More about me
I am 56 years old and divorced with 3 grown children. (who have forgotten they have a mom...boo hooooo) I work full time. I have 2 dogs, and my dream job would be to own and operate an animal shelter, or work in a Library. I like to watch CSI, Cops, Law and Order, Discover, Sci Fi, and mystery and Psychological thrillers. Books, the same, with a little adult fantasy (that’s' NOT porno, in case you don't know it) thrown in. I read a lot of magazines. I guess I just like to read. I will read anything if it holds my interest. No Romance books. PUHLEEEZE! So many books, so little time! I love to play with Graphic Arts programs. I am also interested in photography and photo manipulation programs. Hate crowds, hate dressing up, but I do it when I have to. Prefer jeans and T's. Don't mind getting dirty doing something I enjoy, like walking in the woods or fishing.

Favorite Quotes
A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man ....which debt he proposes to pay off with your money. -G Gordon Liddy Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it. -Ronald Reagan (1986) The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. -Winston Churchill The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have. (unknown) 'Life isn't about how to survive the storm, But how to dance in the rain.' (unknown) Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. -P.J. O'Rourke, Civil Libertarian
