I am here for Friends

About Me

The only thing anyone needs to know about me is that I love life...I really enjoy living close to the beach. My kids, my boyfriend, my family and friends mean everything to me. I want to keep on doing whatever it is that I've been doing for another 45 years...and I'd love to learn some new things along the way. I read voraciously and it matters not whether it's Shakespeare or the funnies...diversity is what makes it interesting...life, that is! I'm still waiting for my close up Mr. Da'Ville. I also really love my job and taking vacations in Disney World~Yeah!~

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

up with all of my old friends and acquaintances along the way...just to see how everyone is doing and if they're happy...I've already met "the one" so...it's just a matter of keeping on keeping on...enjoying life and living it to the fullest...experimenting with any/all new experiences...it's very cool to have someone who lets you be you...and I have found that in Duke! I'd like to hang out with my twin sister a little more than we get to...it's like sometimes my other half is missing from the equation...but then, I'm sure we all want something! If we didn't there would be nothing to look forward to! Smile! And a completely unexpected shout out to all of you Marylanders (who are all over the globe now) that I've found again on MySpace, GMail, AOL & Classmates.com! And now FACEBOOK!

Let me just say thank you to all the drunk and/or hungover help I had moving.  All borrowed vehicles and backs were very much appreciated.  I can never repay you all for your help and kindne...

DESIDERATA

Go placidly amid the noise and haste and remember what peace there may be in silence.  As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.  Speak your truth quietly and c...

What sustains me, Destroys me!

I'm getting my dog back today, but only to have to find a home for him elsewhere.  I love him dearly but am unable to care for him...he weighs about 20 lbs. and is quite strong for a small dog......

how pop culture becomes the backbone of your life

I've recently discovered how much I rely on pop culture to explain the way I feel about everything from the taste of my morning cup of coffee,  to my prayers at the end of any given day. We descr...
