More about me

I've been divorced for 3 years. Started life all over again in Blytheville, AR. 5 years ago. Best thing I've ever done. I have 2 sons--college graduates and one is  finished with one masters' degree and is 7 classes away from a second masters'. My younger son will go to grad school after his fiancee finishes next spring.

I'm a member of Westie (West Highland White Terrier) Rescue.  I lost my Scottie after she gave birth in January and bottle raised her puppies - but only 2 survived -- and are they fantastic!!!!!  They are half Westie and half Scottie. One looks like a white Scottie, Fiona, and the boy, Finlay (Fin) looks like a Cairn Terrier - I have 3 older Westie boys - 2 rescue and one that was born at the foot of my bed in a playpen - Archie. Sissy, my almost 11 year old, has been missing since Easter. So so sad... long story.
