I love my life. I love the people in my life...my boyfriend, my family, and many wonderful friends. I love my cat Freckles...and my dog Bear who passed away...see my latest blog for a tribute to our dear friend. I enjoy my job and find fulfillment in it. My relationship with Jesus Christ is essential for my survival. I enjoy writing and I am very creative. I crochet, make jewelry, crafts of all kinds. I enjoy fooling with my myspace page and my facebook account...it is fun to play around with them when you are bored. I also love to cook and I am very good at it. I enjoy playing my guitar when no one else is around. I sometimes take it when I visit patients and children...but I am still alittle shy with it. Music HEALS me. I love to laugh and make others laugh. Laughter is good medicine. Life is short. I try to live each day to the fullest & look at the good side of things.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone that crosses my path. There is something to learn from every person you meet. The more I learn...the more I realize I have to learn. It has been my experience that we learn the most from those we are closest to. God puts people in our lives to help us grow.

Fundamentally, our Lord's message was Himself. He did not come merely to preach a Gospel; He himself is that Gospel. He did not come merely to give bread; He said, "I am the bread." He did not come merely to shed light; He said, "I am the light." He did not come merely to show the door; He said, "I am the door." He did not come merely to name a shepherd; He said, "I am the shepherd." He did not come merely to point the way; He said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life." --J. Sidlow Baxter

TO MY SISTER . . .I'm blessed to call you sister, I also call you friend; You've loved me unconditionally, And stood through thick and thin.You've shared my joys and sorrows, My laughter and my tears. You've been my inspiration, As we grew up through the years.When we were little children We laughed and played together; Then growing up you stood by me, Through good and stormy weather.There's something God has given us, That's more than family; He put a love for you down in the heart of me.

MY CAT...You're lovable, playful, intelligent, bright. Sleepy by day and active by night. Gracefully beautiful, impeccably groomed, no need for fine feathers, expensive perfumes.Sultry, provocative, seductive and more. You're the one my heart will always adore. When the day has been bad and life feels flat, I return home to my darling cat.Debbie Garbutt

When the earth was newly wrought, God made a wondrous creature. He gave its form most careful thought and studied every feature. He made it with a graceful tail with several rates of motion. So every wag could, without fail, register emotion.He made it with a varied bark that produces several tones. To frighten goblins in the dark or murmur over bones. He made a curious, moistened nose that probes in every niche, And for soothing children with a nudge, and a tongue that licks.He made it with such soulful eyes of deepest golden brown, That no caring man whose heart is wise, could turn its wishes down. He made it with a hardy coat that covers every bit, But made it soft beyond compare for when children play with it.He made it loyal, strong and smart, to serve as best it can, So it could always do its part as the ears and eyes of Man. He made it minus gear or cog, of His most precious blend, And so with love, God made the dog to be a man's best friend.
