Swimming (when I know what's in the water),Writing, Reading, Home Improvement, Gardening, Cooking (well, sort of), losing to my kids on the Play Station, anything around water, Photography, thrift or bargain shopping, travel, technology, working out, I'm going to take up day trips this summer and quite possibly hiking. No, I don't bowl except for comedy.
Music
Television
A bit of a reality show junkie, but only selectively. I am way too busy creating this crazy MySpace and playing taxi mom to really spend a lot of time in front of the tube...besides...I fall asleep less than ten minutes into the show anyway, so why bother.
Books
Oh, my, far too many to mention. I have a stack on my bedside nightstand, more in the living room and two entire bookshelves in my hallway are filled with books. It's true, I love spending a quiet evening at home with a glass of wine and a good book. I'm reading about seven books right now. The genres are self help, business leadership, science fiction, fiction, writing, and the list goes on. My kids and I are having a reading competition this summer. The girls have to read Homer's "The Iliad" and "The Odessey" for school...hahahahaha!
Heroes
Helen Keller, Mother Teresa, Abraham Lincoln, Rosa Parks and anyone who has overcome severe adversity or hardship to succeed. These people inspire me.
Oh, yeah, and of people I have known in real time who are my heroes: my grandparents, my parents, my siblings and my children...and the students and parents of the students I teach and have taught. They are all doing a courageous work in parenting the best way they know how and I am daily inspired by them.

About Me:
Digital description is such a limiting dimension in many ways. To know me, you must experience me...but I think that's probably true for anyone who is really determined to live this life "with arms wide open".
If you have a sense of humor that can laugh at the genuine comedy of life, be amused at the gift of living and not use that humor to hurt or harm another...we will connect immediately. If you have vision, purpose, direction and something that gives your life a bigger, broader meaning than merely existing to survive day to day...I will admire you. If you are sensitive, thoughtful, caring, respectful and responsible in your affairs...I will like you and respect you and be pleased to call you a friend. If you are safe to be around and you will treat my hopes, dreams, fears and ponderings with acceptance and care...I will trust you. I will of course, hope to be all of these things for you as well...if you are one I call "friend". And...if you can make me laugh at the end of a tough day and I can return the favor to you, then may we enjoy many tough days concluded in love and laughter as we journey through this crazy experience called life.
Who I'd like to meet:
My Soul Companion. I'd also like to recognize him when he arrives. =) So far, all I've met in that category are imposters or those destined to be very good friends. The very good friends is wonderful, don't get me wrong. It's okay, I love my friends. And my soul companion must be the bestest friend ever, before he makes it into the "S.C." category.

Hey Cat!
I think you are one of my HOTTEST FRIENDS, so I nominated you for my Hot Friends list. But are you really HOT enough to be on Hotties for Sale? Find out!
My kids are driving me nuts about getting together. We have GOT to do something next week!
I enjoyed getting together the other night. I don't know where the time goes. We should have gotten together several times this summer....instead, the summer is almost gone and we've seen each other what, twice? LOL Oh life! =]
Hey Cat, Great Blog(s) you've got going. The creative juices are flowing! I'll be sure to check back soon, and start contributing something too. Keep that writing going. :>) ~M
Just dropping by to listen to your daughter babbling on about something... Hey, I like the slide show. I hadn't seen that yet. You've been doing some renovations on the place ;>) Anyway, too late at night for a full immersion, but I'll catch up with new additions here soon. Hope you're well.
Just stopping by to say "hay." (Yes, I know that's incorrect, but, Teach, what are those things called? Homonymphs? As an editor, you'd think I'd know that...)
Happy Birthday!!!! How old are you now???? HEHEHEHE...So would it screw things up terribly if we came on Monday and stayed the night and left on Tuesday, instead of staying the night on Sunday?
I know, I LOVE SUMMER!!! The kids are having a blast in the sun...too bad Washington hasnt started summer yet. When we left it was raining. I cant wait to see you too!! We plan on being there Sunday afternoon/evening. Will all the kids be there? I cant wait to see how big they are!
Remember us discussing the son in Hollywood chasing the acting career at age 14? Well, google Movie Surfers by Disney on the net, open the official site. Then click on the film clip "Surfers go to Space Camp" and sit back & watch Bridger get his introduction as a Movie Surfer. He also recently booked a voice over as Travis in an animated cartoon called Bunyan & Babe. He will be with John Goodman, Kelsey Grammer & Eddie Griffin for Exodus Film Group. I am so proud of that older son of mine & so blessed. Youngest is playing in goal for local mite hockey team & going to goalie camp this summer!
