I love living here in Florida. I am thankful to be able to live here, as i have lived in Illinois, Kansas, California, and was born and raised in Oklahoma. I am a very caring woman who loves to cook, read good books, listen to music, watch movies with my family, celebrate life's special moments with our circle of friends here. I am a registered nurse and hope to go to work as a forensic nurse soon. My goal for the next year is to get fit and healthy. I am working out at the gym, am a Jenny Craig member all the way, and I am keeping a positive attitude. I think the one shining attribute that I have is that I am the kind of friend anyone would want; I know what it takes to be a good friend. Let's talk, go out for a good cup of coffee and a chat, and become friends, for life is too short to not have fun!

My Interests

Reading, shopping, gardening, doing lunch, going to the beach, doing little day trips in the area, watching good movies, playing darts, bicycling, swimming, walking, cooking, dancing, having fun with my peeps, researching my ancestry. Did I say shopping? lol

I'd like to meet:

All of my author friends on Myspace, to discuss books, life, having a good time, etc.! Also, there are lots of people (not only Celtic lol) in the Florida environment that I wouldn't mind sharing a Bailey's and coffee with. I would love to meet nice, honest people who aren't into drama or head games or looking for something free besides real friendship.

Music:

Oh I love most of it! well, except for rap, hip-hop, screaming noise or loud head-banging stuff. (geez, can you tell I am getting older? lol) As far as my favorite LIVE band, since my brother-in-law is not playing in a band anymore, I would definitely say BIG AL & THE KAHOLICS! Oh, my, if you are ever in the Jacksonville, FL area, you need to check those babies out! I love classic rock and roll, golden oldies, 80's, disco, country, gospel, some blues, some folk,some classical, Celtic, contemporary Christian. Music makes the world go around! My favorite groups are Heart, Electric Light Orchestra, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, Celtic Woman, Silly Wizard, and Rascal Flatts, and my favorite solo artists are Elton John, Bob Seger, James Taylor, Eric Clapton, Edwin McCain, Carrie Underwood, Sara Evans, Kenny Chesney, George Strait, Vince Gill, Joe Diffie, just to name a few. Let's not forget old Motown, though . . . I do love my Motown!

Movies:

Moonstruck, Napoleon Dynamite, Harry Potter movies, Lord of the Ring movies, Kate & Leopold, Love Actually, Bridget Jones' Diary 1 & 2(actually anything with Colin Firth in it), The Matchmaker, Bringing Down the House, Undercover Brother, Dazed and Confused, but don't like violent films with gratuitous bloodshed and/or shock value.

Television:

I totally love The Dog Whisperer (Cesar, our household LOVES you!), CSI (the original and Miami), The Thin Blue Line (british comedy), Keeping up Appearances (british comedy), all the true crime shows on A&E, Court TV, and Discovery Channel, and cooking shows on Food Network if I have the time.

Books:

My friend Gary Williams is at the top of my list for authors -- not only is he a talented writer, but he also is a wonderful person! Then after that, I would have to say is the one, the only, Anita Blake series (Laurell K. Hamilton), Outlander series (Diana Gabaldon), Sue Grafton alphabet series, Patricia Cornwell Kay Scarpetta books, Evelyn David, Madelyn Alt, Nora Roberts, John D. MacDonald mysteries (Travis McGee), lawyer thrillers, mysteries, Dorothea Benton Frank southern fiction, J.A. Jance mysteries, Charlaine Harris 'dead' series, Kelley Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld series, Luanne Rice (Luanne, you are the bomb, sweetie!), Tom Schreck, Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas series . . . the list goes on. I am meeting new authors every day here on Myspace, and may I say that every author that I have befriended or who has befriended me, they rock! I love the fact that I can read their books and actually talk to them and get to know them! And the Writer's Blog girls -- woohoo! A wonderful group of women authors that are very talented! I love to read, and if I could make money reading books, I would probably be a millionaire by now! Anyone need a reader for hire? lol ..

Heroes:

my husband, for loving me, taking care of me when I need taking care of, and for always looking out for my best interests. My daddy, may he rest in peace, for always doing whatever it took to take care of us and be our knight in shining armor. My mom, who has always been a wonderful parent; my sister Linda and brother-in-law David, for being wonderful marriage role models for our family; my sister Teresa, for all of the trials, tribulations and bad times she has had to go through, and she still has a good attitude! I have been blessed to have them in my life! Also, our armed forces for stepping up to the plate, not complaining, but fighting for us and/or being prepared to fight for us at a moment's notice! We are free because of them!
