About Me



I'm just a mom hanging on to this rollercoaster ride called life. And do I love rollercoasters! I've come to terms with the fact that I will be forever know as someones mom. (Actually, I kind of enjoy it)
I like to think of myself as a conservative independant liberal republican democratic mom. Did I miss anything?
One of the everyday things I enjoy the most is the ocean. I love the sound, the smell, how peaceful it is at sunrise. If I could live on the ocean I'd be satisfied.
Say what you mean and mean what you say. It's that simple.

"Great spirits have always encountered opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly."-Albert Einstein quoted in New York Times, March 13, 1940

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Humans along life's path. Everyone has a story, everyone has something they need to say.

Thanks Nigel!

I'm sorry. I don't speak "christianese"

Do you? What is "christianese" and why do so many people feel that in order to follow God, they have to use certain verbage? Shouldn't our actions say more?  How do we treat people we don't know?...
