About me




Hello, and welcome to my bio page. I realized that you all probably had the chance to read my Story, but you didn't really know much about the real me. So I decided to set myself up a bio page.

I am a mom of 3 beautiful children! I am married to the most wonderful man I have ever met in my entire life, well with the exception of my Dad! I grew up in Oak harbor Ohio, and made a life for myself in Port Clinton, Ohio for about 9 years. I then moved to Greenfield, In, and lived there for 7 years.

After my first husband left, I and my children moved to Texas. And I have been here ever since. I love Texas, and I can't see myself leaving here anytime soon! It is absolutely gorgeous here in the Fall and spring.

I have many hobbies in which I enjoy immensely. Web page design, writing my poetry, designing web graphics, collecting shot glasses, I love football, the Dallas Cowboys of course, and one of the most important, spending time with my family. I was also a small hobby breeder of Chinchillas, something I had been striving towards for nearly 6 years, but now we no longer breed chinchillas, we quit in 2003, and have only a few chinchillas as pets. It has been an incredible adventure, and very rewarding.

I started really designing web pages in 1998, and it has been quite a ride. I taught my self HTML, and have enjoyed it ever since. As far as poetry goes, I have been writing since in my teenage years, and I even draw pretty well, but the poetry is the stronger of the two. Graphics design, is a very strong hobby of mine. I'd be lost without my Paint Shop Pro. I learn something new everyday. I have been collecting shot glasses for quite some time now. I have a fairly decent collection of them, but always look for the unusual ones. Spending time with my family is by far the most important. We spend time playing outside, going shopping, bike riding, walks, and we like to go to the park, and also we play football.

Another big part of our lives is all of our pets. We have many pets in our household, a lab/heeler mix named Dixie, a Great Pyrenese mix named Addison, a Beagle/chihaua mix named Zoey, a German Shephard name Jadyn, and 2 puppies name Max & Gracie. 1 cat named Bandit, 1 wonderful ferret named Blaze, and have 4 chinchillas, named Bonnie, Nickie, Raistlin, and Dylan. A squirrel named Melodee, a bunny named Marley, and 2 hermit crabs named Cling & Peepers. Yeah lots of pets, and we love all of them very much.

My likes:
Honesty, romance, people with good, true, hearts. Good books and movies. I like just about all music except for opera.

The way a person approaches me tells me alot about the person. If they can offer their hearts, honesty, and genuine love of life, then I usually can open up to them. And we can have a wonderful friendship. If they are in the mode of thinking "Woe is me" geezy peezy forget it....they gotta try and help themselves a little bit, before I put myself out there.

I am all for romance. Quiet time spent together or taking walks together. I want the man in life to be able to cuddle up with me, or a man who can be "spur of the moment". I like a man who can tell me everything, or one who can actually cry, and not be embarrassed by it. I also like surprises, whether it be with flowers or a day planned out just for he and I.

I guess as far people with a heart goes, they are few and far between as far as I am concerned, but if you are lucky enough to make a friend, who puts others first, and geniunely cares, then you are very lucky to find such a person. I figure if they can wear their hearts on their sleeves as I do, then they have a pretty good heart. No, just kidding on that one.

My dislikes:
Liars, organized religion, activists and heartless people.

I absolutely can't tolerate someone who lies. I have been involved with several people who have lied to me, and the end result would be a broken heart or some kind of loss. So now if someone lies to me, and they can't come clean without me finding out first, then I know better than to stick around. I try and walk away instead.

Religion can be good, as long as you don't take it to extremes, just my opinion. Sure, share the word of God, but be respectful enough to walk away if someone says they have their own beliefs or their own religion. I am my own person, I know what I believe, so I don't need someone else telling me how to worship, or what to believe. That is decided between the person themselves, and God.

Heartless people really turn my stomache. People like those who are out only for themselves, and they will go to any length to get what they want. Those who are abusers of both human and animal. The list goes on and on, and I really do not have the room on this page to list all those I feel in the class of "heartless".

I really can't take some of the activists there are in the world, some do not know how to handle themselves tactfully, whether it be people or animal related. Someone always seems to get hurt in the end, and in those cases the activists go along saying "Oh well it was all for our cause". Wait a minute-- You blew up a building and several died, and that is ok for your cause? I don't think so! Or you went to a laboratory and released all the animals into the world, so now they will all die anyway, but it ok because it was for a cause? No way, I don't think so. I believe that it is important to have animal shelters, and to have spay and neuter programs, and foster programs, but it is not ok to hurt people or animals just in support of a cause. It is ok to believe in something, just don't take it to the point of hurting someone or something in the process.

Well not much more to tell you about myself, and my family. But enough for you to get an idea of where I am today in my life. If you would like to read a little more about my life, then visit My Story. Thanks so much for stopping by. :)
