Oh and I am a "real" southern gal...barefooted and all! *lol*. I live in Virginia now but was born in East Tenn. I lived there until I was two but go back as often as I can to visit my favorite cousin, Linda!
I spent most of my summers at our beach house with my wonderful parents and 2 sisters and a brother or in North Carolina with my grandparents. I also have two adopted beautiful teenager daughters! ***HELP*** And we thought the *terrible two's* were bad ? NOT!!!!
*S* I am a "soft hearted mom" so they get by with too much ! :)
But they are most definitely the joy of my life!

As far as interests go, I enjoy spending as much time as possible at the beach, making sandcastles, dancing under the moonbeams barefooted on the cool sand, reading , writing poetry and children short stories, working with abused children and *shopping*. I love to explore new places, expanding my mind (or at least try too!
Of course playing with Paint Shop Pro is my passion right now!
Basically, I just take life as a constant learning experience!
And I do take time for simple pleasures *s*

Being a true romantic, my passions include: scented candles, lavender roses, strawberries & chocolate, pearls, soft music, thunderstorms, falling snow, bubble baths, poetry, Boyd bears and bunny rabbits, astrology, and all things purple and pink. That's about all I can come up with at the moment.
I'll leave the rest to your imagination!!
Please......use it wisely!! *S*

Don't try to reason with your heart or feel with your mind
for just as the heart knows no logic...
the mind can't lead you to your soul
