About Me

....

I was born on January 19, 1948 in New Orleans, LA and spent my childhood in Mobile, AL where I attended St Marys Elementary and Bishop Toolen High School. At Toolen, I was President of The Young Christian Students, Student Council Representative, Page Editor and Columnist of The BiToolian, in the National Honor Society, in the Quill & Scroll Honor Society, Fine Arts Student Chair, recipient of the Poetry Award and in the French Club. I graduated in 1967 and moved to Houston, TX to attend the University of Houston where I majored in English and minored in Journalism and was a member of Gamma Sigma Sigma. My first job, at the age of 17, was with Fred Astaire Dance Studios. Then, while in college, I worked as a bookkeeper for Gordons Jewlery Company. My early career choice was in the insurance industry where I was employed with Kemper Insurance, Horace Mann Educators and a New York-based commercial broker named Johnson & Higgins of Texas where I worked for 8 years as a Claims Analyst. I married Michael Robert in 1968 and we were together for 17 and a half years, divorcing in 1985. He passed away in 2000. We have two beautiful daughters, one born in 1970 and one born in 1980 and an awesome grandson born in 1989. In 1987 I moved to Austin, TX and worked for a Christian-owned Temporary Technical Agency named Milam Design Services. In 1991, I joined a governmental agency for the State of Texas and am looking forward to early retirement in 2 1/2 years.I have sought all my life to know, love and serve God. I am a Christian and member of The Catholic Church and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. These Churches represent the Alpha and the Omega in my Christian walk. I am grateful for the teaching, kindness and support of many Christian fellowships including Sunset Valley Ward, Berkeley United Methodist Church, Bannockburn Baptist Church, St. Mary and St. Ignatius Martyr Catholic Churches, Shema Yisrael Messianic Jewish Congregation, Lakewood Church and Jubilee Christian Center. I delight in worshipping God and experience His presence and the fulfillment of His promises daily. I echo the words of Jesus in my desire for Christian unity: That they may be one; as Thou Father art in me and I in Thee, that they may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. John 17:21Always interested in new friends, I would love to make contact with YOU here on myspace. Now is the time to contact me and let us watch our friendship develop. I am an inclusive Christian and love Jesus Christ with all my heart. My dream is to spend life with a companion who is as faithful to me and I am to him, as we travel, enjoy romancing each other and participate in Christian service.My favorite sketch of Tinkerbell that I got as a Tattoo on my 60th Birthday!

Friends and of course, Jesus Christ."You will be here...""HOOK" - TINKERBELL & PETER BANNING (PAN)"HOOK" - I BELIEVE IN FAIRIES"HOOK" - TINK'S KISSTINKER BELL -Tinker Bell is a fictional character in J.M. Barrie's play and subsequent novel Peter Pan, and various adaptations of them. She is described as a common fairy who mends pots and kettles, i.e. a tinker, and is often referred to simply as Tink. Though sometimes ill-behaved and vindictive, at other times she is helpful and kind to Peter (for whom she apparently has romantic feelings). The extremes in her personality are explained by the fact that a fairy's size prevents her from holding more than one feeling at a time.In one famous scene, she is dying, but will survive if enough people believe in fairies. In the play the characters make a plea to the children watching to sustain her by shouting out "I believe in fairies," an example of "breaking the fourth wall." In the novel and the 2003 film, Peter calls out to dreaming children within the storytelling universe. At the end of the novel, when Peter returns to the Darling home after a year, it is revealed that Tinker Bell "is no more" since "fairies don't live long, but they are so small that a short time seems a good while to them." Like nearly everything that has happened in the story, Peter has forgotten her; real death and sadness cannot exist in his everlasting childhood.In stage presentations, she is typically represented by a tightly focused spotlight or other lighting effect (in a London staging of it, the lights failed and they had to use a matchstick fastened to an ice cube to give a strange light effect). In the book, she is described as "a girl called Tinker Bell exquisitely gowned in a skeleton leaf, cut low and square, through which her figure could be seen to the best advantage. She was slightly inclined to embonpoint."On screen, she has been played by Virginia Browne Faire (Herbert Brenon's 1924 silent movie Peter Pan), Julia Roberts (Steven Spielberg's 1991 film Hook), and Ludivine Sagnier (P. J. Hogan's 2003 film Peter Pan). Despite an urban legend that Disney modeled the character in the 1953 animated film version after actress Marilyn Monroe, Margaret Kerry actually served as the animators' reference.A bronze statue by London born sculptor Diarmuid Byron O'Connor was commissioned by Great Ormond Street Hospital — to whom Barrie bequeathed the copyright to the character — to be added to his four foot statue of Peter Pan, wresting a thimble from Peter's hand. The figure has a 9.5 inch wingspan and is 7 inches high, said to be the smallest statue in London. It was unveiled on September 29, 2005 by Sophie Countess of Wessex.In addition to Arthur Rackham's original illustrations, Tinker Bell has also been portrayed by Brian Froud and Myrea Pettit.In the anime series Peter Pan no Boken, Tinkerbell is voiced by Sumi Shimamoto.Disney - Tinker Bell is one of the mascots for Disney.Disney's version of the fairy (whom they sometimes call a pixie), clad in a lime-green, hip-length dress with a rigid trim,and green-slippers, became a mascot for The Walt Disney Company, appearing in commercials and program openings to spread fairy dust. She was also among the numerous Disney characters to appear in the television series House of Mouse, and appeared in the Kingdom Hearts video game series. She has also made appearances in the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection by waving her wand the text turns into the logo.She is part of both the Disney Princesses & Disney Fairies.Tinker Bell now has her own book series. Written by Ella Enchanted author Gail Carson Levine, Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg is the first entry in the Disney Fairies series. In it, Tinker Bell and three fairy friends are faced with the task of protecting the egg responsible for keeping Neverland's inhabitants young.Tinker Bell has never had a voice in most Disney films. However, Brittany Murphy will be providing the character's voice in the forthcoming film Tinker Bell based on the Disney Fairies franchise. Other Hollywood actresses will be the voices of Tinker Bell's friends (Rosetta will be voiced by Kristen Chenoweth while Iridessa, Fawn and Silvermist have no specific actresses named yet for the other fairies.)Tinker Bell has had a few boyfriends over the years: in Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg, she shared mutual affection with the sparrow man Terence. In the official sequel to Barrie's novel, Tinker Bell falls in love with the fairy Fireflyer. After Fireflyer commits a heroic act, she and Fireflyer are married. They spend the rest of their lives performing the dangerous job of catching dreams with a tripwire and selling them to pirates and Roarers.Disney has released previews of a new movie starring Tinker Bell. It is set in the secret world of "Pixie Hollow" and introduces various new fairies that form part of Tinker Bell's world.

Music:

Michael's music has blessed me a great deal, especially the CD's "Joy in the Journey" and "Starkindler". The single "They Called Him Laughter" from his album, "The Beginning" is especially meaningful to me as my spirit was filled with laughter as I woke up on the morning of my grandson's birth. The Spirit of the Lord is upon him as he ministers in music. God's Love Upon Michael Card, I truly enjoy music by Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers, Derek Webb, Michael Card and freestyle rap by my grandson, Dat Boy Dylan. I have also begun to appreciate the live rock 'n roll / blues music scene here in Austin this year. Every Thursday night there are free concerts around town and I have attended quite a few.
