About Me

I guess that all depends on my mood, or the moon or something. I consider myself to be very down to earth and easy to get along with. I learn more about myself every day. My life is at a crossroads, and I am just rolling with the waves. I can say that I have no tolerance for ignorance or prejudice. That being said I find that when confronted with either one is when I am not so down to earth. I am into my children and my family....they are my life. Bartending full time and trying to be that best person that I can be. Lost my mom last March, that is the first time I have written that down. I miss her more than words can say...She was an angel on earth. I think I am finally exiting anger stage of the grieving process....it's just that there is a hole in my heart that will never be filled again. Since there is no one in the world like her, that is okay...I will have beautiful memories always. I dream of her at least once a week, and the dreams are so real, it is like I just got to hang out with her! (which in a way i have) Once sabrina starts school full time I will begin school myself....start the process to become a nurse...I can't wait! 'till then, I have Yoga, bike riding, cooking (thanks Trader Joe's) hiking (thanks Briones) camping (thanks Northern California) Family (I love each one of you so very much) Friends (I have the best) the ocean (namely Muir) This year I will do at least 3 things i have never done. Caving (I hear the Lava Tubes on the Oregon border are awesome...anyone want to go? (o:) River rafting and visit a foreign country, doesn't matter which one. Here's to the future!!!!;

Mostly Classics....Hitchcock was a genius.....I don't know....everything is all computers now...I have a hard time getting into it all.
