About Me

A feisty redhead who loves God, my children, my grandson, my family, my friends (which are an extension of my family) and my career. At 44 years old, I have come to the conclusion that life is not a fairy tale and I am not Cinderella, however, that is okay, because I do not need prince charming to provide me a castle, I can provide for the dwarfs and I on my own. You can not change those around you, you can only change yourself and your outlook. It takes too much wasted energy to try and alter other people. So my journey begins.......A strong woman knows she has strength enough for the journey, but, a woman of strength knows that it is in the journey where she will become strong!!HOT Myspace Layouts

Heroes:

My daughter, My best friend, Who served in Iraq for a year, for our freedom. I praise God daily she came back safely! Few understand the closeness we share. My first born son, who fought an amazing battle and won. He now holds his first born in his arms, and for the first time in his life, he understands. My sister, Becky, who is my silent rock. As we travel this journey of life together, through laughter and tears, her unconditional love has helped me find the strengh within me. I hope that we always find the humor in this difficult journey because in he end, what's a little skunk spray. Oh, and the things we have learned a long the way. Can you say "window glazer"?
