ANYthing that moves me, regardless of genre, artist, etc. I refuse to put music in a box....It's just got to move me. REAL music lovers respect all forms of music and the musicians who create it.....

Paranormal Research and Investigation: This is my passion. President and Founder of the Oklahoma Society for Ghost Research (OSGR); Investigator/Public Relations/Assistant Vice President for the Southwest Oklahoma Ghost Chasers (SWOGC).
COFFEE!!!: (you don't even know the extent of this addiction....I seriously need 12 steps and a nametag) My favorite drink usually contains chocolate and 4 or 5 shots of espresso...no wonder the hubby calls it "mochaine".
MY SPIRITUALITY: It is constantly evolving and changing. I'm learning, seeing and experiencing more with every day. Organized religion seriously frightens me.... What lessons are they teaching, anyway? How to be judgmental and irrational to those who are different? Hmmm.... Remember kids...Minds are like parachutes...they only function when they're open.
MUSIC: Music was my first true love and has been ever since. My husband, brother, neighbor (Darren) and I make up a band called Thicker Than Water. We play locally and have a ball together....... :)
MY PETS: Lilith, Luci, Lexi, Buffy, Starbuck and Kali.
Most importantly: MY FAMILY: My daughter Calyn, funny, fearless, beautiful, sweet, smart and inspiring...my biggest blessing, my (step)daughter Kimberly ...I didn't give birth to her, but she's mine. She's beautiful, insightful and absolutely brilliant. My (step)son Kevin, serving our country in the Navy...I'm remarkably proud of and scared for him...., and last but not least, George...my husband, best friend, shoulder, confidant, soulmate, bandmate, partner in non-conformity and sexy beast. :) My parents, Jerry and Gayle....the two most spectacular people I know and the people who allowed me to be my own person. My brother, Quinn....neighbor, my friend, one of my heroes for as long as I can remember and an amazing, talented musician and an awesome Dad. Paige, his lovely wife and my friend. Jake, my nephew, ME in younger, male form and hardest working teenager you'll ever meet. And then there's Taylor...my niece...musical phenom and all around dynamo. These people are the reason my heart beats and the reason my feet hit the floor every morning. :)
