Well, I don't smoke, do drugs or drink alcohol. I made those decisions early in life. I don't wear jewelry. BLING is nice, but doesn't interest me. no piercings. No body art. Shoes? I can't recall when I last bought a pair of new shoes for myself. And the lower the heel the better! Chocolate is nice, but I can take it or leave it. I hate my cell-phone and only text with my children. I don't do insta-gram, or any phone related things--but I should. I don't watch TV or go to movies. So, do I have any vices? Hmmmmm..... Do you think I'd admit it if I did? ;-)
My life is my two youngest sons. School. Work. I don't have time or energy to do much more than that. Well, really...? It sounds like I don't have a life. Yeah.... well, for now my focus is on Family, School, Paying Bills.
The things I love the most are, in this order:
- My six children. They are amazing and I miss the four that are grown and on their own.
- Photography. I am lucky that I can do something I love on a day to day basis.
- Quilting--fabric, color, texture... OH WOW! I am on sensory over-load.

Can't say that parenting is an addiction.
Although a few of the words related to addiction do fit with parenting:
advocate, authority, backer, friend, supporter
Neighbor Boy Watching the Fireworks.
I am enthusiastic and passionate about photography.
This is my fabric stash
(just imagine six sets of bookcases with five shelves each packed full with fabric.....)
Okay, so, I am a fabric junky. You got it. That is my addiction.
(My X even used this addiction against me in our divorce.)
