Joyce's Three Obsessions/Collections
1) Dishes--even if they only cost 33cents--I love collecting dishes. When food costs get extremely high, setting a pretty table--even for a tuna fish sandwich--makes it taste better.
2) Cookbooks--the best novels ever--and yes, I do try out many new recipes. I'd have to say I prefer cookbooks to internet recipe sites. However, I do have many internet recipes I have printed and used--some back from 1997 even.
3) Children's story books--I love the fact the each of the kids and grandkids loves to look at books. It's neat to see Bryson get excited about reading.

Three Random Facts About Joyce
1) I actually am an organized person, even though to many of you I may appear totally unorganized. Some of my projects are in a transition to becoming organized. I love having the house totally clean. When the kids were small, I have been known to call Dennis and say, "I wish you could run home right now and see that the house is totally clean. I know it's a temporary state but for one minute it could be spotless."
2) I am basically a quiet individual--it just depends how you look at it. I love to sit a watch people; they are fascinating things to watch.
3) I love to do things and go places. Yet at the same time, I love being at home. Hey, I guess I just simply love being the person I am and being able to enjoy all of the things and people around me.

Joyce's Three Goals
1) To actually get each of my four kids from childhood to adulthood--in the history book format. I get very behind and would love the time to work on them.
2) To spend a complete day or two sewing. I have tons of "projects" to tackle and finish. It would be fun to be "grounded" to getting to do whatever I want to do in the house.
3) To loose these extra pounds I cart around. I guess I've learned the hard way that stress can hinder the loss weight. Whoever came up with that idea knew what they were talking about.

Greatest Fears
1) Being left alone in the world. I enjoy my independence; I love being needed to help anyone in our family.

Hey -

Someone changed this since the last time I looked at it.

All I know is that - when it comes to shopping - Laneah has the right idea.
