About Me

Header Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own! Myspace Backgrounds I love to sing, love to write - anything! I just love words and music. I even love grammar and editing! I write songs here in Nashville, and sing them at various venues. I also write a lot of prose that you can find on my blog.I am a thinker, a ponderer, a very silly food fighter, and I build interesting sand sculptures on the beach just to watch peoples' reactions as they go by.I grew up in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, 60 miles north of Gulfport. We owned a fishing camp in Gautier where I spent my summers and many weekends with grandparents fishing, swimming, shrimping and making the best memories. I still love salt water fishing, and it's true that once you get sand in your shoes, you can't get it out.One day I will own a small cabin cruiser. and you will find me somewhere in the Carribbean - fishing, waving and smiling until one day, I just disappear into the horizon.I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi with a masters degree in Education.I am trying to get a song cut here in Nashville like everyone else - which will sure help with that cabin cruiser! Good Luck to us all!!!

A Prayer

Please forgive me God.  Youve given me a beautiful home to cry in, tissue to dry my tears, and privacy so no one has to look at me in these times of sadness. I must be such a disappointment to you wh...

Lunch with Ashanti

She told me I was pretty. I fought the sudden, unexpected tears and wondered why - all in the same breath. I was having lunch with one of my 5th grade students today.  A little girl whose family ...

Let Go or Be Dragged

I heard this said by a preacher recently, "Let go or be dragged".  It conjured up such a visual for me that I don't recall his point.  My mind wandered. I picture myself hanging on to the bu...
