All about Me-The Dana Version

Heather suggested that we all write a little something about ourselves here.  I guess that's a good way to get the ball rolling!

I'm Dana.  :D  (big smile)

I am married to Matt, an anti-social, but lovable guy.  He is 9 years older than me and we first stared hanging out when I gave him a black eye. (yup, there is a story there!)

Today is my son, Connor's birthday.   He is 9 and my daughter is 6.

Even through we are military, we have not moved very often.   We met at the Presidio and spent a while bouncing around separately, only to end up at Hood....for 12 years and 7 deployments, two kids and a lot of memories.

I am a small town girl at heart so I am enjoying Sierra Vista, but I would love to see a Hobby Lobby here!

As for my hobbies and talents, it's easier to list what I've never tried than list what I have.   I am a big fan of trying new things and learning how to do stuff.   Everything from practical, useful skills to the completely useless.....

But I've never learned to cut hair (other than a high and tight), do highlights, or knit.

I never plan on knitting.  I don't have that kind of patience.

Random fact?   I have a disorder that makes it hard to process things and put them in long term memory.   My short term memory tends to have HUGE holes in it....so I forget names, commitments, my wedding day....yeah.  I forget lots of stuff.  That's a big reason why I like taking pictures.   It helps me remember moments.   And I love the Army because everyone wears a name tag.   AWESOME.

I love to read, but never seem to have time.  I watch tv while I work on the computer.  I'm learning to build furniture and......I'm really excited about this project.

I'm hoping to actually have some more face to face contact this week too!
