Hobbies
God, family and friends are very important to me. I enjoy reading; it is relaxing, entertaining and educational for me. I also enjoy walks on the beach and Florida offers great views. I like to play video games, board games and other activities with my son. He is a wonderful 10 year old boy. I love walking my adorable Shih-tzu, spending time with my boy, volunteer work, working with kids, music, movies, Wii, theme parks, being happy, being around positive non-judgmental people, and swimming. I am always interested in learning about Psychology, gluten free diet, the most up-to-date scientific research, technology, karma, spirituality, the law of attraction and human behavior.
