About Me


About me? I married the love of my life on October 8, 2005 and couldn't be happier. Joel is a wonderful husband, an incredible father and truly my best friend and soul mate.


When I married Joel, I also vowed to love his two kids - something that is USUALLY very easy to do. I have a wonderful 13-year old step son named Zayne and a incredible 10-year old step daughter named Kyah.
I adore our pets - 2 dogs (a Rat Terrier named Oz and a Shih Tzu named Katana), 1 cat (Pacey) and 1 ferret (Vinnie.) In June 2008 we got rid of our Black Lab Piper. It was a long time coming and is honestly for the best but I miss her something fierce. Joel's ferret Norton also passed away that same month.
I work from home (after a long stint of not being able to work at all), set my own hours and let my creativity flow.
It's a good fit for me. Check out what I'm doing for work if you want by copying and pasting the link below my logo. (Sorry but I cannot get the direct linking to work anymore.)

Currently, I'm in my 10th year of dealing with/suffering from/coping with/living through life with mental illness - mainly depression but more recently diagnosed with OCD, anxiety disorder (panic attacks) and agoraphobia.
It's still an up and down roller coaster life for me but I seem to be improving. Overall life is getting better.
I'm a Wiccan, a Pagan, a Witch. I dedicated myself to Wicca officially in 1995 and then again in 2002. I'm getting back into the swing of things again after an absence from studying and practicing so I'll be rededicating myself for hopefully the third and final time.
My interest in non-Christian religion began in 1989 and I found Wicca and have been studying and learning ever since. There were a few years of time when I neither studied nor practiced because of bad experiences.
It's who I am. Don't judge. If you don't understand, just ask.
I really don't know what else to say. The pictures, songs and everything about this page represent me: who I am, what I love, what is important to me.
I guess if you cannot get a sense of me from that then I don't know what to tell you.

I L-O-V-E animals! Polar bears, Pandas, Gorillas & Turtles are my favorites. I also like frogs but that seems to be diminishing for some reason.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



♥ These are the famous people (and yes, I am aware some of these people are no longer living) that I'd love to meet if given the chance:

I'd also like to meet Charles Manson (crazy I know). He's creepy and convinced people to do terrible things but there is something fascinating about him. Also Hugh Hefner, Tina Fey and Seth Rogan.

♥ Friends from my school days:
Peru State College
Cozad High School
Cozad Middle School
North Platte Adams
Cody Elementary in North Platte
Old McDonald pre-school in North Platte

♥ Other Wiccans and Pagans (especially those in Nebraska)

♥ Others who are step parents

♥ Those battling with (and hopefully beating) depression, anxiety disorders, OCD and Agoraphobia

♥ People that are real, genuine and utterly true to themselves. These are simply the best people and I am honored to call so many of them a friend.
