    • About Me

      I have 2 young girls (Cala is 7 and Madi is 6). I was recently (7/09) diagnosed with CLEAR CELL SARCOMA, a very rare and terminal cancer. I got divorced in July of 08, its very friend orientated and was mutual. My Poppi lost his battle with pancreatic cancer on 8-19-08. I miss my rock and now must rely on only me. I am a blunt gal who won't shy away from telling friends if they are making bad choices. I stand up for whats right. I believe that laughter soothes the hurting soul, so I make sure I laugh and make others laugh every day.

      Ancient Egypt, poetry (writing and reading), horror novels & movies, sharks and other ocean creatures. I am a very eclectic personality! I hate romance movies and novels, and roses too. Weird for a girl, I know! I'm considered "one of the guys" with my pals and am proud of it! :-D
