About me

Gender Female
Occupation irrelevent.
Location Jackson, MI, United States
Introduction Although I'm still young I've lived a full life. I found lasting happiness late, and negotiate the rough waters around it much better now than I did when I was younger. I caught glimpses and had moments, but I think I've hit my stride. I'm most happy around my husband Roger of course and our furry boys, and with my adorable, blue-eyed lovey-dovy niece, Ellie. I can be irascible and doting, often at the same time. I'm a loyal friend and take betrayal to heart, and am slow to heal from being hurt. But I feel with every fiber in my being and lavish affections on those closest to me. I'm also a huge animal lover and want to pet all the furry creatures in the world and make sure they are safe and happy. So while I might not always be realistic, I mean well and entertain myself fairly easily...oh yeah, and I have a Tarantino "Kill Bill" streak in me for revenge. I also share an interest with my sister in that we enjoy strange and disturbing documentaries. And I have an insatiable curiosity that has cost me about 8 lives now, if I'd been born a cat.
Interests I'm more curious that a cat which means I find lots of things fascinating and will devour what I find and move on to my next fancy...from investigating serial killers and events in history and biographies and learning how to cook different things and dog breeds - there's no method to my madness...
