I like camping, bird watching, pool, darts, dogs, cats, pigs,and ducks(actually pretty much all animals). I have 4 step-cats (which I'm allergic to, but I love 'em anyway). I am stepmom to 16 year old girl/boy twins, recently married to the love of my life (2 years, 0 months and 20 days).

TNT television, Xena Warrior Princess, Charmed, CSI, The Closer, and TV land. Also New England Patriots football and Green Bay Packers football.

I make jewelry for fun, (trying to get the guts to do it for money), and I love beads. I am learning to knit, as I have a weird fascination with hand-knit socks. I learned to crochet as a pre-teen (hundreds of years ago) and I also do needlepoint on plastic canvas.

I love almost anything from the 60's and 70's as well as a lot of newer stuff. Don't care for rap or classical. Some of the 80's stuff is ok, too. Favorite artists include Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Melissa Etheridge, Cher, k.d.lang, Johnny Cash, Barry White, Jon Bon Jovi, Meat Loaf, The Eagles, Rod Stewart (early), Elton John and The Doobie Brothers. I have a serious aversion to ANYTHING Elvis.

I read almost anything, especially murder mysteries, spooky thriller Stephen King-Dean Koontz types, Patterson, Evanovich, Robert Ludlum, Lee Childs, Michael Creighton. NOT into self-help type books (I'm beyond help) or romance novels.

I love old movies,(especially Mel Brooks comedies), and almost anything with John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart, Jimmy Cagney, Cary Grant. Westerns, musicals, comedies, and old Disney are favorites.

My favorite colors are red, black and blue, and my favorite liquid refreshment is Dunkin Donuts coffee (and Tim Horton's, but I can't get that here). I love General Foods Suisse Mocha coffee and tend to hoard it (what if I run out?) and Hershey's chocolate (milk chocolate bars, Kisses, etc.) Also M&M's (RED!) KitKat bars and Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk ice cream. I like jar candles, purple slag glass, black amythest glass, ginormous coffee mugs, and the Green Bay Packers.
