It's time to rethink life.

About Me

I'm a Mom of 3 amazing children - entering a whole new realm of life. My youngest son just graduated - and for some reason I don't feel like a Mom anymore. Strange. So - to keep myself busy I watch a lot of sports. I love football - college and pro - (Hook em Horns, Roll Tide and Goooo Cowboys!), but baseball is my passion. I have been a Cubs fan for over 20 years - and that should speak something about my patience and loyalty. I love ESPN, pedicures, tanning - and anything pink! I play keyboard and love to sing - and I'm a card-carrying Parrothead. Oh - and I happen to have the cutest grandkids out there. Sorry - but that's just the way it is.

My Interests

Hmm..I covered this in the "all about me" section - I do love sports - some movies, although it's hard for me to actually sit down long enough to watch any. Shopping.....water stuff....camping.

I'd like to meet:


Oh...so many people - yet really no one at all. Here to make new friends - in person or chat friends. I'm open.

Music:

I like most kinds - especially country....hard to handle rap, but sometimes I try.

Movies:

New favorite movie is Walk the Line - also love Remember the Titans, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and The Wedding Date

Television:

Don't watch a lot of it - except baseball. I'm always up for a Friends re-run, though!

Books:

I don't read much - but I need to - and purpose to - spend a lot more time in the Bible.

Heroes:

My kids - I have amazing children - each in their own wonderful way.

My Blog

Sometimes....

Sometimes I wonder what life would have been like had I made different choices than I made. I know you're not suppose to do that - but am I the only one? I absolutely know there are decisions that wou...

Friends.....

It's kind of a sad and disappointing moment in life when you realize you have no friends. I mean - I have people in my life that I care about greatly - and of course I consider each of my kids a frien...

Update Time?

Unfortunately I really don't have one. Rachal has been married for almost two months, and while I still ask her if she's ready to come home, I'm really proud of her and know that she and Jeff are happ...

Thoughts from a Mom...

So I wonder how many people are tired of hearing me whine about the whole empty nest thing? Probably most everyone who is around me more than 5 minutes - because if you ARE around me more than 5 minut...

The Countdown begins...

Almost February 24th - and that's the day I send off another child. I tried to get her to come home after her wedding, but the look she gave me was a definite no. I'm excited for her. Brent and Jennif...

Who would have thought???

1st of September - and my Cubbies are in first place! That usually doesn't happen after about May or so. And who would have ever thought that the Cubs would be fighting it out with the BREWERS??? Let ...

2007 -

Wow - I can't believe it's 2007 - I'll be honest, I never thought the world would make it this far. This should be an interesting, if not frightening, year. As I go into the year, I realize some thing...

Strange, strange Christmas.....

It's been an odd Christmas. I didn't go home this year - probably the first time in my life I didn't spend Christmas with my Mom - it was hard not to see her as well as my sisters. Even harder to not ...

Life is Crazy....

Just when it seems things are settling down - they don't. Life is busy - I know it's getting close - I can tell - the world is nuts. If you're reading this, and you're not a Christian - now might be a...
