Never take life seriously....no one gets out alive anyway.

About Me

"If the music is too loud,
then you are too old."
Never take life seriously....
no one gets out alive anyway.
The mind is like a parachute,
it works best when it's open!
..
I'm crazy in love with my husband, Jeff. We've been married 12 years but have know each other for over 20 years. ♥
A very proud mother of two grown men (one a US Marine Gunnery Sergeant). But wait, even prouder (is that a word??) of my three granddaughters and two grandsons (one third grandson due in November); they all have stolen my heart.
I enjoy traveling and having fun where ever my travels take me.
I am a vegetarian, I consume dairy; if have you ever seen a cow that has not been milked, well it ain't pretty, then you would understand why I am not a vegan. I do NOT wear or use any animal products or products that have been tested on animals.


Save Our Planet - Recycle ~~ Eat No Meat
Spay and Neuter your Pets ~~ No Animal Testing


I am a Docent (Education Volunteer) at our local zoo teaching anyone who will listen, as well as classroom style, about conservation and species survival. I love to wander our zoo when I am not in a structured format and talk with the visitors to give them facts about the animals. At the end of the day when I leave the zoo and I have reached one person about how important species survival and conservation is then I feel good about what I have done.
My favorite animal is the elephants; it goes back to the 80s when Bubbles (an elephant) would come to KC for elephant rides and her caretaker and I became friends. He taught me alot about the animal and from that summer, I was hooked.

I love sports - all sports.

Miami Heat, NBA Champs and my favorite team. Coach Pat Riley - luv him all the way back to his Lakers' days. Could it be how he wears an Italian suit or that he looks like someone I married?

Kansas City Chiefs - Ahh, men in tight pants and let's not forget about the "all hands team".

Kansas City Royals - My boys of summer.

Kansas City Comets - Men in shorts!! Sadly, MISL Kansas City Comets club is inactive for the 2005-06 season.

Kansas City Wizards - More men in shorts.

NASCAR drivers:
Carl Edwards #99 and Clint Bowyer #07 - Local "fast" boys.
