About Me


Get your own countdown at BlingyBlob.comI like to think I'm an easy going person, I therefore generally enjoy like-minded people. I've found that with age life isn't as complicated as it seems to be or as others make it out to be.I have this dream of waking up somewhere and going out on my back porch where I have this fabulous view of distant mountains, their peaks covered still with bright, white snow. It's early morning and the season is spring my favorite season, there's a wooden, log type chair on this great expense of porch that seems to stretch quite a ways. I have a steaming cup of hot, just perked coffee (must be perked-LOL) and I sit down and slowly watch as the morning gently begins to unfold.I'm a dreamer, always have been, always will be, I've spent a great deal of my life living it the way "others" have wanted me to live it, and that's one of my greatest regrets, (along with a few others).Things that I'm grateful for my children and my Grandchildren, the sun, a blue sky, a wonderful, slow moving country ballard of love and loss and living.Things that "bug" me. People who hold grudges, people who think they are perfect, time wasters and in general others who are always wanting to keep moving, they can't set themselves down just for a moment and listen to the quiet.So that's generally me, oh I suppose there is a lot more that could be added to about me, but in general I've pretty much told you what I want you to know."SOMEHOW WE LEARN WHO WE REALLY ARE AND LIVE WITH THAT DECISION."

My Interests

My family, Reading, surfing the net, learning, music, history

I'd like to meet:

I suppose there are loads of people I could say but I guess in general it would be people from the past. An example would be Mary, Queen of Scots, Abraham Lincoln, Helen Keller, Martin Luther King Jr., Bobby Kenedy,Billy Connolly.

Music:

Country-my favourite artist-Tim McGraw-in my profile you'll find my favourite song of his "Live Like You Were Dying" Toby Keith, Alabama, Tammy Wynette, Alan Jackson, Vince Gill, and on and on and on.I also enjoy Frank Sinatra, Tony Benett, Bobby Darin, Sammy Davis Jr. The Big Band sounds of Tommy Dorsey, Glen Miller, etc. Liza Minelli, Judy Garland

Television:

Documentaries, some reality shows-especially Big Brother over here in the UK.

Books:

Anything Ann Rules writes. Anything Stephen King writes. Autobiographies in general

Heroes:

Anyone willing to live their life their way, Anyone willing to forgive, people who lean toward understanding.
