About me:

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Please visit my Leona's Legend Live Journal website and/or my Facebook page (Deanna Dee Taylor). I will no longer be using MS as my major networking tool. There are too many pop-ups, ads and risks to my computer as a result of all of those things! Pleaes stay in touch with me through my other pages!

I'm a Grandma!

Baby Gregory, 1 year old, December 2007

Baby Kordell, 3 days old, born February 27, 2008

I am Deanna Taylor. My nick-name is actually "Dee-Dee". Some people just call me "Dee". I like to sometimes use my alias "leonalunarlight". "Leona" because I am a Leo and "Lunarlight" because I like the light of moon - especially on clear nights when I am camping in the desert!

My "religion" is life - nature, our planet and all life on it. I do not subscribe to any one organized religion. I have many friends from all walks of life - including agnostics, mormons, catholics, atheists, jews, buddhists, episcopals, muslims and sik's, to name a few.

I live in West Jordan, Utah and am originally from Maryland. I teach at a progressive public charter school called City Academy. I am the Director of Educational Support Services, Service Learning Coordinator and I teach music classes. I have a BS in music education and a MS in curriculum and instruction. I have endorsements in music and special education. I have taught in Maryland, Washington State and in Utah.

I am married to a wonderful man, Tom King, who is the best teacher in my life! We do almost everything together! View photos of our hiking and travel adventures.We have four wonderful children, ages 18 - 29. We also have one precious grandson, "Little Greg", the son of our oldest son, Gregory. Here is my grandparenting adventures web page.Together Tom and I have formed the non-profit organization, Blue Sky Insitute.

Most of my family lives in Maryland. I have two brothers and one sister, all who live in Maryland along with my parents. I am the oldest. Two of our children also live in Maryland.

I love to crochet and sew in my spare time! I have a website called Blue Sky Originals with photos of some of my past projects.

I also love sunflowers and have a website devoted to that called Sunflower Spot.

Myspace Contact Tables

Who I'd like to meet:
People passionate about all life. Grandparents. Progressives.

Helene	Oct 9 2008 7:26 AM I've learned that Electricity comes from Electrons... does that mean that Morality comes from Morons? I've learned Marriage is the mourning after the knot before. I've learned that whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed. I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others - they are more screwed up than you think. I've learned that if you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this!" get out of his way. These are likely the last words he will ever say, or worse still, that you will ever hear. * Live Well - Laugh Often - Love Much * Helene Malmsio Get your Career Planning Guide for 2009
Helene	Jul 2 2008 1:29 PM Everything I know I learned from my cat: When you're hungry, eat. When you're tired, nap in a sunbeam. When you go to the vet's, pee on your owner. ~ Gary Smith What is a Cat? Cats do what they want. They rarely listen to you. They're totally unpredictable. When you want to play, they want to be alone. When you want to be alone, they want to play. They expect you to cater to their every whim. They're moody. They leave hair everywhere. CONCLUSION: They're tiny WOMEN in little fur coats. I have just adopted another two kittens (Ferals!) so wish me luck! Although cats are rather delicate creatures, and they are subject to a good many ailments, I never heard of one who suffered from insomnia. Are you still feeling tired all the time?

Helene	Jun 17 2007 5:24 PM Classic Steven Wright wisdoms to Ponder: 1- I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize. 2- Borrow money from pessimists - they don't expect it back. 3- Half the people you know are below average. 4- 99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name. 5- 42.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot. 6- A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts feel so good. 7- A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. 8- If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain. 9- The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. 10- I almost had a psychic girlfriend, but she left me before we met. 11- OK, so what's the speed of dark? 12- How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? 13- Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm. 14- When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. 15- Ambition is a poor excuse for not having the sense to be lazy. 16- If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? 17- Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. 18- What happens if you get scared half to death twice? 19- My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder." 20- Why do psychics have to ask you for your name? 21- If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried. 22- A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking. 23- The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard. 24- Everyone has a photographic memory; some just don't have film.

Helene	Jun 5 2007 4:54 PM Hello again, this week I'm sharing some Great Truths That Adults Have Learned Raising teenagers is like nailing jelly to a tree. Wrinkles don't hurt. Families are like fudge... mostly sweet, with a few nuts. Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut that held its ground. Laughing is good exercise. It's like jogging on the inside. Brain-cells come and brain-cells go, but fat-cells live forever. Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fibre, not the toy. If you can't be a good example -- then you'll just have to be a horrible warning. ____00000000______00000000 __00_______000__000_______00 _00__________0000__________00 00____________00____________00 00__________________________00 00__________THANKS________00 _00___________FOR_________00 __00_________BEING_______00 ___00_________MY________00 _____00_____FRIEND____00__ _______00____________00____ _________00________00______ ___________00___00_________ ____________00_00__________ _____________00____________ _____________ 0 ____________ Live Well - Laugh Often - Love Much Helene Malmsio
Helene	May 28 2007 1:00 PM WELCOME! Hello my friend, this week I share some lessons I've learned.... ♥ That life is tough, but I'm tougher. ♥ That under everyone's hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved. ♥ That a smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks. ♥ That the Lord didn't do it all in one day. What makes me think I can? ♥ That to ignore the facts does not change the facts. ♥ That love, not time, heals all wounds. (and wounds all heels!) ♥ That everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile. ♥ That I can't choose how I feel, but I can choose what I do about it. ♥ That one should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them. Live Well - Laugh Often - Love Much Helene Malmsio
