I am 55 years worth of experiences...
I have 2 biological children, a Son 35 (who has 2 daughters) & a Daughter 34 (who has 2 sons) & have lost count of all the children I consider mine that I didn't give birth to...
I've loved & have been loved...
I've hated & have been hated...
I've broken hearts & God knows I've had my heart broken...
I strive to be a friend & never an enemy, though I've had enemies I didn't ask for...
I am honest to a fault & whatever is on my mind most usually comes out of my mouth...
I've been careful whom to call a friend, whom to call an acquaintance, & most important whom to stay away from...
I'm not one to burn my bridges but with age comes experience & some bridges just scream out to be burned...
I've been a city woman & a country girl & though I chose to remain a country girl I am still ALL woman...
I am alone but never lonely...
I like myself the way I am which isn't to say that I don't like changes for the better or am afraid to make them...
I'm a dreamer & a realist as well & I prefer to see the best in everyone until proven otherwise...
No drugs, no alcohol, been there tried that, it didn't work for me...
Just as there are two sides to a coin, so it is with me as I will allow only so much & I know how to set boundaries...
I am not now, nor ever have been, nor ever shall be a "groupie". I know what I like, end of that story...
I'm happiest in a garden, cooking for friends, baking, & making any house I live in a home...
I lend a helping hand when I am able, yet it hurts me to have to ask for help...
I am a hard worker & will always give my best in any given situation...
I am a survivor of many horrible experiences & yes, I have baggage & scars, but I like to believe I've grown as a woman in spite of it all...
I'm trusting yet I have trust issues...
I am someone to be reckoned with if you really piss me off...
I am an easy yet complicated woman to be around as long as you don't expect more from me than I am willing to give...
Strong? Yes, but my strength comes from within because of the experiences I've endured by the grace of God...
I've been married & divorced...more than once... which is most likely why I am still alone...
I make bizarre jokes about falling in love yet I still have the hope of finding my soul's friend...
Oh, and when I do fall in love, it will be with someone who is thankful every moment that I am in his life...
I've lived...I've died (literally)...& I live.
