About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Symphony

I believe strongly that a smile can make the worst day better and laughter can change it completely!Age is a number and my heart will always be young. Some days are better than others... I am constantly shocked and dismayed at mankinds inhumanity towards each other and the environment. Better later than never i have begun some serious recycling behavior. As Albert Einstein said "Think Different!" I have found numerous old friends and family on this site.. I have found it a good way to keep in contact with them. I am Cool And Fun.. Old men love me. One even touched my boob once, in a public place. I made him do it again, just to be sure I was right! I am turned on by Self Esteem/Self Worth. I am forever changing...I have many aspects to me. I am the creator of what I have become. Just think so are you the creator of yourself. So do you like what you see? This year 2008 is my year to let go and start over. I'm cleaning out the clutter. Sometimes the best company is mine. I enjoy myself. Be yourself. Think about how you are. Trust your intuition. Laugh as much as possible. KNOW YOU ARE YOUR BEST FRIEND. You always have a choice. Make your space(what you want) in this world and the Universe will provide. I was married to the military for 20 years and traveled a bit and lived on the North Shore of Oahu for 10 years. I have been single since 1996. I have two grown children three cats and two ex-husband listed in order of importance.~~~ In May 2006 I nearly lost my life. I was on life support and developed two blood clots in my left leg and was later told I almost lost my leg also! Because of the leg injury I live in sandals now, look how cute they are. I am beginning to believe that the physical scars heal alot faster than the emotional ones. Having a physical injury does not define who I am as a person..It is a time for me to define where I am going!.. I enjoy and am happiest when I am being creative either by designing/decorating or writing an interesting or not so interesting Blog which always includes facts of my life and a little imagination. I give my opinion a great deal and then end up wishing I had kept silent. Most of the time I think people are only listening to themselves. I quote famous people, but some of them are idiots too. I have met a few celebrities on my journey through life. I met Tom Selleck at a volleyball game, was invited to sit and have drinks with David Carradine and a few of his friends at a club called Steamer's on the North Shore and I also was on the Judge Judy Show in November of 2005(long story, that would require a blog to explain.) I always thought that a person would have to be crazy to go on that show and face her wrath but, she actually was very kind and sweet to me.
You Are Kermit
Hi, ho! Lovable and friendly, you get along well with everyone you know.
You're a big thinker, and sometimes you over think life's problems.
Don't worry - everyone knows it's not easy being green.
Just remember, time's fun when you're having flies! ~~~ WHEN THE ANGELS..... When the angels came that one cool night as I was sleeping. When the angels came I awoke suddenly and found them standing in my doorway looking at me watching over me, bathed in a brilliant light so bright and white but yet it did not blind meThey said not a word to me but gestured slowly pointing to the heavens, bidding me to lookAnd there before my eyes I saw the peopleAll the people everywhere, moving in fast motionDoing all the things people do while the scene played faster and faster before my eyes. Scenes of life,love,chaos...of destruction.All the while the angels were mumbling I could not understand what they were saying Although I strained to hear. Just soft spoken syllables too low and fast to make out. And still I watched. It overwhelmed me and, as I asked them to slow down, it all came to an abrupt end. It was over and the angels receded. I sat alone in the dark wide awake, my mind racing.All those scenes, snippets of life. Some I recognize already. They have come to pass. And I realize that the angels were never speaking to me. The images placed before me said it all. Finally I understand after all this time. The angels never spoke to me. THEY WERE PRAYING...

