Hi There! I guess I should start off by telling you some stuff about me. So, here ya go.
I chose the ID crazyglue for no single reason in the world. I was thinking that I needed some to fix a cup handle. It worked. I like it.
I live in mid missouri on a small piece of land. Have two kiddies 7 & 11~yes thats their names, they were conceived in vegas after a VERY good night
I've been married for 13 years this coming january. To the same man no less.
I like the Sims, banana pudding with wafers, waterballoons, and diet coke.
I collect birdhouses (fake ones) and teapots (fake again).
I think its easier to smile and speak politely than to get upset and yell. I know that most times you'll get alot farther if you use the first idea.
Change is good, but dollars are better.
Ok, so 7 & 11 aren't my daughters names. But, Kelly is the 7 year old and is adamant that she's the Queen. =) And Sarah is 11, but is going on 17. Gotta love those preteen years.. blech. Oh yeah, They share the same birthday.

How I Rate, My Web Of Trust, Comments
You know~~Epinions HoopDeDoo
Ratings~I always try to rate fairly, no matter what the topic. I am there to read your opinion, so I try very hard to keep my thoughts and feelings out of it.
If the review is on a product or service, I sincerely rate on how helpful your review has been to me. If i'm reading a review that I myself would have no use for, I read it as if I'm a person that needs a product like that.
I will only lowrate if there isn't enough subject material to adequately describe the product or if its very offensive. Spelling errors usually don't lower my decision.
Every now and then though, if a review is on a touchy topic based on someone's personal opinion, and I don't agree, I have a tough time rating. So most generally, I will leave a polite comment and explain that I didn't rate this review and my opinion differs. My thoughts on this is, if you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all. And everyone is entitled to their own epinion. Besides...you still got my penny!:)
Comments
I really don't leave alot of comments. I will if I really found a review very funny, very touching, or very helpful. Or if I disagree. Otherwise, I just stand behind my rating. And I expect the same from you. I enjoy reading your thoughts, and if you enjoyed or disagreed with something I wrote, leave me one if you want! :)
My Web Of Trust
When I first started with Epinions, I wasn't sure who to add to my WOT. How do you make that decision? For some its very easy. Just add every writer they come across. I couldn't do that though.
I add someone after I've read through several of their reviews. If they review things that are interesting to me, I add them to my WOT. It's not because most everyone that writes for Epinions isn't a good writer, its because these people are writing things that are of super interest to me. :)
My Way Of Saying Thanks For Reading My Review
What I try to do, is go through my reviews after a day or so and read a review or two of writers I've never read or seldom come across. I'm not always 100% on top of this, because sometimes I just have to much to do. But in my free time, I try to go back a week or so and do that. For those I see around quite often, I pretty much check into your reviews weekly anyhow. :)
Gotta Give Thanks Where Its Due!
I couldn't have put this page together without the help of Drdad's review on how to do it. Bret is one of Epinions biggest assets.
And Lee Shurie has put together a great site to host your pictures for epinions. Very easy to navigate and understand!
I love to get graphics from Country Lane Graphics. Her place is the best if you like using country backgrounds and graphics for webpages or scrapbooks.
THANK YOU ALL!
