About Me

Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. - Andy Dufresne (The Shawshank Redemption)
Have wonderful kids who keep me busy & focused on what really counts...love the old boring traditional activities the most with them...dinner at the table talking about their lives...hanging outside watching them ride bikes, skateboard...swim...My house has always been the "hang out" house for all the kids...My oldest just went to college & it so exciting to see him go experience the world....ahhh no worries...My oldest boys are adults & I can truly say I am proud of who they are...I have enjoyed every day of watching them grow up into really neat, kind, smart individuals...
Recently had a some life changing events now...I am just finding myself, wanting to just be me! Okay....so maybe I have found me...maybe it just took waking up...and realizing you can't spend your life being miserable...and you have to be true to what your core tells you is right...You cannot allow fear to stagnate your life...I have had my heartbroken & realized that you can't change or always fix others...you can only control yourself & how you react.....time heals & life is what you make of it...I set goals & enjoy the journey to reaching them...The best healer is keeping those you love & those that bring happiness to your life close at hand...that said...family & friends are the most IMPORTANT part of my life...I told someone the other day I just had to be true to myself...and that's where I am at...SAYING I SAY ALL THE TIME: IT IS WHAT IT IS... NO REGRETS JUST LESSONS LEARNED
Simple girl...tend to wear my heart on my sleeve...that's the romantic in me...anything I do I give it my all...FLY HIGHFALL HARD
