More about me

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.

Activities

I have so many interests it's most likely going to be hard to put them into legible words! I enjoy the horses in the pasture around me! Yard sales, flea markets, musty old antique stores, 1' to 1" dollhouses, remodeling, gardening (vegetables & flowers), cooking for friends, crocheting, computers, reading, writing, very little arithmetic, sewing, sitting on the front porch swing during a good rain, hugging perfect strangers if I think they need a good hug, learning new things (although life has a way of teaching much more than books!), love the therapy of making bread, oh & did I mention that I love to read? That should be enough to make one wonder for now.

Favorite Charities

Paralyzed Veterans of America, Feed the Children (local)

Favorite Music

As Marvin Gaye said, "Just like music"!

Favorite TV Shows

I suppose TV is all right. I prefer a good movie or a great book. (or staying up half the night editing a profile!)

Favorite Movies

I have an eclectic taste in movies I enjoy, from comedies to chick flicks to Whodunits & whodints. The Secret, The Stand, Sleeping With the Enemy, Kill Bill Vol. I & II, National Treasure, Copycat, The Client, Conspiracy Theory, Practical Magic (amusing), The Long Kiss Goodnight, The Gift, Gypsy, Vertigo, Lethal Weapon (all), Roman Holiday, The Haunting, The Mummy (all), Phenomenon, Patriot Games, The Cell, Pelican Brief, The Game, The Notebook, Fried Green Tomatoes, Steel Magnolias, The Ghost & Mrs Muir, Rose Red, Paycheck, Premonition, Minority Report, Sleepless in Seattle, To Wong Fu, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar

Favorite Books

Ahh books...my lovely friends & companions when the nights are long & everyone else is asleep! Books that make me think, books with a moral to the story, books that take me to all the places I've never been & books that tell me what I want to know.

Favorite Quotes

As long as the quotes are positive & uplifting or make me laugh...I likes 'em!

Favorite People

Genuine people. Just good, honest, laid back, down home, genuine people.

Favorite Places

I love the mountains. I love places that don't include tourist traps, places where the people are friendly & have no ulterior motives. Long drives along the countryside, quite evenings around a campfire, conversations with friends over a good home cooked meal, those are places I love to be. Wherever there are loved ones that's where I prefer to be.

Favorite Animals

I just love animals.
