Personality: she's a talker! OMG her mouth never stops moving. LOL And her whole family's like that. I love them dearly but boy do they gossip, holy cow! She's very emotional and very loving. She cares about other people, probably too much so in fact. She worries about other people's problems and takes them on herself and gets all stressed out. She's a worrier, which might be why I'm not her favorite person. I agitate her. Also, I'm real laid-back and I don't stress over anything. She gets real stressed out about money and materials, I feel like she puts too much focus on that stuff, but hey that's just me. I'm too "reckless" for her liking. We're on good terms, we just agree to disagree. Other than that, she's a nurturer and she does want the best for everyone. She took us in after my parents split and for that I'm eternally grateful.
