    About Me

    Surgery date 3/19/08. Live in a small town, married for 28 years, one adult child (age 22), and I love animals. I volunteer at a nursing home once a month because I feel sorry for people that are sick or disabled and for what ever reason can't get out and about. I bring the outside in to them by providing a fun night of free Bingo to them. I like to go to church and my favorite passage in the Bible is Psalm 103. If I ever feel used, abused, or sick, I just read Psalm 103. Here is some of what Psalm 103 says: Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The LORD executes righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy...He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor punished us according to our iniquities...The mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who respect Him, and His righteousness to children’s children... Well, you get the idea. You can look it up for yourself if you want to read more.

      Thank you, you're looking great and doing great too! Congratulations to us both. 9 months ago we both thought we'd never get to this place and here we are. My Cheyenne is a mutt, she's a border collie mix but we don't know her specific breed. She was an abused dog we adopted when she was just a few weeks old. I love her.
