Don't wait for the storm to pass...learn to dance in the rain!

About Me

Divorced mother of two (13 and 16, yikes!), originally from a small farming community, college educated (who cares), moderately creative, enjoy reading, music, dogs, water, games, outdoor activities. Occasionally have great bursts of energy & feelings of accomplishment. Mostly I feel like I'm hanging on by my fingertips! I have a special someone who makes my heart smile.

Things I love: Laughing, thunderstorms, the smell of my banana bread, being in the sun, a sincere hug, firm handshakes, fresh salsa, old style malts, dancing, the sound of my kids giggling, making people smile, a good cry, watching my kids grow.

Things I can do without: War, having one of my kids hurt, unpaid bills, whining (especially when I do it), calloused feet, dirty floors, being belittled or patronized, laziness, insincerity, spelling errors, bullies, being around people who are ungrateful.
