Playing guitar, writing songs, singing. Listening to music, moving to music, discovering it and connecting to it. Watching movies, laughing, making a meal for friends or family.
Running around the show ring with my dog Zephyr.
Family time....going out to dinner, walking my dog! Just hanging out, eating, cooking, walking, talking, driving, writing, exploring. Drinking coffee, making coffee, going to a concert or party. Ideas, thoughts, new friends, poetry, analyzing everything. Observing beautiful men and women....
I mostly enjoy taking it all in and then overthinking it. I am subtly intense.

My Mom,

My Daughter,
Tony Hajjar....not JUST for his rhythm, but for the reason captured in the movie below:
About me: In general I am a very happy, easy going and verbose, individual, who aims to please, and strives to find something in common with everyone. I am a loyal and attentive friend, who finds intelligence, humor & genuineness extremely attractive.
Music gives me definition, it swirls all around & within me. Music is the language in which I speak. Music inspires me and motivates me. Music is one of my soul mates. (The other is my very gorgeous and AMAZING husband.) Seriously....LOOK:!!
I have been rescuing dogs for more than 14 years, which has had heavy influence on my life and family. After much sacrifice, full of both joy and pain, I am taking off that hat and hope to embark on another enriching adventure. My dogs are still a very big part of me, but I would love to let the musical side of me out now!
I feel quite strongly connected to all things...do YOU?
I will tell you anything you want to know & not a thing you can say or do will shock me. I am opinionated, yet open-minded. I am presently working towards being less of a pushover. It's not that I lack original things to say, I just enjoy quoting lines from movies, songs & animated TV. If you are savvy - I'm smiling & impressed. (Otherwise I might not make any sense to you.....)
I like to use curse words whenever I can.
Oh and sometimes I take Pictures!!
