(this is still a work in progress, it takes me a while to open up and let people know who I am)

I'm trying to live in the present. I've been living in the past for way too long.

Way back in 1999 I lost my husband to Lung Cancer and it knocked me on my butt.
I'd like to say I have my act together but that wouldn't be the total truth. Not that I don't have many parts of it together I do, it's just that not all of me is put together. For so long I've been bound by having to be the responsible one that even when i'm supposed to be taking chances I still weigh all the pros and cons before I move (that usually isn't a long process i've gotten good at it). I resolved to do 3 things this year....get out of debt ( got pushed back because of daughter's wedding), start taking chances and try to get back to the weight I was between the kids.

I just got my Customs Broker license so I'm taking the year off from studying and just reading for pleasure. My goal for this year is to get out of debt so I can travel on my vacations in future years.

troubleshooting problems and listening.

My eyes and laugh.

If it's not horror I'm usually up to exploring the genre except for food. I'd have to say I'm a half way picky eater. Before I try anything new I have to have a lot of information. I don't have a favorite book ( i've always dreamed of becoming a librarian), my favorite movies are Witness andYours, mine and ours ( original not remake). I don't have one favorite show as my DVR will attest. ( not that I get to watch most of what I record) I like all music except for the older rap.

My kids, a car, access to the library, a home, the cell phone and pez. ( I would say coca cola but I had to give that up if I want to lose some weight)

right now how to get out of debt and where I'm going to take my first vacation. I've sacrificed a lot in the past 13 years. It's time to take back my life.

working. Yep I work nights five nights a week. However on a Saturday night I'm spending time at home or in the summer outside.

you'll find out after you get to know me.

you like someone responsible but sometimes quirky and seeing her at odd hours.
