Sandy~ a little bit of me...

About Me

I am 51 now, old enough to be wise, young enough to still have fun. I have raised 4 children & have a granddaughter too. I hope to see Hawaii & Grand Canyon some day. I have been to Elvis home in Memphis & I've seen Washington DC. I have lived in Germany & Okinawa when I was married to the father of my children.
There is NOTHING in this world as important to me as my family. I lost my daughter when she was 19 and the world will never see as bright a sunshine in the sky or as lovely a spring day for me now... as when she was alive. I miss her more than most folks know, but I also work hard to smile.. to love.. and to still find happiness today.
I love the many people I have met since I first learned how to use the internet. I have MANY GOOD friends here!

I write poetry (mostly about my daugther) & I find it has been very good therapy. I always loved poetry. Now..it just has more meaning to me. Even Karen wrote some poems. She was all that I was.. & a little bit extra "mixed in". Someday, I plan to publish a book with both her & my poems and her story too.
If you would care to know about her.. here is a page I made for her 23rd birthday on Jan 3rd, 2006

I have also created a My Space account on her behalf in Memory of her, but hope it to be more and ask her friends & our family to message the things they remembered & loved about her so I can add them in her Blog for all to enjoy. This account will take replace her yearly Birthday Web Page. I hope you get time to look at Karen's account. She can be found in my "Friends" on this profile.

Poem - Her Name Is ... Wind

  Her Name Is ... Wind   A brutal lady to be reckoned with, as she beckons to all things not securely anchored or tethered to the ground.   A Hussy to push you off your mark, or pull...