My Interests

For two years I have been waxing nostalgic over lost time...lost youth...and the coming of the half century mark. Now that it is here, I am surprised to find it is nothing but a sunrise and a sunset....and the lofty hours in between. The face in the mirror is changing and the body feels a bit tired after 10 to 12 hours of filling up space. If being 50 years old is bad then so be it. I'm tired of not knowing what is so noble or even unsavory about it. And except for the copious insecurities, the fake smiles and ignorances that are mine, I am only half bad and I hope you will abide that.I LOVE:MY "CLUCKS", DUSK, CLEAN SHEETS, BRIGHT SUMMER DAYS OF OPPRESSIVE HEAT, HOW MUD FEELS BETWEEN MY TOES, WARMING MY HANDS BY A FIRE, THE WARMTH OF A FRESH PICKED TOMATO, THE BEACH, THE SMELL OF LAVENDER, PINE TREES AND FRESH CUT GRASS, HOT BATHS, PERFUME, FLIP FLOPS, OLD BLUE JEANS, MEN IN WIFE BEATER SHIRTS AND PRETTY TOENAILS
You Are Chardonnay
Fresh, spirited, and classic - you have many facets to your personality.
You can be sweet and light. Or deep and complex.
You have a little bit of something to offer everyone... no wonder you're so popular.
Approachable and never smug, you are easy to get to know (and love!).

Deep down you are: Dependable and modest

Your partying style: Understated and polite

Your company is enjoyed best with: Cold or wild meat What Kind of Wine Are You?
What Your Taste in Chocolate Says About You
You are unique, creative, and fascinating.
You don't do what's expected of you.
You go for what's unknown and uncharted.

You are mellow, spiritual, and philosophical.
You are a true humanitarian. You enjoy helping people.
Your heart can be too open at times. You sometimes over-extend yourself.

You love to be in love. You crave romance, whether you're single or not.
You feel lost when you don't feel passion... you need someone to adore. The Chocolate Oracle

I'd like to meet:

Interesting and articulate folks, free thinkers, and fellow hedonists(the more the merrier!) A generous person with to many couches. I would like to meet the person or person's who can find a cure for my allergy to gravity! I would like to meet a Penguin..I want to have happy feet..I would like to walk it out with him... "There is nothing too unimaginable to endure, and in my own way, I already know, that lying in wait for me, like some unavoidable trap, is happiness".~Gyuri of "Fateless" "LET US NOT USE BOMBS AND GUNS TO OVERCOME THE WORLD. LET US USE LOVE AND COMPASSION. PEACE BEGINS WITH A SMILE. SMILE FIVE TIMES A DAY AT SOMEONE YOU DON'T REALLY WANT TO SMILE AT AT ALL. DO IT FOR PEACE. LET NO ONE EVER COME TO YOU WITHOUT LEAVING BETTER AND HAPPIER. BE THE LIVING EXPRESSION OF GOD'S KINDNESS: KINDNESS IN YOUR FACE, KINDNESS IN YOUR EYES, KINDNESS IN YOUR SMILE." ~MOTHER TERESA~ . I would like to meet nice people, honest sincere not hateful judgemental types. The kind you would want to be friend with.

Music:


Movies:

Sex And The City, the movie. I would love to live in that world...to have a job writing, with a great apartment, and unlimited shoes...a boyfriend named Big, who is!...and great friends that I ate brunch with all the time....yep, that pretty much could be my life...

Television:

Into Showtimes Dexter, Weeds, The L Word, HBO's TrueBlood, Deadwood. You have to admit, Deadwood is a pretty cool show even though everyone speaks like Shakespeare and cusses like sailors. FoodNetwork Channel, The Girls Next Door, The O'Reilly Factor.~~~I CAN QUIT ANYTIME I WANT, REALLY!

Books:

Perhaps we are just part of someone else's dream...An illusion...Am I traversing the landscape of your mind? Or are you wandering through mine? I like to read: The truth is, I will cherish any book that makes me laugh or cry. To say that I am an emotional person is an understatement. Sometimes, being an emotional person is a handicap...but I am learning to accept that I feel deeply about most things...The alternative is to feel nothing and that is a dry grave; don't you agree?One of the sweetest short stories I have ever read, was "The Scarlet Ibis"...One of the funniest books ever written: Confederacy of Dunces

Heroes:

Webster defines hero as: A person of extreme admiration and devotion~ Therefore, I would have to say Firemen, Paramedics, The men and women of our U.S. Military, Dr. Stauber (orthopedic surgeon) he helped me walk again, Dr. Montgomery (my vascular surgeon he saved my leg,) Dr. Buchanan (he saved my life,) my alive date May 9,2006. Children who endured physical and sexual abuse and grow up to be decent, successful in whatever they do in life.
