About me

Gender Female
Location By The Lake, OR
Introduction I came to this question and I really had to think about it. I mean, it is like one of those exercises in a College Freshman writing class. Tell us about yourself, but you can’t say you are a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister. But, I am all of those things and more, I am a grandmother, a niece, a friend. It’s hard to define yourself and not use all words that make you who you are. So, for a lack of a better description I am married (for 20 years), I am the mother of four gorgeous daughters, each with their own distinct personality and all talented and creative. I am a sister to a big brood, I am the grandmother or, if you ask my grandchildren, I am Ranny, Nana, NeeNee, Mimi, to six of the most beautiful babies in this entire world. After putting those words to paper I feel kinda old, but for BLOGS sake I am a mere 45. I am a niece to my favorite Auntie Mo, I still have the same best friend I have had all of my life and even though we seem way too busy most of the time I love my Delly and I am pretty sure she love me! For the rest of the story stay tuned!
Interests Rubber Stamping Baby, as my friend Cambria would say!!! I am realtively new to this creative release, but I am lovin' it. I love cooking BIG dinners and having lots of people around my table and spilling out into the other rooms of the house. The chaos, the love and the food all make for a great day! I love to camp, in big groups and spur of the momement road trips with my husband. The best camping trip ever. Four days on the Olympic Penninsula with nothing but a tent, a bbq, an ice chest and my husband. Yep, the best!I love, love, love the country life, living in the middle of nowhere and nights so dark that the stars in the sky are free to light up the path.
Favorite Movies Fiddler on the Roof, Pretty Woman and just beacause I watched it with my husband and it was so fun to watch him laugh until the tears saturated his laugh lines, Taldega Nights, the Ballad of Ricky Bobby! Shake-n-Bake Baby, Shake-n-Bake!
Favorite Music I like most music, but I like music that is kind of raw, acoustic, blusey and about the real things in life.
Favorite Books the Bible, is the best book on the planet and after that the most beguiling book I have ever read, no matter how much of it was truth and how much of it was made up was A Million Little Peices, by James Frey. I learned something so valuable from this book, and even though it may sound trite it changed my life and the way I understand some very important events.
