I am here for Friends

About Me


I feel like a 49 yr old 'kid' at heart. I love the simple pleasures of life. Appreciating the family, friends, and even strangers around you is heart-warming for me. Forgiving and forgetting the wrongs, having a spiritual heart for Jesus, and helping others gets me through life.
I am a proud mom of a grown son and daughter and mimi to two young granddaughters. I am also a RN and retired medic. God gave me blessed opportunities working in the emergency room and prehospital field. I was a member of the Arkansas Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT) and worked in disaster times with much needed patients. I was able to travel and help others and see His beautiful creations at the same time. I volunteered as an auxillary deputy and K-9 Search and Rescue team member using bloodhounds. Do what you can when you can...and make the best of it...you never know when your life will change speed and lanes...I edited my profile at ChristianMySpaceCodes.com

My Interests


My granddaughters have been such a precious gift to me. I treasure those moments...those tender touches and words of a innocent one...and the comical ones, too!
I love to help someone smile or laugh. You never know how much God can use you through a simple 'hello' or 'have a good day.' I'm a good listener, too.
My favorite things
Sewing
Photography
Outdoors
Watching wildlife
Songbirds
Sunset breeze
Spring colors
Thunderstorm blowing in
Walking in the sand
Hunting seashells
Fall foilage
Swinging
Snowfall
Flowers
Black labs
German shepherds
Hugs
Good gospel preaching & music
Sharing what God has done
Cinderella...the "natural" girl scholarship pageant system.

I'd like to meet:

I look so forward to meeting Jesus face to face...and reuniting with others who have gone on ahead of us. How about Job and Jonah? What stories they have to tell. While here I would love to meet Maya Angelou and the GMA crew...especially the courageous Robin Roberts.
Getting to know others here has been such an experience. Everyone has something special in their life...I believe there's 'good' in everyone.
