About Me


This profile was edited with Thomas' Myspace Editor V3.2b
*** Howdy and welcome to MySpace. I am generally a quiet caring person and a very loyal friend. I would go out of my way to help a friend. My biggest flaw i guess is that i always tend to worry about everyone but myself. I like sincere and honest people. I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family. I also enjoy movies, music and art. I am mostly of Italian and French descent. I have one biological brother, 4 step sisters and 2 step brothers. I have a Mom and a Stepmom named Phyllis, go figure! My husband Richard and I have been together for the past 32 and a half years. He is a loving and caring person and he puts up with me for all these years. I couldn't ask for anything more! Well they say variety is the spice of life. And I've had plenty. I don't like your average boring everyday jobs. I started working at age 16 as a waitress at the boardwalk in N.J. I've been a cashier, worked in a nursing home, dry cleaners, waitress again, a snake tanner, a lead out for a Greyhound Park dog track, manager for Disabled American Vets thrift shop, sales girl for an antique mall, cashier again, a janitor and a housekeeper. Each was a learning experience. I have traveled form the east coast to the west coast and back a few times. I took a Greyhound from Phoenix, Az. to Upstate N.Y. one time. What a trip that was in more ways imaginable. My friend also drove me across country from Ca. to upstate N.Y. and back to visit my family who I miss terribly. What a ride, LOL! We have made a number of trips by motorcycle in our younger days. And we enjoyed exploring in N.M. The Land Of Enchantment. I have lived out west for the past thirty five years of my life. It is very different from the east coast. I can't really say one is better then the other. But they are definitely different! I have been blessed with three bffl and have made some wonderful new ones here on Myspace. I am a nice person but I don't tolerate rude people or liars. If you are reading my profile and looking for a date you have come to the wrong place. Thanks to all of my family and old and new friends I've made here. You're great and i am very glad to have you in my life! It's not what you have in your life it's who you have in your life! Life is a never ending journey. Who knows what tomorrow will bring. Live each day to the fullest as if it was your last!.. ***
