About Me

I have had medical issues and customs issues.... yet I am still here so please gather with me and help me remove these ones...

I am having EXTREME customs issues. Please do not rate me a 1 over this matter. I do not know why this is happening to me... Yet AmandaC got her buttons ATC's.. how did that get through but items and packages I sent back in Feb still have not arrive.

Please do not think I am a flaker as I am not... This is doing my head in. So totally unfair to you as a partner...

I am sorry ahead of time: if you are affected at all.

I am an easy going person. Who am I kidding, I am .... I just quit my job so I have loads more time to play in my art room.

You beauty!!!!

Mother of 4, who all go to school.

Ahh! I can now relax.... lounge around and where silly clothes just like one of the pets ! . . . . . This is Taylah(16"> and Lewis-Paul(15)

  • Overworked and Underpaid. Isn't that every mothers comment when it comes to a brief profile of themselves. I have a huge profile but there isn't enough room on the page to tell you all how much I love to do this or that. ... lol....

... This is Liam and Alana(12) - Our Twins

Most articles about people begin with where and when someone was born, whom to and the age of their first achievements. But I will try - I was born in Perth, WA, (29.08.69), to Faye and Dennis Murphy. I met my husband at the stupid age of 13 and been with him ever since. (I should of experimented with drugs when I had the chance, things may of changed)... ha ha !!

How is it that we measure age on years of existence and not life experiences and spiritual learnings? This is the way of thinking that makes me who I am I guess, which is what this is about. Not details of my life my job title or status, not what I look like, but me.

I am a spiritual person of many beliefs. I believe in god, the power of the universe, karma, fate and that everyone has a great purpose although some will never know or realize their impact.

I hope to one day find a religion that I can dedicate my life to yet not through searching but by chance whilst traveling through a beautiful landscape. I love art. I see life as art.

It is one big learning curve... When I come back in my next life I would definitely do some things differently than I have to this day, that is for sure. Everytime it just gets harder and harder. I swear I must of been a saint back in one of lives, I try to do good but I love revenge when it hurts....

If I could I would carry a camera with me everwhere I went. I have a fascination with people, I will some time go to the extent of making a spectacle of myself just to observe other peoples reactions, their behavior, their expressions and their gestures.

So until the next episode keep believing and achieving, we are all powerful women capable of anything. The things I am thankful in my life are extremely precious.

My family, my precious animals and my friends.

A life of receiving is poor yet a life of giving is rich...........

Well that really sums me up perfectly. I love to write whatever comes to mind..

I live where the best beaches are. Glorious sunshine oh and horrible days like today. 13th May 2008.. We have a website devoted to our hometown.. www.perthnow.com.au

My Daughter Alana loves Winnie the Pooh

Her twin brother Liam loves cars (like most boys) baseball and soccer (yay go Manchester).. Taylah (16 going on burial) .. She loves Air Force Cadets. She has just been invited by the RaaF to attend the Amberley Air Show in Brisbane in October. Happy 17th Birthday to her whilst she is there. She has also, just last week, been granted Flight Sergeant for her quadron, yes she is a bit excited...

Lewis-Paul (15) taller than me, damn it that is not fair... He is a science freak. He had his Term 1 assessment meeting yesterday and apparently he is University Entrance level already. Isn't that just great taller and smarter. I breed them well. Oh and a typical boy when it comes to the electronic babysitters.

Oh my I am dribbling like it is my blog...Sorry about that.....

Mother of many including the husband.

We have our own business. The beloved building trade. My hubby works really hard and long hours.

I love to do anything really. I LOVE CATS..... Here are my girls...

Bella - Maine Coon/Norwegian Forest Cat.

Rabbit - Ginger Persian.

That is Rabbit as a kitten in my profile pic.

I also have two Staffordshire Bull Terriers Husband and Wife ...(Buddy and Peanut),and together they have had 7 kids, sorry should I call them puppies.

Only 5 fish now, and a light green budgie (Chrissy), my son bought him for my Mum for Christmas in 2006, and he used to come to our house to be budgiesat, then home he would go after a couple of days or so, then one day he came for the Friday night and well he has never left, (that was 18 months ago.), and of course our Rainbow Lorikeet, his name is BUBBA (he is just the awesomest ever bird.

He loves to play with his toys on the ground, he has complete run of the house and it just so cute and really loving and very protective of me.

I love swimming, gymnastics, re-arranging furniture,watching baseball, Gardening, playing with the kids, playing games on my mobile, and have a fetish for craft, ....... and believe it or not, I love housework, just not my own, other people's as I know they appreciate it........ no I am not mentally ill... Oh and I love typing.

This is a picture of my Husbands Grandmother as a little girl... Is she not just the beautifulist little thing.

Favorite Music

Any music really from A - Z. I love to sing so anything that keeps up with my vocal chords probably works well.

I especially love classical music.

Favorite Movies

Cars - I really like this movie. Hairspray, Lars and the Real Girl, Horton Hears a Who, Gone with the Wind, A Chorus Line, Ghost, Maid in Manhattan, Big, Amadeus, The Rose, 27 Dresses, Pretty Woman, The Fox and the Hound, The Little Mermaid oh and lets not forget Finding Nemo.

And of course - The Aristocats... Oh and Dumbo..!!

I love kids movies. I think comes from being a mum.

I love being able to get away with walking into the movies to watch a kids movie. If no kids available just borrow someone else's from the line, even buy them popcorn and then sit with the family, at least you can have someone to talk to and laugh with during the movie, .....always works for me.

Favorite Television

I am not really a TV Person but when I do dabble I like to watch........... The View, any crime show. , . and I love

hey I maybe from Australia but you must agree, she rocks.

Favorite Crafts

I like to try anything. I like Card Making. I am not into scrapbooking, yet I have 1000's of layout ideas, but getting them to paper is the problem. (and extremely frustrating)

Did I mention I love Cats...

I love the idea of ATC's, just love them.

Update... 8 Jan 2008... I did my first scrapbook page... Yay!! Feb 2008. Of my babies, not the cats silly, my twins ...............

Another update 11 April 2008...... I just created yet another masterpiece...(Sorry what was that, I was choking) ... It was a challenge set by Scraptivate, a local store.

Cats are always there when you need a helping hand..

The Aussie can holder will also come in very handy as we start our hot, thirsty summer days. (The system will not let me in to rate you so I am leaving a message here for now - will definitely give you a 5 and a heart when I can.) Hugs, Terry
