About Me

Work: Serious and intense. Play: Mellow and easygoing.
Hobbies: Ehh, maybe a little bit of both.

Love is free, except for terrorists ...they have to pay, in blood and incarceration. Concern for my brothers and sisters in arms are of utmost importance. Brushing up on things I used to not have time for... my cooking skills, hot rollers, mindless television, playing with babies. Working on running, yoga and in-fighting combinations.

1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. ~~Matthew, 7:1

MY MOTHER and PAPA. Anyone who has ever self-sacrificed to serve in the US armed forces. Jesus.

I walk in the footprints of my mother.
Her diminutive stature and loving nature belie the infinite character of her strength and perseverance.
Her small feet have left me big shoes to fill.
Mum, if in my life I am a third of the woman you've been,
I'd have lived a good life, but not nearly as good enough.
