About Me

Hey everybody! I'm Cindy, wife, mom of 3 (13 year old boy/girl twins and 9 year old little girl). I have a more than full time job as a project manager/systems analyst for a large computer services company. My kids are great! The twins just retired from competitive gymnastics, they flip all over the house, furniture, etc. My nine year old is artistic and loves to have a good time. Her favorite song is "Gimme Three Steps", I'm doing alright with this one! :)
Over two years ago, I met a group of people that were supporting Bo Bice on American idol. I've made lifelong friends and enjoy music like I never have. Good times!! I am also into fiber arts big time, quilting, sewing, knit, crochet, love to make a mess.
I also dabble playing piano and guitar, I really suck, but it's fun trying.
I'm always on a quest to balance body, mind and spirit, tough balancing act for sure.Here's some good places I like to go for help.
David Foster
A Gathering For Hope
Cheryl Richardson
This is from "Clapton, The Autobiography"
"Music will always find it's way to us, with or without business, politics, religion, or any other bullshit attached. Music survives everything, and like God it is always present. It needs no help, and suffers no hindrance. It has always found me, and with God's blessings and permission, it always will." Eric Clapton

My Interests

Music - I love listening to music, experiencing live music, and I dabble playing piano and guitar.

Sewing/Quilting - This is really where a passion and talent come together, I feel it's a part of my "calling". I'm involved with a group that makes gowns for premature babies and bereavement gowns. I have experience in my own life in both of these areas. And I know it's a way for me to serve families that have had experiences similar to mine.

I'd like to meet:

Oprah, Bono, Wayne Dyer, Eric Clapton

Music:

My favorite music is classic and southern rock. I love anything with a good guitar riff.
