I am here for Friends

About Me


Life is not a game. If you think it is, then please just find the back button and go. I love to laugh. I am shy but once I get to know you, I will probably shock you. I met my two best friends online a few years ago, and I consider myself very lucky to have found them. I have very few 'close' friends, as I tend to be fiercely loyal and have been stung one too many times. Betrayal sucks. Intelligence in a person is a great thing, but I don't mistake an education for intelligence. I am a peaceful soul, and usually the 'peacemaker' when situations go awry. I do not like conflict. I can handle it, but I don't enjoy it. Forward movement is important. I am a true friend. I say that with confidence in knowing that I have a good and giving heart, and with the knowledge that there is no place for manipulation of any kind in any friendship. I met the most wonderful guy in the world a couple years ago, and we were married on February 24th, 2007. In all honesty, I couldn't be happier. I don't know what I did to deserve him, but I'm not going to question it. I'm going to enjoy every single minute of our lives together! ~There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.~ Edith Wharton, Vesalius in Zante~ ~Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy. ~ Anne Frank (1929 - 1945), Diary of a Young Girl, 1952 ~ ~The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels. ~ Hazrat Inayat Khan ~ ~Change is the constant, the signal for rebirth, the egg of the phoenix. ~ Christina Baldwin~ ~Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power. ~ Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865) ~ ~One can acquire everything in solitude - except character. ~ Marie Henri Beyle (1783 - 1842)~ ~Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway. ~ John Wayne (1907 - 1979)~ ~It hurts to find out that what you wanted doesn't match what you dreamed it would be. ~ Randy K. Milholland, Something Positive Comic, 09-07-04~ ~If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance.~ George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)~ ~Family isn't about whose blood you have. It's about who you care about.~ Trey Parker and Matt Stone, South Park, Ike's Wee Wee, 1998~ ~And so you see my love it's time your ship has left my shores. And I could need you less, but I'll never need you anymore.~Tracey McCarthy~ ~Sometimes I'd look over there at Susan and she'd be lookin' like a pork chop. Then I'd look over at the other one and she'd be lookin' like a starvin' dog.~Sherry~ ~Oh my God! I think I'm engaged to a Mexican in Africa!~Susan~ ~I'm sorry for whatever happened that made you stop believing... but it's all real, and now I've got to go and make it all go away.~Desmond (LOST)~ ~I've found all I've waited for; and I could not ask for more~Edwin Mcain~ ~You've got me so upset I'm gonna have a freakin' stroke!~Baby Tran~ ~Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry~ ~Cancers, leos, witches Oh My~ Deb - Coven of 13~
"Sometimes in life, you find a special friend. Someone who changes your life just by being a part of it. Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop. Someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world. Someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it. This is forever friendship. When you're down and the world seems dark and empty, your forever friend lifts you up in spirit and makes that dark and empty world suddenly seem bright and full. Your forever friend gets you through the hard times, the sad times and the confused times. If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows. If you lose your way, your forever friend guides you and cheers you on. Your forever friend holds your hand and tells you that everything is going to be okay. And if you find such a friend, you feel happy and complete because you need not worry. You have a forever friend, and forever has no end." ---Unknown

My Interests

Hanging out with my kids and my husband, paranormal investigation, reading, and knitting. Quality time with my friends, my flower garden (it needs some serious attention right now), and occasionally sculpting or sketching.

Nice people. Mean people suck...

I'll listen to just about anything but rap. I'm kind of an 80's girl. Gimme some Ozzy though, and I'm happy every time. ;)

Television:

TLC, Court TV, or on occasion the Travel Channel (when they have their haunted/strange programs on). LOST is totally addictive, thank you Sherry.

Books:

Stephen King, Dean Koontz, John Paul Allen, numerous others, but those top my list! (And, yes,I'm being extremely lazy.)

Heroes:

My mom. 'Nuff said.

1st Anniversary!

Wow.  That went fast!  Well, it did and it didn't.  Though I can't believe a year has passed, some of the events seem so far back, if that makes sense.  So many things have changed...

The best book I've picked up in a looooong time.

When Scott and I got married, the JP handed us a print out from Amazon.com.  He told us that if we both read this book, he could pretty much guarantee a lifelong happy marriage.  That was al...
