Personal Interests:
Music:
I like the old 70's, 80's, 90's classic rock, and some metal. I will listen to other music but I am more of a rock/metal fan. There was a survey on music that asked which music causes the biggest suicide rate, Rock, Metal, Rap, or Country. The answer was country music. I'm really not a huge fan of country or rap, or opera, or jazz. Bring me those old hair bands.
Books:
Favorite Places:
I love living in Oregon. I love the rivers, lakes and mountains & Crater Lake that is within an hour of my house.
I Want To See:
I would love to visit all of the states, and travel more. My sister is in Germany for 3 years, I have made it my goal to go there to visit her.
Hobbies:
I have a lot of hobbies, but little time to do them (finding this is an excuse, I need to make the time to do them). I want to change that in the upcoming New Year. This year I learned how to do stained glass (what a process). I like to cook, I cook almost daily, and I am great at it. I like anything around water. I like art and would like to learn how to draw more than stick figures; maybe learn to paint; or do pottery.
Activities:
I need to engage in more activities :O.
I love walking my dogs in the park or around the neighborhood. I love to river raft & one of my favorite memories is when I went canoeing in the dark with my husband & pelicans surrounded our canoe, the moon & stars were out, and I will never forget the peaceful feeling of that night. I like anything around water, when I was younger I loved waterskiing. I like to go to aqua jogging, and swimming.
Sports:
I am way too clumsy to participate in sports. When I find a sport I can engage in without breaking something, I will let you know.
Movies:
I love sci-fi, movies that are dark, or have messages, I like movies that make me laugh & love almost anything with Jack Nicholsen (One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, The Shining, As Good As It Gets, are my favorites of his). I like the movie "What Dreams May Come", probably because it has the message that love can endure through heaven & hell...kind of a summation of my relationship.
TV:
I haven't watched much t.v., when I do, I like to watch simplistic shows that don't tax my brain when I get home from work like arrested development, the family guy, king of the hill, my name is Earl...etc. Breaking Bad is a good show, I love Bryan Cranston in this role. It seems the history channel or some kind of informational show is on in the background a lot on the weekends.
Heroes:
My heroes are the people I support every day who have developmental disabilities. The struggles they go through make me realize how valuable life is, and how lucky I am to not have those struggles. My parents have always been my heroes. I lost my Dad this year, & I miss him every day!
I Want To Meet:

it's not lollygaggin' if you can use the time! what a great opportunity to get things done, to start the day with prayer or meditation, to organize yourself for the day. if you're up early, go for it! make the situation work for you. turn it into an opportunity. i know you can do it!
