I am here for Friends

About Me

Tom and I met in Spain. We were studying abroad in Granada. He kept me safe and was not afraid to speak Spanish poorly. I speak better, but he speaks with confidence.Then there was the time a train workers' strike trapped us in Rome. What a place to be trapped!After college we married. We have two little boys who look just like him.

My Interests

I love to cook for my starving boys.

I'd like to meet:

Poppop D and Mommom D in all their glory.And one more person, you know who you are. I will certainly meet you one day, whether on Earth or in Heaven."She was the ballerina in my jewelry box. Her gown spun above its velvet lining." real editor best profile tools real editor best profile tools

Television:

"Guiding Light." The oldest show on TV. My Great-Grandmother watched the show for decades, and we used to watch it together."Intervention." Those who know me know that God has spared me from the way that all of us are capable of hurting ourselves. I have never had an addiction. I am not proud of this. I am grateful for this. And I have so much compassion for those who are struggling with these things.
