I use to do a lot of outdoors stuff - fishing or geocaching nearly every weekend, camping, ATV riding, gardening, but I developed chronic joint pain and fatigue last year and I haven't been able to do much at all since then (and my doctors haven't found an obvious cause yet). I'm passionate about photography, particularly macrophotography. I enjoy making YouTube videos for my channel. I have a daughter, she's 13, but she lives out of state with her father until this summer. I'm a transplant to the Pacific Northwest after spending the first 32 years of my life in the southwest. I miss the desert and it's blasphemy to say it up here, but I hate the rain. I'm an avid cook and baker - always from scratch.I'm a gamer. Previously Playstation but married an Xbox-er so now it's on the Xbox One. Completely obsessed with Fallout right now (I say that like I wasn't with Fallout 3 and New Vegas too). Have never played an MMO and very unlikely I ever will; I just can't get into fantasy or that kind of role-playing. I like board games like Monopoly and Evolution.I'm currently a housewife, but I start a course next month to be a system admin for a company that sells/develops CRM software. I may take coding courses later this year, if the non-profit I'm going through is able to get it set up to accept the GI Bill (military spouse here).Aside from my 42 tarantulas, I also have two dogs (a standard dachshund and a beagle/coonhound mix), a barred tiger salamander, a hedgehog, 8 snakes, two leopard geckos, and a crested gecko. Many of my animals are rescues. My family has rescued dogs for ages, whether we did it on our own or though volunteering with non-profit animal rescues.</blockquote>
