I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a peacekeeper. I'm mostly a lover, occasionally a fighter. I can be pretty quiet. I love to be out in the sun way too much, even though I'm noticing more lines and wrinkles all the time. I'm very content with my life. I laugh a lot. I love being at home. My relationship with God is what keeps my life balanced and gives me peace in the middle of this crazy world. He is unfailing and unchanging when everything around me changes and sometimes fails. I have a great husband and wonderful friends and family. I feel very blessed.

My Interests

Spending time with my husband Ken... hanging out with friends and family... playing the piano... I LOVE spring thunderstorms... sunsets... sunrises (the very few that I've seen)... beautiful scenery... interesting animals... teaching piano lessons... Sonic slushes... flowers... gardening/yardwork... snow skiing... catching up with old friends... Lucky Charms... going to the lake... cherry lifesavers... summer... basketball... genuine people... and one of my all-time favorite things is when it's sunny and raining at the same time.

I'd like to meet:

Music:

Oh, my taste is pretty eclectic. I like 80s and 90s, oldies, some current stuff, a little bit of country. I still like hip hop and R&B once in awhile, which Ken teases me about mercilessly. I mostly listen to contemporary Christian because it helps me stay positive and keeps my thoughts focused on good things.

Movies:

There are several... My new favorite - August Rush, Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Dan in Real Life, the Bourne trilogy, Antwone Fisher, Men of Honor, The Fighting Temptations, Evan Almighty, Nothing to Lose, most of Adam Sandler & Will Ferrell's movies, Hoosiers, The Rookie, Glory Road, Remember the Titans, Invincible, We Are Marshall, Miracle, October Sky, Field of Dreams, Frequency, Hatari, Secondhand Lions, Radio... I'll add more as I think of them...

Television:

CSI, CSI Miami, House, 24, Brothers and Sisters, Extreme Makeover- Home Edition, Law & Order SVU, several on TLC, HGTV, and Bravo...

Books:

This Present Darkness, Piercing the Darkness, The Oath, The Visitation (I love Frank Peretti in general), The Purpose-Driven Life...

Heroes:

My parents and my husband. I'm blessed!
