I later went to school and got a degree in animal science specifically related to horses. I don't have horses now, but hope to again some day. I enjoy being outdoors, obviously love being on our around horses, helping animals, and spending time with my family. I am an avid scrapbooker and have been trying to learn a little about photography. My two canine friends, Moka and Mylee keep me company.

Hi Shelly!!
on your 23rd wedding anniversary! Do you have any special plans? or is Hubby going to surprise you? I love horses to, but I cant ride them. My first time riding was my last. It killed my back . I love your avatar picture, did you do that yourself. I love black and whites with a tad bit of color, esp Red!

I am Lindsey, I am 26 years old, and I live in the Canadian prairies I grew up in a very small town, and always wished I could grow up in the city. After living in the city, I moved back to a small town, knowing it's the kind of place I want to raise my children We live just 20 minutes from the city limits so it's kind of the best of both worlds!

I work as a civil engineering technologist. Basically, I sit at a computer and draft engineering plans. I used to love it, and now I dread coming to work. I have only been doing it 4 years but I just feel like I need a change already.

I live with my boyfriend of 2.5 years. Together we bought an old 2.5 storey, 1916ish character home. It is the house of our dreams! We knew we wanted it as soon as we saw the listing. He was born and raised in a city, but knew I dreamed of being in a small town again, so we made the move Now I'm just waiting for a ring, a wedding, and then we can start filling the house with children I think I was born to be a mom, and our house is too big for just the two of us!

I love history, and I love traveling. I can not go on vacation without doing something educational! I can go to Mexico and while everyone else is laying on the beach, I'm in a museum We go to Vegas, and I'm touring Hoover Dam. New York City? Architecture, museums, history tours. I'm kind of a nerd. We're going to Europe in a few months and I think I may have educational overload European history is my favorite.

I have one older brother and we have had, and still do have, issues with each other quite often. He tends to be quite selfish and I tend to give more than I should and stretch myself thin. I dread when he comes asking for a favor because he usually does take advantage of me, but I try to look past it because he's my brother! He lives with his girlfriend who has two adorable daughters and I love them to pieces!

I'm sort of a girly-girl, although I still consider myself tough. I could wear 4 inch heels and skirts every day. I also love camping, boating, fishing, and I ride a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R Although I hope to sell it soon to fund my Europe trip Anyone looking for a fun ride??

We are doing this ourselves and my husband is putting alot of attention into details right down to the rock selection so it is going to be amazing. We are alloting so much money to go into it every month so thats the hard part we just want to finish it and cant but it should be done by the end of May. Thats our goal anyway and then all we have to do are plants, landscaping and buy our Koi. I have an aquatic turtle in my aquarium that i bought years ago so hes going to go in and we are also going to put tadpoles in. I just want it to be done it was a major undertaking we had to take out 3 trees in our backyard and this month we have to have electrical work done. We have had the hole dug for our pond since last summer so thats why Im so anxious. Weve been preparing for this for a year. Thanks for asking

The only thing I miss is ordering delivery lol! It's so peaceful and friendly though. I guess this town did have a grocery store but it shut down and some people are wanting a new one to start up... I used to work in the grocery store where I grew up, so maybe that can be my new career path lol!

I used to ride on the back of my ex-boyfriend's Yamaha R6. After getting my own bike, I'd never ride on the back again! I don't like not being in control lol. When I started dating my boyfriend now, he wanted to ride my bike with me on the back, and I made him buy his own. We actually have matching Kawi's His is red, mine is blue. The fastest I went was 175 kph which is 108 mph.. I couldn't imagine going faster than that I freaked myself out going that fast! AND I was only in 4th gear... there's two more above that... I hope nobody ever finds out how fast my bike can go!

I've attached a picture of my house, it's from the house listing. I have it saved on my work computer lol. The garage in the back was built on later with another addition to the back of the house. I also included a picture of a picture of our house as it was originally built.

I love your house with the 2nd story balcony it has alot of character. Ive lived in a small town like that. When I lived there I didnt like it very much but it was a period where I was struggling. But now that I live in the City I miss that quiet kind of life. I think thats why we are putting so much into our backyard. We just want our own quiet place to go

"I think about cake pretty much every day" You are so funny!! What is your all time fav, one you would be able to eat everyday?

"My Mom died from cancer when I was 21, 10 days later - I rolled my car 4x and ended up in the ICU" We were about the same age in loosing a Mother or Father, it is a very hard thing to deal with, I sometimes struggle. I am so glad to hear you were able to overcome your accident, sounds like it was really bad! Your Mom must have been watching over you.

That is so funny, I wish I had small boobies too, Like Paris Hilton small!!

OMG I love your house!! That is like my dream house!! How does it feel to live in a old house like that? Do you hear little sounds that scare you?

I don't ride on his bike anymore, Since you have been on the bike you know how uncomfortable it is! It really hurts my back! So I never go, and it is safer for him and of course me. I would never be able to get my own and ride one, LoL I am too chicken!! You are a brave girl! I love to ride my quad, I would rather crash on dirt than street!!

Well with all the time, money, and thoughts that go into it, I am sure it is going to look amazing! I honestly would love to see pics of it!! I am sure you are super excited to get it done!!

Thank you!!! It is our dream house too I am very chicken to be in any house alone at night so that was my big problem with this one, but honestly, it does not bother me. I never feel scared or worried. We made the top floor a hang out/movies area with a projector and screen, and the screen constantly goes up and down by itself. But even that doesn't scare me! I feel like if there are spirits in the house, they are friendly. We've been there a year and haven't had any big scares yet!

I am scared of crashing too, moreso now than I was before. I think it's just being older now lol. There are tons of crashes here every year, a lot of people don't make it through. We have winter 6 months out of the year, and our streets are all gravelled for traction in the winter and it takes sometimes until mid to end of summer to have them all swept off again, and taking corners is just not safe in a lot of areas. Plus, cars don't watch for us because most of the year, bikes aren't out on the streets. Layla needs me to be her mommy and I can't just be banged up in a hospital or worse. Who would take care of her? So that's a big reason I'm selling it this year.

Hello Johnna, I love how some of you put a Picture!! Nice touch, Now I want to add mine!! I know how you feel with the job you have, I deal with people screaming at me, being rude, and then you have your wonderful customers that send you flowers!! I love it as well. I hope you do get some Grandkids soon! My Mom just had her first, Our Little Lilah, I know she is super excited to be a Grandma!! Thats all you can do is make the best out of what you are given, I am 29 and have back problems, and I am like almost blind, I would lost without glasses or contacts, I also was just diagnosed with tachycardia, so I have to take a pill everyday to slow it down, I try not to stress over it I just deal with it and Dh is really doing a good job supporting me! You seem like a really nice and caring person from reading your post!!

Hands down, Red Velvet Cake w/ the traditional flour-based frosting. Oh, mouthgasm.

Me too, on the boobies! I want tiny! I'm a C, but only 32" band size - and it's so hard to get things to fit right. I don't like being chesty at all.
