MY PRIORITIES:
My kids, my husband, ED; inspiration from doing the "Right" things, justice, playing the guitar(started playing in church at age 9 and discovered I could play by ear), my family. Gathering and finding hard-to-get information.
WORD I LOVE: "poignant".

Our American Soldiers! The 2007 CNN Heroes... the world really is a poignantly small place with good people all over the planet.
Anyone who can stand up for themselves with tact and good manners, eloquently or not because they care enough for themselves to make their mark, no matter how small or large. People with heart and integrity who've made this world a better place whatever their voice or means of communication: Myself. Nicole. Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, Robin Williams. Oprah Winfrey. Dr. Phil. Pope John Paul II. Pope Dominic. And one last thing...
Try this from Xerox.
If you highlight this web site, copy and paste it in the address bar, http://www.letssaythanks.com/ , you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!!
This is a great site. Please send a card. It is FREE and it only takes a second.

ABOUT ME...
I am 48 and the mother of two, Jake, age 11 and Alicia, age 9. The doctors said for years I couldn't have kids, but at age 36, God said different! My best friend is Nicole and we live States apart but are together always in the heart.
I am young at heart, spiritual, philisophical, hilarious and communications is my area of expertise and interest. I love to laugh from my toes and I love other people who laugh from their toes...it is my favorite sound in the world. Both of my kids laugh from down deep! I am funniest sarcastically, I have to admit.
I was adopted as an infant and in July 1992 I was reunited with my maternal birth family. I am researching my adoptive and birth families on ancestry.com and any other available resources. I've been a researcher and an intermediary for searches.
I graduated from PURDUE UNIVERSITY*** in Indiana in 1984 and want to go back after my kids are both in school full-time next year.(Note: I still want to go back to school and having them both in school has changed my life! I am adjusting and enjoying some time!)***UPDATE: I officially am enrolled in a Master of Science program in Business at the UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX on-line and my first class, starting 07/01/08, is Foundations of Problem-Based Learning. I DID IT! Class of 2010. UPDATE: I have finished my first year at UoP. Only one more to go!!
I have Multiple Sclerosis and I believe in Hope, Love, Faith and the ultimate power of all of them. I have many blessings in my life despite the obstacles of domestic violence in our past and I am on My Space to spend time with my nephew, network with others and talk about whatever.

I'd like to go to Buckingham Palace, Scotland, France and the Vatican City in Rome before I die. I'd like to meet and talk with articulate, intelligent and decent people in life.
