My New Website.
I have tried several times to do a web page, seems like something always happens that I have to start over.   This time I had to start over because I can't figure how to get in to edit my last page. I am not crazy just a little messed up.

My page will cover my family, my dogs, the truck I just got rid of and my a job driving Tour Buses.   The last week in June 2000, I sold my truck.  I drove trucks for 34 1/2 years,  and finally got my Passenger License for buses, which I only drove about 2 months. I learned the hard way, by experiencing the do's and don'ts of driving a Bus.  I drove from Dallas, Texas to Orlando, Florida and took a Church group to Disney World.   Then I took a tour to Durango, Colorado to the Durango/Silverton narrow gauge railroad with a troup of Boy Scouts, also dropped the younger ones at their campsite, deep in the wilderness where people looked at the bus and you  just knew they were thinking "WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT HERE?" 
We were on two lane dirt roads in the camping area, looking for a certain camp ground and were given wrong directions. Then we took a Church group to Lansing, Michigan to the Michigan State Univerity for a Seminar. Most  seem to be School or Church groups. The only bad thing is you sit for days until they are ready to head back to Dallas.  I took a company group from Garland, Texas to Arlington, Texas to the Ranger's Baseball game.  They all got drunk and one got thrown in the ballpark jail..fighting with her boyfriend.  Then she was brought out for me to baby sit her.  Then she got in a fight with a co-worker in the back of the bus and I got an elbow in the ear trying to break it up.  No more bus driving for me.

Prissy was my registered floppy eared Mini Pinscher.   Prissy ran on the truck with me and I would have gone crazy without her.  We even had puppies February 29, Leap Year.  At 6AM that morning she woke me up in labor, we had 4 puppies in
30 minute intervals.  What fun we had raising the puppies in the truck, everywhere I moved there was a puppy.
Prissy is gone now as of April 16, 2007.   I just got me a Great Pyrenees female puppy, they are guard dogs for sheep, goats, cattle and horses against wild dogs and coyotes.  She was born November 11, 2007 and she eats like a horse.  I have an old female Greast Pyrenees that has adopted me till her owner gets out of jail, if he does.  Here is a picutre of them.

I haven't updated this page in several years.  9 years after my husband Frank died I started seeing another man, for 2 years it was fine but it just didn't work out.   I am too hard headed and independent and set in my ways.  Anyway I retired in 2000 and sold my truck, I had to have surgery for circulation to my legs again 3rd time.   I drove local for a company 2 different time, each time I hurt my shoulder first the left then the right shoulder, now waiting to have an operation on it.  I have a tear in the Rotary Cuff.   I have been living on 30 acres in East Texas and raising horses, last year we had 22 horses.  My daughter got sick 2 years ago and was on chemo and steroids for a Anurism in her brain, until they get a blood vessel problem fixed they can't operation.   Her medical problems made it so we had to sell some horses, we still have 7 or 8 we have to sell.     We have some good horses, 3 are studs.   You can check my daughters web page at

           UPDATE ON ME JANUARY 20, 2008
I had to put Prissy to Sleep April 16, 2007
She got very sick in Octobor 2006 and she just got worse and worse, I am a firm believer the bad pet food was the cause,
it has nearly killed me, I have joined the Pet Food Lawsuit not for money but SATISFACTION.  My Baby is gone.
