My name is Julie and I have two boys, age 12 and 2.5. I was born in Ohio, but didn't live there long. Grew up in the Midwest USA, but have lived on St. John, the smallest of the US Virgin Islands, for the last 14 years. I own a designer jewelry store. I don't really have any hobbies No time.... but I used to like to sew. And I love to go fishing. Now my free time is usually spent reading since it kind of decompresses me and takes my mind off of everyday worries. As far as interesting facts... hmm... when I was 12 I rode my bike pretty much the entire length of the lower peninsula of Michigan (from ST. Joseph to Mackinaw Island). My store was voted the best designer retailer jewelry store in the United States by those in the industry. I almost always have a piece of gum in my mouth because I grind my teeth and this is the only thing that I have found to stop it. I am also really shy.
