I live in a little logging town in Western Washington. My
husband Jim and I were married in Dec. 1978 and between
us we have 1 son, 4 daughters and now 11 grandchildren!

For many years I worked as a waitress in various resturants.
When Jim and I got married, I quit working and stayed home
to care for my 3 young daughters & Jim's little daughter too.
I babysat little ones and did that for about 10 years.

Since then, I now clean houses to earn a little income
and I enjoy doing that.

ABOUT ME

I love the 'old' rock and roll music from the 50's~60's.
I got my first computer April 1998 and in the beginning
used it only for chat. After a while I got tired of that and
wanted to see if I could figure out how to build a website.
I saw so many neat ones on the internet & wanted to have
one too! So in August of 1998 ~ 'Lady's Place' was born.
It's gone thru many changes since then!

I'm kept busy corresponding with many internet friends,
family and personal friends. In July 2002, I was invited to
join an internet group called 'The Garden of Friendship'. I
signed up and now help out with several of their committees.
It keeps me busy within the group and also got to 'meet' the
members in the group that way. There's around 300 of us?

I have 'pen pals' I correspond with that I've never met, but
we've been corresponding so long ~ I feel like I know them.

I have several things I collect; mainly porcelain dolls,
also collect cherished teddies, music boxes and baskets.
(Glass or wood.) I have several Longaberger baskets.
They are each quite unique in their style and colors.

I love Thomas Kinkade art and have several of his.

Paula Vaughan is also a favorite painter of mine....
She has all kinds of cross-stitch pattern books out
there to buy. I love to do counted cross stitch & have
quite a few CCS pics hanging on the walls here at home.
Most of them took months & others took even years to complete.

Some of my favorite things:

Song: Can't Help Falling in Love--by Elvis
(Jim's and my song)
Animal: Cat
Flower: Pink Roses
Food: Chinese
Color: Blue
Actor: John Travolta
