About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Pink butterflys

~I love my family.....there is no one more important to me than my husband, kids, grandkids, and kids in law....for them, I would die~ ~My four kids are intelligent, intense, loyal, hilarious, driven, sensitive, big hearted, beautiful little drama queens~ ~My grandmother, Mary, was the best person that I've ever had the good fortune to know.....much less to love~ ~My husband is a good natured guy and a chuckle head....he's laid back, and cracks up at his own jokes, and rolls with the flow, thank goodness.....because with this bunch, one needs to roll alot~ ~Each year, we have a Halloween party and a Valentines Party and a Christmas Party and a New Years Eve Party and a Mothers/Father's day Party...even though the kids are grown, each year they know that on their birthdays they're going to get a cake and a dinner and a birthday party. We meet once a week, usually on a Sunday afternoon, to eat dinner with each other and catch up with each other. We celebrate each others lives quite a bit~ ~These four kids of mine are intensely loyal to each other. They got thrown a curve ball, and their bio dad left them when they were all very young....so instead of allowing them to be a victim or a statistic, we turned it around....and it's made them very resiliant and loyal to each other.....I'm so proud of them, and their accomplishments that it brings me to my knees and to tears when I think of how they pulled it up by the bootstraps~ ~My grandkids are perfect~*******"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ~~~~~~~~

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Send a Teddy Gram at CommentYou.comI'd like to meet George Clooney, because he's pretty. Pat Conroy because he's a phenominal writer with a huge heart. Steven Spielberg, because he's the man. Harper Lee because her book 'To Kill a Mockingbird' cannot be improved upon. Bobby Flay because he's my boyfriend (he's irish and he cooks....enough said). John Walsh because he amazes me so much....our children's world is much safer because of his groundbreaking work to help missing and exploited children. Michael Dell so that I can kick him in the shin for selling my daughter a re-furbed computer instead of a new one. Eddie Van Halen because he was my teenage crush, and the best guitarist ever. John Travolta because he was another of my teenage crushes. Suppose that this could go on forever, so moving on...

I worked at a library for years.  You get to know your patrons.  You know what their likes are, their dislikes are, and usually you can pinpoint the books they'll check out.  They ...

Your Five

I love the way Jen Lancaster writes.  After the first chapter of Bitter is the New Black, I was hooked.  She has a myspace, and I pimped myself as one of her friends.  When she added me...
