I have retired!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

As of February 1, 2006, I am a genuine, retired person!!

(click here)

 

I worked as a Senior Secretary at a. research. and development corporation in East Tennessee for 25 years, after spending 23 years working for attorneys primarily, with a radio station manager, oil company partner, bank president, and hospital administrator thrown in. Grew up in Southern Illinois and lived in Florida for a couple of years. Moved to Tennessee in 1980. Tend to be a romantic and am very tender-hearted. Will cry at a hamster funeral or over any sad story. Believe in honesty, integrity, kindness, and kids. Won't tolerate dirty tricks, lies, or smart alecs. Manage to be happy most of the time and think tomorrow will be better. Believe everyone deserves a second chance, but expect them to make good use of it.
 
I am a warm weather person and look forward to spring and the good old summertime. "Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy." My dearest loves are my two sons and my precious little granddaughter.  Am an animal lover from 'way back, with dogs being my favorite. I like to dance and hike and just be outdoors. Adore the mountains and the ocean. Enjoy music, from country to classical. Have been known to go fishing. Love to spend time with my family.  Like to spend time helping out at my church, chatting with friends, and entertaining my pets. Can't stand Seinfeld or Drew Carey. Think Roseanne should be stranded on a desert island with Pee-Wee Herman. Will watch any Cary Grant or Bette Davis movie. Still think Paul Newman has the dreamiest blue eyes ever.

"How Could You?"

 

 

Princess Kozanna is a little Chihuahua who came from a puppy mill in East
Tennessee.  She is a very sweet little girl and is learning to be a happy puppy.

 

 
I have a mischievous little albino ferret who lives at my house. 
Her name is Cali Rose and you can see more pictures on her page.
 
 
 
 
I decided to raise some flowers in 2003 and was pretty successful.  Here are some pictures of my flowers and other miscellaneous stuff.







I raised some more
flowers in 2004.




 


My flowers struggled
in the heat in 2005,
but I enjoyed them
just the same!

 

 

It was very hot again in 2006, but my flowers managed to do pretty well.  I  had more time to spend with them since I retired!
