I'm a mother of 3 "GREAT" but crazy boys(men). Feel free to view their profiles on my space. I have acocker spaniels that are my babies. Her name is Ebony. I also inherited a taco bell dog named Mindy. We had to put our old dog to sleep. Her name was Puddy and she was 16 yrs old. I have a super duper husband that loves me for who I am. And if I were any better, I'd be perfect (minus the cancer). Just an "Ole Hillbilly" from Bunker Hill "Almost Heaven" West Virginia. Well here it is 2009 and I have become a beginning banjo player, a grandma for the second time and am planning all vacations at bluegrass festivals. Is that normal? Happy Anniversary to us. It's been year since we (me and Dave) have had a cigarette. When sadness is all around you, just look it in the eye and be at peace with yourself and you will make it through......and I'm the best banjo player in my neighborhood LOL. I don't have much more to say but thought I'd better update this to say....I'm still giving it my best shot, have met many friends here on BHO but what I like best is going out to the concerts and festivals and meeting you all(and you know who you are) in person and putting that real face behind the name...not just that someone on the internet. Love you all and let's keep meeting like this...Lots of smiles to all !!!
