I make the best of any situation that it throws me and it has thrown me some interesting curves.I recently got married last year to an extra ordinary man that I love with all my heart. With him and God's grace in my life, my blessings just keep multiplying.I have made alot of changes in my life, yet, I feel that they all have brought me to the place, time and direction that I am headed for now. minute of it.I'm a hopeless romantic From Texas originally, lived in Louisiana for 26 years but now living in Oklahoma (since 2005) so I have that southern drawl going on....

My Interests

Music in all forms (would love to learn to play an instrument by the end of the year),cave exploring, fishing, crafts, art in all of its diverse forms, cooking, rediscovering what I like in life, each day I'm finding something I would like to explore more and learn about more and possibly do........the list goes on and on

I'd like to meet:

I don't know a stranger so I am sure I will find something good in everyone I meet here. You can't ever stop learning so I love to talk and find out about people, their lives and all that wonderful stuff.

Music:

Love all types---from bluegrass gospel to jazz to country to r and b to oldies to "Phantom of the Opera".....I can't just listen, though, I have to move to it...it inspires me to sing and sway and tap that foot!
