    About Me

    I am 37 years old, married, high school English teacher. I have my husband, a Puggle puppy named Nate, my father, two older brothers, and two nephews and a "neph-dog" named Scout, whom I adore. My mom used to lovingly call me her "fungus" because we were so close and I was always clinging to her giving her hugs!!! She was my best friend;my absolute world. I told her everything. When she got sick, I helped a lot with her care. She passed away Feb. 20, 2007 and I am miserable without her. I feel as though part of me died when she did and I'll never be the same.

    Interests

    Music especially: Elvis Presley, Engelbert Humperdinck. Movies, walks, family, surfing the net, dinner with friends and family and cooking.

    • Prayer

      From urloved Monday

      Sometimes when we are weary, And feel our strength is gone. Sometimes when we are lonely, And have lost hope to carry on. Sometimes in darkest moments, When we think that no one cares. God hears our cries and then sends Jesus, So our burdens He can share. Keep your eyes upon the Savior, Don't give up, just trust in Him. He'll love and guide you through each trial, And give you hope to try again. When your heart feels only sorrow, And you don't know where to turn. When you see no reason to continue, He will gently help you learn. That every trial and each temptation, And every problem that we face, Can be a lesson of great value, If learned by His Amazing Grace. Just put your faith and trust in Jesus. He holds the answers to each prayer. Just take His hand that is extended, Because He is waiting for you there. So, keep your eyes upon the Savior. Don't give up, just trust in Him. He'll love and guide you through each trial, And give you hope to try again. In Christ's Love, Teresa

      It's not that kind of bibliography . . . I'm trying to use the program BiBTeX to put a bibliography into my masters thesis . . . it sucks, big time.

      My mother had COPD. Was doing better (I thought) but then got rushed to the hospital the end of January and was put on a ventilator. Her heart was too weak to sustain her and she passed on February 20th.
