AGE ….. A lady never reveals her true age. Lets just say I’ve been around the block a time or three.
MARITIAL STATUS/FAMILY....... Married. Second go round. No kids by first
I have one son by my present hubby. He’s newly married…well… going on three years! OMG!! Where does the time go? They are now talking about starting a family!! I am about to jump out of my skin in anticipation! I also inherited a Stepson, and I have one precious granddaughter by him and his wife. Her name is Allison. She’s 8 going on 18. It’s been a rough summer for her.
She had a tethered spinal cord, and that just became a problem this year. She had to have spinal surgery. The first time, her sutures on the inside broke from her constant wretching, she was so sick from the anesthesia! She was in constant pain!
They finally got her back in for a second surgery to repair that damage! The second time she wasn’t sick and everything went like we praying for it to go the first time!!
Very much a test for all of us!! She just wanted to swim again, and she finally got to in late July!
WHICH OPPCLP MEMBER WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET OR WHICH ONES HAVE YOU ALREADY MET...Haven’t met any, but pheel like I know ‘em! I’d love to meet Phil and Laura. Axe, and T, Micky, Jeanette, XDX, and where da heck is ol’ Douglas these days??
Some of you newbies sound mighty nice too!! I love to hear what your lives are like.
HOW HAS OPPCLP ENRICHED YOUR LIFE?...... My interest in organic gardening is what brought me here, and I’ve learned a lot! My garden was great this year!
Now it’s an escape for me. My hubby doesn’t get on here, unless he’s on and I don’t know it, which is possible. He’s not very social for the most part. Keeps to his self a lot, so it’s fun for me to reach out and make some new friends without ever having to leave the house!!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING TO GROW....... Oh, I don’t know. I suppose if I was going to grow any one thing it would have to be tomatoes.
WHAT IS ONE ITEM YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT!?...... My Bible
ONE THING YOU WOULD OWN IF MONEY WAS NO OBJECT?..... A place in the country, and plenty of help to keep it nice.
IF YOU COULD GO ANY WHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE WOULD IT BE?... Hawaii again. I love it there.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE RECIPE... My Mom made up her own recipe for chocolate chip cookies, and won honorable mention from Betty Crocker while I was growing up.
I’d have to say that remains my favorite recipe of all time.
I also like the Hawaiian chicken she brought back from her visit to my cousin on Oahu, when we sent Mom and Daddy there for their 50th Anniversary.
I could post them, but won’t take the time here and now.
IF YOU WERE A COOKIE, WHAT KIND WOULD YOU BE... NOT one of my Mom’s famous cookies, or I’d be eaten immediately!
WHOS YOUR FAVORITE SPORTS TEAM AND ATHLETE... I leave the sports to my hubby. I have bigger fish to fry.
WHAT ARE SOME HOBBIES YOU HAVE?.... gardening, reading, singing, learning guitar, practicing keyboard, songwriting, writing..mostly in my journal for now.
Don’t even have time for all of that, and I still have to phind time to get on here once in awhile, and maybe watch a little TV..! Geesh!
WHAT ATTRACTED YOU AND KEPT YOU INTERESTED IN OPPCLP..?....The interest in organic gardening sucked me in, and the friendliness and expertise made me stay. Then I phound Tster in da slams and started havin’ too much phun!!
YOUR TURN ON FOODS...... Guacamole, or even just an avocado! In fact, anything Mexican except tamales!! Chocolate! Homemade chicken noodle soup. Homemade hot beef sandwich with plenty of rich brown gravy! Eggs over easy. Texas Red cake.
TURN OFF FOODS.... turnips
FAVORITE COLOR...... It changes every season. I just love lots of color.
HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH YOUR SCREEN NAME?..... It used to be my CB handle when my first husband and I were on the road. We traveled for 5 years playing lounges, back in the seventies. Talked to truckers all the time trying to stay safe on the highways. It always seemed to stimulate some good conversation.
I’ve been singing since before I could talk, and grew up knowing how to play a little piano. I took up drums so that we could get an agent and go on the road as a duo.
I started writing songs when he and I split up.
Started learning guitar about three years ago, but have very little time to devote to it, so I’m not very good.
What? That’s all you want to know??
