- About me:
- My Favorite listening...STAN GETZ
About me....to complex..haha ;)
I simply love the Saxophone and in my opinion, Stan Getz music in #1 on my top 5. There is no sound like the sound this man could make with this amazing instrument. Very distinct and unique sound. I love it.
I love to write songs by ear, seeing as I don't read a lick of music..lol. I will sit down at the piano, get into some lost world of my own and play what I hear in my heart. Have been singing for hire for 15+ years and enjoying every minute of it...bar one wedding I had to sing "Endless Love" haaaa
Spending hours lost in the world of writing and composing is my favorite thing to do when I have free time. I love my 3 children with all my heart, mind, body and soul. OH and Mia my precious grandbaby:) They are grown...26, 24 and 20...all successful at their choice of field and I give the credit for that to God...without him I could not have raised them to be so wonderful as they are.
THEN...there is my "furry family." When I feel lonely...they sense that and are there for me...no judgement, Just furry wonderful unconditional love:) I thank God for them every day..don't know what I'd do without em;)
Hmmm I love candles, making & smelling. When you light a candle in a room...you have created an instant ambiance of peace and calm. I love meeting new people, try to touch hurting peoples hearts and live each day as it comes:) That should do it!...Zzzzzzzz ;)...... and Bev....you are a sweetheart:) I love to come here as a refuge and a source of enjoyment as well. What a wonderful idea to keep memory of Stan with friendships music and laughter:) XOXO
GREAT FOOD FOR THOUGHT & APPLICATION:)
1.I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you…
2. No man or woman is worth your tears, & the one who is, won't make you cry.
3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand & touches your heart.
5.The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them
6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
8. Don't waste your time on someone, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.
9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.
10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
11. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting & just be more careful about who you trust next time around.
12. Make yourself a better person & know who you are before you try & know someone else & expect them to know you.
13. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

I had a new teacher Saturday, actually it's my regular's hubby a college prof. Good session with lots of talk about style. And of course Stan's name came up. I will / can I ever be anything like him. Not enough years left and different circumstances and times. But boy, do I love his playing and I know you do too.
Anyway, when you don't hear from me for awhile don't think I'm not thinking of you and Bev and all the others.
As Bev says: hugs and kisses
