    • About Me

      I live with my parents and I am an only child. I have no husband or kids., but I do have 2 horses and a Jack Russell Terrier named "Hollywood." I wouldn't trade her chunky butt 4 the world!! I am trying to cope with being "partially-seeing" nowadays because I have Glaucoma. I've always got my nose stuck in a [large print] book!!

      Reading large print books & magazines, watching TV, computer games on Pogo. B4 I got Glaucoma, I used to enjoy horseback riding, which I am hoping I can do after I recover from the Glaucoma, but that is probably a month or two or three down the road from now. Reading is my passion. I will read whatever I can get my hands on in large print from the library, but I especially adore the true-crime genre & Harlequin Romance novels...if anybody has any suggestions for a good read, please feel free to send me a private msg!! =]] [[likes]]: books, horses , dogs, anything pink, pens, glitter, Bath & Body Works, Pogo, 2nd hand clothing stores, talking & txting on my pink Blackberry cell phone, my Coach purse, staying home, etc. [[dislikes]]: racism, bigotry, wife-beaters, cheaters, liars, war, poverty, hunger, snakes, spiders, depression, alcohol, beets, & I hate it when it is cold outside!! "Dogs aren't my whole life; they make my life whole."
