About Me

In case you are wondering why I haven't posted anything in awhile, I'm back working on my book when I have spare time. So patience; the urge will strike me and I'll have something else on here soon.I'm a transplanted Yankee and have been married to the same wonderful man for 34 years. I have two wonderful children who are both married and two beautiful grandchildren. My third grandchild passed away on May 2nd 2008. My fourth grandchild passed away on October 27th, 2008. This year really sucks.I love working in the medical field. My hobbies include reading, writing, drawing and painting, and antiques. I also love to fish but I don't get near enough time to do that.My pets include my dog Blue who is my friend and protector and a cat who thinks she's human by the name of Patches.Hope you will enjoy my blog! Please write and tell me if you enjoy what I write or even if you don't. I'd love to hear from you.I'm also on URBIS at: http://urbis.com/LMPATE

What Dreams Unfold?

Look out upon the day Orange orb rising, erasing black Streaks of red with smears of blue Remnants of a waning moon Breezes tease the leaves of green Rabbits flirt within the shrubs Opossum lumbers sl...
