Spending time with my Jack Russell, Cody...he's my little man, Horses, Outdoor Adventures, Entrepreneurship, my Business "Farm Fashions" and planning more business endeavors, Health and Fitness, Motivational Speakers, Designing pet clothes, collars and accessories, Designing women's tee's and miscellaneous accessories, Writing, Safety of animals and their rights. And it took me over 4 years of recognizing my pain, to begin healing, accepting and repairing some broken pieces I had caused as a result of my dad's passing from emphysema in 2000, but now that I am stronger and continue to grow(growing older seems to help), I am able to spread the word of the dangers of smoking and the HUGE devastating impact that the results of smoking can have on friends, family & loved ones. The passing of my dad was literally life changing for not only me, but for those in my life. Even though my dad loved me enough to quit smoking when I came along, it was just too late. But that doesn’t mean it’s too late for you! If you care, you can fight the urge! The human body is the most powerful machine on the planet…it does not need poisonous laced chemicals to run! You can visit www.thetruth.com for facts and miscellaneous info...I’m not a professional, but of course, feel free to contact me for any needed support,etc. If you're like me & become lost after the death of a parent...It may take you sometime to find yourself & realize that you’re in your heart, body & soul somewhere! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ If I can accept my father literally dying in my arms as a blessing, I just may have the words that you need to hear.
Music
..
Pretty much a Smorgus Board * I like everything from Classical to Rock and just about everything else in between. And believe it or not, Oldies, from the 20-50's are at the top of the list for me.
Movies
Scary, but not-2-gory scary…more like mental scary...like The Grudge...this movie had me freaked for weeks…kept hearing that dang rattle sound… comedies, non-subtitle martial arts movies, old black and whites...I like to be taken back in time to the era my mom and dad grew up in...1928(mom) and 1933(dad), really a bunch more, but I'm drawing a blank...
Television
..
The Big Idea, Life Among the Dead with Lisa Williams, Cross Country with John Edwards, Paranormal State...all paranormal / supernatural programs, RFD-TV programs, Invention Nation, How Do They Do It?, CSI, NCSI, Prison Break, Life, Journeyman, Survivor, Big Brother, most detective programs, not big on sports tv other than Boxing and Martial Arts, American Gladiators...
Books
..
Death "The Final Stage of Growth" (After my dad passed, this book was given to me by someone very special to me. It took me a few years to bring myself to read it, but between this book, counseling & growing, my healing slowly began.), Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross "On Life After Death", The Purpose Driven Life, Kendra Todd's "Risk & Grow Rich", Donald Trump "Real Estate 101", Allison DuBois's Secrets of the Monarch: What the Dead Can Teach Us About Living a Better Life, Sylvia Browne(pick one), Motivational / Self Help books, Emily Dickinson Collected Poems, all of Elaine Viets books(her books are fun to read), Dr. Wayne Dyer "The Power of Intention"...

It is the most important of all virtues…because without courage, you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. You can’t be open, or fair, or kind, or generous, or merciful, or just, or honest, or loving, or grow, or learn, or TRULY be a believer…

******* My shadow-cast is dim *******
I can still hear the sound of your last breath as I laid next to you as you passed away. You gazed into my eyes and accepted my offering to bring with you a piece of my soul.
Loosing you meant loosing a part of me as well. We were each other’s shadows who together, took on the world in full force.
Everyone in town knew that if Jim was there, so was Ang… if Ang was there, so was Jim.
My shadow became dim without your physical self by my side, but I now have a shadow of wings as you glide by my side.
I feel you with me and know you’re there, as I feel you cast your crisp cool air.
You told me on your deathbed that you were always proud of me. I’m proud of you too dad, for what you instilled in me!
I’ll continue to make you proud. And when I ride in OUR honor, I’ll know you’re in the crowd, as always, cheering me on.
I love & miss yuh pop! xo'sss Pockets
