About Me

My husband calls me "Retro Nanc" because I prefer the way things used to be, or at least the way they seemed to me at the time.I tell him this is a good thing because he is a definite throwback to the world of black and white movies and the perfect romantic leading man. To me he's Gary Grant, Jimmy Stewart and a tiny bit of Humphrey Bogart all rolled into one.In additon to my mate, I love my kids, my grandkids, my friends, animals, old music, even older movies,and all things peaceful.In my former world I was a journalist and editor of a weekly newspaper. In fact, I still reach for my car keys when I hear a siren. You could paint spots on me and I'd make the perfect fire-house mascot.

My Interests

My family, my animals, my friends, The Chicago Bears and The Chicago Cubs, plus my personal war on Fibromyalgia.

I'd like to meet:

God - but I'll wait until He's ready for me. George W. Bush, Anderson Cooper, Pres. Jimmy Carter, Bill O'Reilly, Ellen Degeneres, Barbara Bush and Simon Cowell... I wish I could have met: Lady Diana, Martin Luther King, Steve Irwin, Elvis Presley, Winston Churchill and Abraham Lincoln.

Music:

If it was written and performed before 1965 I probably loved it. And of course - ELVIS. Anything by Elvis.

SANDI PATTI lyrics

Movies:

Same as the music. I love the oldies. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir is my all-time favorite.

Television:

Bring on the crime!!!!!! Monk, Bones, CSI (the original), Criminal Minds, The Medium, House and American Idol.

Books:

Most anything written by Mary Higgins Clark, Patricia Cornwell, Kathy Reichs, Sue Grafton, Tami Haug and others in the same genre. I also love the Cat Who books by Lillian Braun. And - of course The Bible.

Heroes:

My husband Larry. I never believed someone could be SO good and love me anyway. My kids: Michelle and Randy. How did I get so lucky to have you in my life? My grandkids: Michael, Matthew and Jenna. You have no idea how much I love you and I'm so darn proud of each of you.Everyone who is willing to stand up and say, "Wait just one minute, what you're about to do is wrong."In addition, I'd have to say most of my real life heroes are serving in Iraq and other foreign lands right now. God Bless and protect them. The war may be WRONG but you're what still makes America the greatest country in the world.
