About Me

'Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit.'
I am a 3 time cancer survivor, as well as a Service Connected Disabled Veteran (US Army 6 years). I am a member of the DAV http://www.dav.org/
As well as a member of the American Legion http://www.legion.org/homepage.phpMy Husband, Oldhippy68, is my 3rd husband, He has had a total of 30 inches of intestine removed due to Crohn's disease (2 surgeries). I am adopting my Husbands Boys that have been living with my Husband and I for 10 years, after my Husbands X stabbed him the in the stomach, in front of the boys. One needs a heart transplant (his heart is functioning at 30% and has made me a Grandmother to a beutiful baby boy), One is Bipolar, and one has post traumatic stress and Oppositional defiant disorder. My son will be 28 this year, and has made me a grandmother twice! I have tried to teach my kids, that nothing is so bad, that you can not over come it. Laughter goes a long way to making yourself, and those around you feel better. I refuse to go to bed angry, and I refuse to wake up angry. I try and make the most out of every day (including taking time to stop and smell the roses). I love to sweepstake! Click here to come win with me! I am in my late forty's, and have done so much...I lived in Europe, I sang in a all girl heavy metal band, I play Cello and Bass (electric and stand up), I love my kids, I have a great Husband...and you know, I don't think I would have done so much if I had not had cancer. My personal philosophy about life reflects the Tim McGraw song Live like youre dying to quote the song; Like tomorrow was a gift, And you got eternity, To think about what youd do with it. An' what did you do with it? An' what can I do with it? An' what would I do with it? P.S. One of my few remaining goals in life, is to learn to surf! My friends list is randomized, so if you do not see your name in my top 40, refresh the page until you do... Click here to check out my website of screensavers created by me!
