About Me

A different job again. Working as a sales person for Security systems Company. And its so crazy, once you get job, you get a ton of job offers. Really crappy. I get to set my own hours and keep an eye on the kiddies. Soccer season started so its a mess driving the kids around all over the place, but its fun watching them learn the game that I believe they are all meant to play. Speaking of - I miss Shawn every day even more than the day before. I now know why people get addicted to substances to dull the pain of heartache or a loss or a traumatic event. I thought those people were weak or were just stupid, but the pain is real and its a sad way to cope. Just a little something I had to get off of my mind. We have had some ups and downs with all of these kids, but we are working it out and becoming a family is a tough business so our lives are not going as smooth as the Bradeys, but we are dedicated, so with support, love and trust, we are trying to build a great family unit come hell or high water. Which we have all been through some of both. I want my family to all truly love, teach them traditional family values and have each of them grow spiritually. This is what is deeply important to me.

My Interests

My family. Getting the house into a livable order. I have no idea how long that will take. Saving money for retirement which is not too far off for Brad. Buying a piece of property on the other side of the mountains and getting it ready for retirement time. Getting a law degree. Im interested in it, that does not mean it is going to happen.

I'd like to meet:

I dont want to meet anyone. People are so full of crap.
Myspace Layouts

Music:

Practially anything. Grew up with Country, Rap, Rock, everything and anything.

Movies:

I hate scary movies. If I believe the movie, it freaks me out and I would hang all over Shawn the rest of the night, I would even go to the bathroom with him so I wouldnt be alone. If I dont believe the movie could actually happen its fine. But since I dont know which one it will be, I just dont watch them. I would way rather watch a comedy.

Television:

Generally, I think everything is crap on tv. It is aimed at selling products to men. Which means too much boobs and butts on tv for my taste. I am not a prude in any sense of the word, but I dont like it for my kids. Dont get me wrong, I dont like it either, but for adults its totally different. I can tune it out, kids cant. They think it is real life and kids dont need to be exposed to that junk. I do watch the first 48. I am facinated by their jobs. I love Roseanne, because her life is typical and can be a peek into anyones livingroom. I also like the UFC, but not as much as I used to. I havent had time to watch it. Im usually asleep when it is on. I do watch some other comidies, Will and Grace, Frasier, Reno 911, The Family Guy, Talk Soup. Not a big fan of network tv. Like I said, all junk.

Books:

Been reading "The Road Less Traveled" Great book for a reminder on what true love is, traditional values and spiritual growth. Which is all what I wish for my family. Ive read it a couple times and when I get off track I refer back to this great book. Written by a rabi, none the less.

Heroes:

I have one hero. He squeezed so much into such a small amount of time. He worked all day and ALWAYS found time to call or visit his friends and family. When I was at work he would always send me emails and ask me how my day was going and if I was having a crappy day, he would tell me something crappy at his work and I would feel better. He made an effort to keep in touch with everyone he cared about. Anyone could call on him anytime. If you ever needed anything done, he would do it. If he said he was going to do something, he always would. He cared about everyone else more than he did himself and showed it everyday in his actions. He might have seemed like a big grumpy bear, but he was the sweetest, most tender-hearted person I have ever met. He intimidated everyone, but would never hurt anyone. (unless you were on the soccer field on the opposing team) Yes, just one hero. Everyday I wish I could be more like him.
