively green on this but am very excited.

In short I think I'm one of those sad people that get more from the company of animals than people sometimes.

Missed your post Ria, cos I went on too long. Think you'd get on well with my hubby!! AND he has joined face book!!!!! Are you a good artist - would love to see some of your stuff if you do. Do you draw your cats?

LOL. Oh honestly Karen & Diane, Facebook is like a curse, coz I spend most of my days on my laptop working I get so distracted by it and sometimes never get anything done!

I love art, when I was younger I did a lot of painting etc... but when I had kids I just didnt have enough time really. So I put it to one side. Sometimes I still dabble but its hard to find inspiration when your heart is not in it, I have to be in the 'zone' to produce a good art work. Im not so good at drawing animals Im afraid, though I can draw cartoons of animals. Lol. I sketch a lot, but hardly paint nowadays.

My main interest is the cats and the chickens (we have 3 of them)
internet- what a great place,
sports cars,
crafts/making bead jewellery
reading- bad discipline on this! go off to read a book, find a reason to go on the net and don't come off it!! (also another facebook addict here)

and think that's it

How many children do you have if you don't mind me asking? A good friend of mine had her sixth last year! She is actually addicted to being pregnant I think, God I wanted to stop at two but third kind of just happened - made sure it didn't happen again though and sent hubby off for the you know what!

As for Derren Brown - yes he is amazing - don't sit too near the front when you go! I'd be terrified he would pick on me!

Ria - that's why I won't join face book - I know I would never get off it. It's nice to have something your good at like your drawing - even it its just a hobby and for your own enjoyment. I would love to be able to draw but am completely hopeless I'm afraid.

karene- ive just the 3 for now but being 24 last week its kinda weird tryin to explain myself to ppl my own age lol, they dont see things the way i do yes and number 2 for me was a magnificent suprise lol, my sister says because ive had a baby recently 8mths ago) that she has got too old for me now so have to trade her in for something younger haha!!
i would also like another 2 but im gonna wait a bit lol

You are very young for three children. I didn't start until I was 27! You have plenty of time for a big family then. Your kids must love the cats and your dog. I think it great for kids to grow up amongst animals.

lol oh yeah had first @17, 2 days B4 MY 18TH so yes young and nieve but not regretting any lol..i matured early due to the upbringing i had (diff story al 2gether) pm if ya wana know more but i act silly and immature to give impression, lol lol 24 in yrs old and 37 in my mind and im happy thats all that matters 2 me its good tho cos all my friend are younger ask me advice lol x

As long as you're happy Deeshell.
I have 3 boys, would have loved more, but I don't have kids easy and the 3rd one was a very great risk. but now I don't think I have the patience because I know the boys try mine every single day!
What ages are your kids.... mine are 13, 9 and 8.

My hobbies
I love to read, especially fantasy type stories. My favourite authers are Anne McCaffrey and David Eddings. Loved harry potter and twilight.
I also scrapbook... lots.! I've always done some type of craft and a few years ago I discovered scrapbooking and haven't looked back. It's my addiction... that and taking photographs! lol
