I think it's in my basement... let me go upstairs and check.---M. C. Escher

About Me

I'm a mother of four sons, two grown (that would be Alan, age 23, and Corey, age 22) and two growing (my twins, Dillon & Kendall, age 10). I have one step-daughter who is married and, through her, one precious little grandson named Trevor. Trevor turned a year old in May!
Edgar, aka crazy slate blue-gray kitty, is the newest addition to the family, though he's been in it now for about 5.5 months. Edgar came to us after he and a littermate fell into a manhole and couldn't get out. They had been placed in a store manager's truck and he, upon finding them, tossed them out whereas they both fell (literally) into peril. My son and his cousin rescued both of the kittens and, well, the rest is history. Edgar has been like a God-send. He just recently has the procedure to, er, end his manhood but is coping well with it....haha. A baby pic of Edgar:

My Interests

My interests, outside my children of course, are art (especially painting, pen and ink, charcoal) and the "temporary" outlet I've found for it while a student in the RN program,...dolling.

My Dollz Site:

I'm an avid book reader with versatile interests in genres but must admit to having become smitten with Debbie Macomber. Every time I finish one of her books, I'm bereft. I love movies. Nothing like being off from work and catching a flick, though I have to watch the majority of them via DVD. Still, no complaints there. I still enjoy it immensely.

I'd like to meet:

Any of these dudes....haha
Clockwise from top: Liam Neeson, Matthew MacFadyen,Justin Chambers, Colin Firth, Cillian Murphy, Keith Urban....

Really, too numerous to name...even amongst my faves. I adore movies. I tend to go for either really crazy movies (ex. Zoolander, The Addams Family, Mel Brooks films), super dramatic (ex. Pride & Prejudice, The Color Purple, etc) or old classics (ex. They Drive By Night, Alice Adams, etc)
