Be kinder than is necessary, because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.....

About Me

I was born in Urmston,England, my family moved to Texas when I was two. I grew up in Wichita Falls Texas. I married Tommy in 1972. We had two beautiful girls that we raised in Bowie Texas. Now we live almost in the country, (the edge of Bellevue)and I love it. My family is the number one most important thing in my life. I have been married 35 years. I love my family, I love all animals, but mainly horses, dogs,& cats. One of my favorite things is puppy smell. To me it is a safe and comforting smell, for some reason. I feel all warm inside when I smell a puppy....... Also watching horses run and play in a pasture, I could watch them all day. I don't trust people that don't like animals. I like plants, indoors and out, flowers,the vege garden, herbs,and my goldfish and my pond.I love rocks and stones, I pick them up every where I go. Even brought home rocks from my trip to England. I Love to walk and run...exercise is good! I don't like mean, hateful people and I avoid them. I enjoy life! I am on My Space for friends, NOT for dating or meeting men. I am happy enough in my marriage. I don't even want to flirt, write to men, etc.....when they try that I know they have not even bothered to read my page.....
