Favorite Charities

Women's shelters, ASPCA and American Cancer Society. Another note, if you are not an organ donor, become one!!

Favorite Music

The Who, especially their new releases, the Eagles, the Beatles/early and everything Paul McCartney has done. Some country/western and a lot of the "classic rock". No rap/hip hop or heavy metal. Really enjoy Yanni's works.

Favorite Books

I read everything that has worth, not into trashy novels or ALL of the self help books. ( I was raised with good old fashioned common sense), except a cookbook can't hurt sometimes.

Favorite Quotes

If it's not broke, don't fix it!

Favorite People

My grand father Bales, My Father and Step Mom, My wonderful Daughter and Granddaughter and the love of my life, David Sadenwater, whom God took way too soon. My favorite President was Ronald Regan, he was a no nonsense man with good old fashioned common sense! My least favorite person right now would be Hillary Clinton. She is such a phony with a personal agenda that is scary!

Favorite Places

Home, Church and the beach. Sounds limited, but it isn't at all.
, that was one of my favorite things to do is help sick people feel better.

Favorite Animals

Dogs because they are loyal and love unconditionally, Cats because of their independence, grace and style, Horses because they are so majestic and wonderful, and Wild birds (I hate to see anything caged) for their beauty and song.
