About Me:
I'm a beautiful, thin 20 something chick trapped in an old, fat body!! My husband of 27 years & I live in the semi country with 2 horses, 6 dogs(all labradors,4 black, 2 chocolate) 7 cats(actually, 2 of them are kittens), various chickens, ducks, cockatiels, an African Grey parrot(who's not too sure if she is a dog, cat, bird or a person!),aquariums with African Cichlids & some freshwater sharks & a couple hives of bees!! Hopefully I will add more hives this spring! Did I forget anyone?? Oh yeah, I think we have some pigeons flying around out there!
I have 7 children of which I only had to give birth to the oldest!!! 2 darlin grandsons...Strange things tend to happen to me, been told more than once that I was weird..whatever THAT means!!LOL!!!!! We get a lot of varmints(skunks,snakes!) that I can't kill so I catch the snakes, take them off somewhere(to the local baptists who are turning my little area into a city!)& I have been known to beat skunks senseless & chunk em over the fence!! I am probably one of the most happily married women there is...when I'm not mad at him for something!! My poor husband is almost a Saint..I've put him thru a LOT the last few years with several surgeries & stuff!! & now with the BIG Pause(MENOPAUSE) lurking around I'm wonderful to live with!!!LOL!!!
We are BIG into NFL ( Go Dallas Cowboys!!!) & the NHL (Go Dallas Stars!!) & Arena Football(Go Dallas Desperadoes!!); If I could only win the lottery I would be REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY happy!!!

    Readers Rule!
    Without readers, authors would be talking to walls.
    (I was born in Grand Prairie, next to the holy ground of Arlington...)

    LOL!! That's right..if nobody read there wouldn't be a need for ya'll writers!!! I actually lived in Grand Prairie for a year or so in 1979 or threabouts!! My sister had an out of state boyfriend & the first time he called after we moved there he wanted to know if it was!!(a Grand prairie!!), but alas no, all the cotton fields were all plowed under & it's a big city now!!!
