"Straight From The Heart..."
Welcome to my personal webpage. Alot of people ask why I, or anyone,
would make such a page. Who would go look? Who might be interested in what I
have to say? Who cares about my family? My interests? My goals? Well that's
a very good question, that I am happy to answer. I will warn you though.
This is only MY opinion, and NOT the opinion of the general population of
personal webpage designers. So please take my opions with a grain of salt.
When I started out on the internet, almost 3 years ago, I was so excitedly invited to many a personal webpage. At first I thought these were fantastic ideas from fantastic people and I wanted a part in that. So up went my first webpage ever. Hours of reading through detailed angelfire instruction, and still not knowing what on earth I was doing, piece by piece there became "Goldi's Locks". A page which I was proud of. A page I was ready to show-off along with all the other people on the net. Well the joke was on me. It wasn't about who I was, or what I cared about. It wasn't about people getting to know the real me. Not Goldi of grammas, not SnoWyte of CE, nor Goldilocks from wcool. The one born as Michelle. Mother of three children. Wife to John. The girl with the great smile who loves people. Naivety is a fault that only I can take blame for, but to think that I was so wrong.
Instead, it was all about how many graphics I used. How pretty, or pretty ugly depending on who you talk to, I was. It was about how cool my background was, were my images self made or simply uploaded. It was about how cute my kids were. How many people visited my page, and how many took the time to sign my book. I learned something very valuable during all of this. That no matter what my page was about, nor how many people came to see it, that I had fun in making it come alive. That every hour spent on finding graphics I liked, and getting the colours right on my titles, and uploading each picture that I cherish, was so rewarding, that if I was the only person to ever see it, that it would still make me smile. So here I am, writing once more on my new site. For my other, (most would say original), nick. SnoWyte.
I will assume that since you are here, that you are one of the few who want to know these things about me. I will also assume that you will take the two minutes time out of your busy schedule to sign my book in respect for the time and effort put into this page. I don't ask that you like my site, nor ask that you visit frequently, although if you don't manage to see each page on this site, I do suggest you bookmark it for a time when you have nothing better to do. I may surprise you with something you actually enjoy, instead of just doing me a favour. (really...I hear it's possible...lol) All I hope is that this site can bring a smile to your face as it does to mine. If I can accomplish nothing else from this site, I would be a very happy person.
Now where to start? Or should I say finish? I've been so busy rambling on that I haven't even begun to tell you anything about me. Well as most of you already know, I'm a 26 year old Canadian living in Ontario with my husband of almost 7 years and my 3 children. My life is here at home with my kids and my pets. It may not sound like much to some of you workaholics out there, but it's mine, and I'm proud of it. The kids keep me going, and the pets keep me running, and the work is neverending. Thank God for the helpful hubby. (Yes, he cooks, cleans, and scrubs the toilets!) ~ducking from all the jealous women~ LOL Yeah yeah, I know...the pampered princess as MrsThang has been known to say. I must admit I have it pretty easy as far as hubbies go. What can I say? He loves me. :-P
Now to the hobby section. Well I'll make this quick. I wouldn't want you to fall asleep on me. Well actually...m or f???? hehehe Just teasing. Reading...I LOVE to read. I read anything I can get my hands on. I favour mystery/sci-fi and I have a soft spot for legal drama. If I don't have a book to read I can get pretty nasty. I also love ceramics and drawing, although I don't have the time or the money to take it up seriously. I played on a volleyball league, but my life has been too hectic for even that lately. I intend to get back to it asap. I also love movies. You name it, I've probably seen it. Action, action, action!
Last but not least. My life online. Hmmmm...you all pretty well know what online life is all about. It's about friends, fun and laughter. That's the easiest way to sum it up. I know there are those of you who have had hardships online, but I won't go there or I'll end up with a goddamn book! All I can say is that you need to take things with a grain of salt. Nothing here can ever be as bad as what happens every day in the lives of others. Remember the saying, "Nothings as bad as it first appears." It all boils down to these seven simple words. Have fun people. I sure do. I love meeting new people, making people laugh, making good friends and doing what we all do best...Bullshit!!! Not bullshit as in "I'm a supermodel" or "I'm a 6'2" bodybuilder", but the bullshit hottub's, beers, waterfights, and foolishness. That bullshit that really does smell like roses. The kind you're happy to roll around in and bring good friends along for the ride. It's been a blast people. Keep it fun!
Enough is enough. I know when to quit when the goings good. Keep smiling and enjoy the site. Hugsssss and smoocherssssss.....Michelle
