About Me

My photo
UPDATED PROFILE: Well I really am a stay-at-home mom now except I am only staying at home with my doggies, Boo and Puppie! They do love me so. They do not ask for very much other than me to feed them and take them on an occasional walk and a pat on the head. I, being the exceptional mom that I am, do sing and dance for them, and they adore me for that. So, life is good in my empty nest. I miss my baby girls ever so much, but I plan to enjoy the next 20+ good years! Old Profile: I am a stay-home mom. I love running my children to all of their extra curricula activities. I love to cook and shop for antiques. I love my girls, my dogs and my happy home! No, that is my make-belief life! I have been teaching school for 29 years. I hope to retire in one more year, but I have two beautiful daughters who think they need a lot of stuff to survive. I would not change a thing. My road has been a bumpy one but it has taken me to a wonderful place!

Sea Otters

Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they won't drift away from each other.
