About Me


I got this snazzy layout from whateverlife.com!
"In the land of the blind, the man with one eye is king."I started life as a "home person", but looking at me now, that is definitely not the case. The sisters who seem they never come home are home, and the ones who it seems will never leave, are gone. Life works in mysterious ways. Holla to the gold-capped teeth gangsta-wangstas in full-length fake fur trench coats and the mullet-topped skoal-scar pocketed rednecks of Covington, Georgia (in which you can find both extremes...and all that in between). I am joining the Prinsendam to do a 68-day South America/Antarctica cruise followed by a 74-day Africa cruise. Yes, do the math, I'll be gone for nearly six months. I'm going to look like a diva with all my luggage, but hello, six months is a very long time. Hallie will be walking, talking, and teethed by the time I get back, and Katie will prolly be waddlin around. My mom will have halfway completed remodeling another room (or two) with beadboard, and my Dad will have put the carlot in its place. Laney will prolly have hitched the trailor hitch to her van and gotten Shiloh a playmate. Hopefully I won't miss out on too much else! :) It's great...you can write anything here, and it doesn't matter, b/c no one ever reads it. Ummm, yeah...anyhow..."Well now I'll be honest, I love Jesus, but I like a little drink."-88-year old Gladys on the Ellen DeGeneres ShowGet Your Own! | View Slideshow
