My Interests

I just became a mommy again, to our 3rd boy in the family, our little monkey- Jackson, and though I am so excited about that--I am realizing that being a stay at home mom means that you have to work 24 hours a day now instead of only 8!!But there is no better way to spend my time, I am sure of it. Who needs the mortgage business when you have such cute little faces to look at every day! So I am pretty much on cloud nine lately....glad for my second chances, and unanswered prayers. Glad for the friends I have, and the friends I have yet to make. I am madly in love with my family. Ready for the rest of my life to come on and I am overjoyed that everything has turned out better than I ever dreamed. I didn't exactly turn out famous, you know---but I am a celebrity in many other ways that are far more lasting.

Before I built a wall I'd ask to know what I was walling in or walling out- and to whom I was like to give offense.
-Robert Frost (exert from one of my many favorites- "Mending Wall")

I'd like to meet:

Mr. Destiny. Mother Nature. Father Time. My Guardian angel. Jesus. Judas. Mary M. My father (dead or alive). To know where he is buried at least would be nice.Tsion Ben-Judah. Buck Williams. Judge Wapner. Tori Amos. The real Allison Dubois. I'd like to meet Raven Simone so my daughter could have her autograph. She loves her some Raven. Jack Bauer. Anyone from law and order-any version- but I love Jack the most from the original show. (Detective Stabler from SVU will do though!) George Bailey. Nostradamus. Stephen King. The Bee Charmer. Audrey Hepburn,or even better Eliza Dolittle AND Henry Higgins. Joel Osteen. Katie Couric-you go girl! Mariah- she's on fire. Chaucer. Frost. E.B.Browning. Lahaye and Jenkins. Harry Connick Jr. Brooke Sheilds..any and everyone with an opinion and a passion for life.

Music:

I generally love everything..., pop, jazz, christian, bluegrass, fun old skool hip hop, RnB, DnB,uplifting rap (there is such a thing, I promise), romantic 80's from back in the day, some punk, most reggaeton.....whatever is clever and has a good vibe. Lyrics are important to me too.....if you dont have anything coherent to say, then the beat is all you need... dont speak it if it doesn't really mean anything. Music doesn't always have to be terribly terribly deep (I mean I'm not trying to be a snob about it) and maybe my age is showing- but I am getting really sick of songs where all the "artist" does is yell "shake your ass" and "suck it, bitch", over and over again 20 different ways.......you feel me?

Movies:

Anything Audrey, or Katherine Hepburn. Anything Jimmy Stewart. If its black and white I probably have already seen it, and love it. If it aint black and white, then I go to the other extreme and indulge in zombie moves, 80's movies, and anything Adam Sandler-esque with just the right amount of stupid and funny. Oh yeah, and any movie that lets me stare at Brad Pitt or Ben Affleck for two hours or so, is A-okay by me, lol!

Television:



I know its bad for you- butI love TV and I have a favorite probably every night. (thank goodness for DVR) here is my long list: Anything on TCM or ACM, Heroes (I secretly am in love with the Petrelli brothers!), Grey's Anatomy, House, Law & Order SVU or plain ole L&O, CSI, Medium, Joel Osteen on Sunday mornings, History Channel stuff-love, love, love historical theology--whenever they have it, Mythbusters, Cold Case Files/Forensic stuff. I used to love 24 but this season is just plain awful.

Books:

WTEWYE for the next one coming, lol...yeah Mike and I are crazy i know. WTETFY for little Jackson. The Left Behind series- all of them, Zombie Survival Guide, Little Women, Lightning, The Stand, To Kill a Mockingbird, Arthur Spiderwicks Field Guide, Bridge to Teribithia, Cantebury Tales, Elegant Spirit by Sean Ferrer. Tuck Everlasting. A Million Little Pieces, though it was bs. I like plays too, Summer and Smoke (TW) and Caged Birds are really good

Heroes:

All children of divorce, custody battles, and single parent families. That they survive is not the miracle...but that they still smile and hope and find happiness...that is the most heroic thing of all.

the tale of three trees (this is soo sad!!)

THE TALE OF THREE TREES   Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods.They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first tree said, "Someday I hope to be a treasure chest.I could ...
