~~~ I LOVE ALL MY MOVIES...... I HAVE OVER 4000 AT THIS TIME. I LOVE MOST OF THE OLD CLASSICS, BACK WHEN ACTORS ACTUALLY EARNED THEIR PAYCHECKS. I DON'T LIKE SAPPY LOVE STORIES OR THE SO-CALLED CHICK FLICKS. I DON'T CARE FOR TODAYS COMEDIES. THEY ARE JUST TOO RUDE, VULGAR AND DOWNRIGHT STUPID. I LIKE MOVIES WITH A GOOD STORY LINE, GOOD PLOT AND GOOD ACTING. I DON'T LIKE PREDICTABLE MOVIES. I LIKE TO TAKE A DAY ONCE IN A WHILE AND MOVIE MARATHON ALL BY MYSELF~~~~ THERE IS NO WAY I COULD LIST MY FAVES, AS I HAVE WAY TOO MANY~~~ :)
MUSIC
~~~ I LOVE MUSIC OF MOST KINDS. I DO NOT LIKE RAP OR HEAVY METAL AT ALL. IT'S WAY TO OBNOXIOUS AND HAS NO SOUL. THAT'S MY OPINION. BUT I CAN LISTEN TO JAZZ, OLD COUNTRY AND CLASSIC COUNTRY. I LIKE MUSIC FROM MY MOMS ERA AND MY GRANDMAS. I LIKE SWING, ROCK AND ROLL, EASY LISTENING. I LOVE SOOTHING INSTRUMENTALS, SOUNDS OF NATURE RECORDINGS AND SOME CLASSICAL. I AM VERY VERSATILE.... I CAN GO FROM LISTENING TO THE STATLER BROTHERS ONE MINUTE TO BILLY IDOL THE NEXT AND THEN MAYBE ON TO BARRY MANILOW, THEN OVER TO JAZZ..... IT ALL JUST DEPENDS UPON MY MOOD~~~~ :)
BOOKS
~~~ I LOVE TO READ, ALTHOUGH OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS I'VE NOT READ AS MUCH AS I LIKE.... I WILL READ JUST ABOUT ANYTHING. BUT I DO "NOT" LIKE ROMANCE STORIES AT ALL. I HAVE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF BOOKS THAT I CAN'T SEEM TO PART WITH, EVEN THOUGH I KNOW I SHOULD. I'VE BEEN COLLECTING MY BOOKS FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER. I WISH SOME OF MY KIDS OR GRANDKIDS HAD MY LOVE OF BOOKS, BUT THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THE CASE, SO I MAY BE DONATING THEM SOMEDAY TO A BOOK LOVER SUCH AS MYSELF~~~ :)
HOBBIES
~~~ READING, WRITING, HIKING, CAMPING, MOVIE MARATHONS, AND TAKING TONS OF PIX OF OUR WONDERFUL NATURAL WORLD AND PIX OF MY FAMILY HANGING OUT TOGETHER, SHOWING THE LOVE WE SHARE WITH EACH OTHER~~~ :)
VIDEOS
~~~ UNDER CONSTRUCTION~~~
MY BUCKET LIST
~~~ I WANT TO LEARN TO SURF AND I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO HIKE THE APPALACHIAN TRAIL FROM END TO END..... AND I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO CANOE THE MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI AND VISIT ALASKA. I'VE BEEN TO ALL THE STATES EXCEPT ALASKA AND HAWAII, BUT VISITING ALASKA IS MY BIGGEST DREAM~~~ :)
~~~ I AM A MOTHER OF FOUR.....WITH TWO DAUGHTERS AND TWO SONS. I HAVE TWO GRANDDAUGHTERS, FOUR GRANDSONS AND RECENTLY ACQUIRED THREE STEP-GRANDDAUGHTERS. I USED TO DRIVE BIG RIGS FROM 1989 TO ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. I AM KEEPING MY LICENSE ACTIVE JUST IN CASE I DECIDE TO GO OVER THE ROAD AGAIN. I LOVE THE GREAT OUTDOORS AND ALL OF OUR WONDERFUL ANIMAL KINGDOM. I LOVE PITBULLS AND HAVE BEEN A RESCUER OF PITS FOR MANY YEARS. I LOVE TRAVELING. I LOVE CAMPING AND I LOVE FAMILY GET TOGETHERS. AND........ I LOVE TAKING PICTURES OF ANYTHING OR ANYBODY THAT CATCHES MY EYE~~~ :)
TURN ON'S
~~~ I LOVE PEOPLE THAT LOVE LIFE AS MUCH AS I DO. ALSO PEOPLE THAT ARE INTO SAVING OUR WILDLIFE AND OUR NATURAL RESOURCES. I LOVE OUR BIG BEAUTIFUL UNIVERSE AND ESPECIALLY OUR GORGEOUS PLANET THAT IS SLOWLY BEING DESTROYED. BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WALKING ON A BEACH, HIKING THROUGH A FOREST OR ACROSS A DESERT. LISTENING TO THE SOUNDS OF NATURE~~~ :)
TURN OFF'S
~~~ I DO NOT LIKE ANY KIND OF FILTH OR OBSCENITIES OR MEANNESS, SO IF YOU FIT THAT BILL, PLEASE DON'T REQUEST ME. I'M NOT A PRUDE BY ANY MEANS, BUT I DON'T NEED OR WANT THAT SORT OF NEGATIVITY IN MY LIFE. MEAN PEOPLE ARE A BIG TURN OFF. THERE IS ALREADY TOO MUCH MEANNESS, RUDENESS AND NASTINESS IN OUR SOCIETY.... WE NEED TO GET IT CHANGED BACK TO THE WAY IT USED TO BE WHEN PEOPLE HAD MANNERS AND USED THEM. AND PEOPLE WERE MORE ACCEPTING OF EACH OTHER AND NOT SO JUDGEMENTAL. CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG???? (SORRY, I COULDN'T RESIST) ~~~ :)
