I am here for Friends

About Me

Over nine years ago, I married one of the Rhodes Boys (the cute one), whose reputations precede them. You may know him as S-O or Esso (or even "Jumpy")...I have two great step-kids that I adore immensely, my step-son is 13 and my step-daughter is 11. I also have two naughty dogs and I am the proud owner of the most famous dog ever, Miss Smoochie!
I'm beginning to think Boo Radley had the right idea. I'm a boring old broad and I like it that way, so bugger off!
