About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor

There are many things I take seriously ... myself isn't one of them.
My new website -- Vesta Sophia --Check it out!
I am an overstressed, coffee addicted, mini-van driving, married mom of three. Besides the husband and kids, I have 2 dogs, a bunch of fish, several bulimic houseplants and more dust bunnies than I can shake a broom at. I sing. I act. I laugh. I love. I drive around a lot ... but never on the interstate (there are crazy people up there) ... and I don't exactly enjoy it. I love to cook, except for when I hate it. I have several blogs out there documenting different aspects of my life. I consider myself to be resilient, a survivor. And I have some amazing friends. Lucky, aren't I?

Look-See

Looking is not seeing. To look for something is to seek what you do not have or know. To see something is to know it as it is. One can look and never see, but one cannot see without opening his eyes t...

In our beginning there was darkness.  A void.  A place of nothing.  And the Powers That Be looked upon the darkness and said, "It is good.  For in the great expanse of Nothing lie ...
