About Me

You'll find out but...I like to laugh and cry. I love to a fault. I forgive but never forget. I'm quiet but always have an opinion. I like to watch. Working makes me happy. I'm giving and selfish sometimes at the same time. I'm honest to the point of getting myself in trouble. I have a kind heart but am stronger than you'll ever know. I know my faults. I can see yours but will praise you for your positives. I adore my friends even when I hate them. I am one of a kind...just ask around.

I seem to find the oddest things when I'm driving around in my car. Today was no exception. After changing lanes, I find myself sitting behind this monster truck with the following appendage dangling ...

When you're an optimist...

...you're always getting disappointed by people and their actions or inactions. But you give them the benefit of the doubt...time and time again. Does that make you a sucker? Maybe. To other people......

Ouch

So I was shoveling the other day and thought I would do my neighbour a favour and shovel some of his walk. Nearing the end of my chore, I took a weird twist and felt something odd in my lower back. 'H...
