: About Me

Born in 1961 in Hereford, TX. Now living near Maryville, TN. Married. At one time I was an Administrative Assistant. Now I'm a truck driver. I like truck driving better.

I love to read. Anything. From Danielle Steel to Isaac Asimov to Louis L'amore. Love to write, too. Mostly research and opinion stuff. Sometimes poetry.

I am a mother of three and grandmother of two. My son is in the US Navy, serving on the Nimitz. My youngest daughter is in college. My oldest daughter is mostly a stay at home mom with a few odd jobs now and then. Proud of them all.

I really like reality shows, Stargate SG-1, Star Trek, and Gray's Anatomy.
