I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a recently singled mother of 4, my kids are 15, 10, 8 and 3, and they are my entire world. I am a Christian, and I thank God every day for the blessings in my life. I retired several years ago from the financial services field to own a clothing store, which I closed a little over a year ago. So now I'm writing the next great american Tony-winning play. We'll see how that goes. They say living well is the best revenge. I plan to live VERY well....

My Interests

Books, italian food, writing, a major purse fetish, consignment shops, antique shops, yard sales, ice cream. Reflexology and Massage, photography.

I'd like to meet:

Friends. That's it...friends. I do see someone currently, and I'm a total one-man woman. But I love re-connecting with old friends and making new ones. So if you'd like to have a funny, intelligent, sometimes sarcastic conversation, or if you'd like to just butter me up for primo 4th of July or craft show parking, fine. But puhleease don't insult me with "hey mamma" lines. My delete will be swift and definite.

Music:

jazz, 80's pop, classical, opera, blues. K.D. Lang is totally awesome. Billy Joel, Sade, Marvin Gaye, Steely Dan, Broadway tunes, Barry White, Sarah Vaughn, and the amazing Carole King.

Movies:

Rocky (all of them except 5), Last Tango in Paris, all things Edward Norton, The Godfather, When Harry Met Sally, Rear Window, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

Television:

Seinfeld, Everybody loves Raymond, Sex and the City, Project Runway, Flip that House, all the Law & Orders

Books:

All I do is read, read, read, so listing books would take more space than I have...

Heroes:

Ferris Bueller, GG (senza fine)

THE STUFF IN MY BASEMENT (lessons from Rocky)

The ROCKY movies were some of the best ever made. Oh you can argue a good case for others, but for sheer life-lesson-ness and inspiration, Rocky does it for me every time. In this last one, Rocky Balb...

Hey, penis...(subtitled: the singles pool needs some chlorine)

Ok, so some of you have noticed. Obviously, some of you have not.  My very serious last blog on infidelity brought a lot of email...and strangely a lot of friend requests.  Many of them with...

Pesky thing, morality...

Some rainy days there's really nothing better to do than to figure things out.  Pesky thing, this morality.  How is it some people are able to just cast theirs aside in the name of...

A letter to my daughters....

Or this could be titled, lessons from the battlefront.  If you are in a relationship, get out before you go shopping around for a new one.  Otherwise, you may as well have the words "If the...
