Michael Jackson - Heal The World

You left far too soon and you 'are' missed. Be happy Michael :) *********************************************************** ***** ***** A few things about me....hmmmm...let's see. It can be rather difficult writing about one's self because I'm sure I don't see me quite the same as others do, but I shall try. I'm a middle aged white witch who loves nature in all her many glorious forms. I grew up in the beautiful country-side of South-Western Ontario, moved to the lush orchards and vineyards of the Niagara Penninsulia in the mid-80's where I still live. I've been seperated from my 2nd husband over 6 years, not yet divorced, but one day plan to be. I have 2 wonderful sons, and 3 fabulous grandchildren with a new babe expected in Feb. of 2010. I live in an Art Deco, brown stone cottage complete with it's own resident spirit in the attic. I love to write, and have been a serious writer since 2001. I write adult Romanace/Drama, comedy, poetry, and short stories for children. A writer's world is a challenging---often hectic one, but it's also a great place to be, and one in which I enjoy every second. I write under the pen-name of Rusty Blackwood, and assorted poems and writings are listed here in my blog for anyone wishing to take time to read them. I enjoy music, and have quite an electic taste, although I'm not into Hip-Hop, or Rap. I'm also a musician/singer, and once worked proffessionally in the field. I play guitar, bass guitar, and some piano. Although now retired from that scene, I still take part in public concerts, jams, and get-to-gethers with fellow muscians, and old band mates. I love animals--my favourites are horses, dogs, cats, and pigs. Animals can bring a wonderous calm to one's life, and also a sense of being needed by souls who truly appreciate you. I love art. My favourite mediums are water-colour, pastels, pen&ink, charchol, and pencil sketch. I appreciate the French Impressionists particularly Monet. I'm not into Abstract, although I do admire the ability of those who paint it. I enjoy being by the water, boating, horseback riding, working in my gardens, and spending quiet moments by myself. The jack-lanterns are always lit here, and everyone is welcome :) *****
Sarah McLachlan - River
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7GOKzn3j_s


This haunting, and beautiful Joni Mitchell song is not entirely a Yuletide song in the way of traditional, but it is still in keeping with the season and has always been one of my all time favourites. It has been made even more touching by the incredible voice of Sarah McLachlan. Enjoy!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

***** *********************************************************** I always enjoy meeting interesting people regardless of how old, or young, they may be, but one person I would truly like to meet is 'Johnny Depp'. I find him a most interesting person --not to mention drop dead GORGEOUS! Hey I may be getting older but I'm not yet 'blind' haha!! But on a serious note I so admire his tremendous talents not only in front of the camera, but as an artist (his paintings equal the best there is) and as a musician (which I'm sure I'm attracted to because I am one),but his range as a performer never ceases to amaze and thrill me. I find each performance he gives is even better than the previous one, there is no limit to his range, and I truly believe he is the finest actor on the silver screen today :) On a lighter note my daughter-in-law once wrote a response in regards to a question such as this and she had said that if it were possible she'd like to meet herself 40 or 50 years from now, and I think that'd be so cool.I think I'd quite like to meet myself that way as well, although for me the time frame would have to be diminished to around 30 or 40 years.I don't know exactly what I'd have to say to me, but one thing's for sure it would be interesting--what's more the answer back definetly would be!
