The Fox and The Hound

What’s your favorite cartoon?

I’ve watched this so many times over the years. When I was a child in the late seventies and early eighties, I had the vinyl with the picture on it. I listened to it, I watched it and I loved it. It was the taking in of a lost baby fox without its mother that stole my devotion. Later as a teenager I would adopt a foal that’s mother had died after birth. I raised that foal as a mother. He would suckle on my fingers. Come when I called. As a day or two day old foal, it was February and my dad put newspaper all over my bedroom and let the baby stay on my room. I woke up every couple hours with a velvet muzzle and a little nicker in my face. So I think the movie prepared me for the raising and loving and heartache of raising an animal as a human

I gave my testimony in front of my church

I was pretty nervous. My method of staying calm was by looking up towards the back of the congregation and sweeping my eyes across the room, smiling as I spoke and having written really good notes to go by! I was 15 years old.

Horse Back Riding

I haven’t rode a horse in years but it is my very favorite physical activity. To sit on that magnificent beast, to be in line with it, to move with it, exhilarating!!

Taking A Chance

I greatly admire a person that will take a chance, possibly a mistake, and do what their heart tells them.

Quit a job that is unfulfilling, break up with that person that is convenient, comfortable or maybe even mean, move to a new town or country! I admire a simple person set out to do something new and exciting, maybe even scary.

Taking a chance or risk. For themselves. Admirable!

I see wild animals……

In Arlington Texas, at Veridian Park, I walked side by side with a little bob tailed cat. only he was larger than any house cat I have ever seen! Of course I see beautiful birds and I hear their sweet songs. Squirrels come by my yard for corn treats. I snapped the photo of the turtle in Hawaii!

I would like to change the fact that on a deep level, I haven’t loved myself.

I would like to look in the mirror and not listen to the negative dialogue I hear within, I am actively on this trend, loving myself. I don’t want the readers to feel pity or think I am actively disliking myself. I am on the road. I am taking the purposeful time to change my inner voice, to say positive and loving things about myself, to myself. I am created in Gods image, marvelously created. I love God, so why has it taken me so long to really learn the art of giving myself a break, not comparing myself to others, I mean, God decided how I would look on purpose and it is a lie from the pits of hell that I should alter myself so I can look like someone else to be happy or prettier. That is what I would like to change, the idea that I should change something about myself just to fit in.

My kids & myself

What are you most proud of in your life?

When my kids were young, between 14 and 10, I became seriously ill with depression after the divorce of their father and me. I soon after became addicted to drugs and ended up in prison. Their father drank a lot but provided a safe home for them to grow up in and they are young adults now that don’t use drugs, they are all in good jobs. They work hard and now that I’ve been out of prison for 4 years, drug free, we have reconciled. I am proud of them. I am proud of myself. I do however, give God the glory and chose to stay humble because life is hard and I’ve been known to make bad choices so my pride must always stay in check lest I fall.

Quilting

What have you been working on?

I’m narrowing this down to quilting. I made a quilt 25 years ago that my youngest has kept. Over the years it’s worn out so she asked me for another. It’s a fun thing to tackle and each stitch I can’t help but think of her. Also, since my other kids might feel slighted, I’m also working on projects for them❤️

I value being alone

What’s something most people don’t know about you?

I am outgoing, always smiling. I’m easy to talk to and I listen really well. I listen really well because I don’t care to share, I keep my inner being to myself. I prefer solitude to a party. People are surprised when I tell them I’m introverted because I’m so outgoing open and friendly!!
