[My] Life in Wisconsin

My Friends... Part Three

Part Three...

Cristy works at a funeral home, and can honestly make the most out of this all! Level~headed and so much fun. She is always busy, has many friends and loved ones who are always there for her. The funeral home is not her only job, and she plays therapist at her other job to a younger co~worker who is one tough little chickipoo... She is quick enough to know when the wool is being pulled over her eyes, and strong enough to say so too. Another person not afraid to call a spade a spade.

Paddy, who is taking a well~deserved and hard~earned break right now, is sassy and just plain fun to be around. We stalked each others blogs for months and finally became friends. She will return to her 360 shortly (I hope)?! hehehe We all deserve a break, and to have one in the Springtime is just perfect! http://360.yahoo.com/profile-MjncX3sheqIYKPJUoAPY97w-?cq=1

___

Taia, Sweet Jen most recently has taken a digger, (and has also taken a picture resulting from her fight with gravity). Funny enough to bring tears to my eyes. She misplaces staplers, men and running shoes... hehehe She is wild and crazy, and is also not afraid to call a spade a spade. http://360.yahoo.com/profile-IAyVwkwleq8lLAr_LLDb_dycWw--?cq=1

___

Brendartist2 lives in Blacksburg Virginia... She has just lost a very close personal friend of hers in that awful holocaust at VA~TECH. Like the rest of the world, she is still coming to grips with everything bad that has happend. Brenda writes poetry and is classy and usually upbeat. Please say an extra little prayer for her... and for all as well. She is a poet who can hit home with her words and her heart.

John C. is new to my friends list. He is also ever so thankful to those people on his own friends list who make his life a little less boring. John lives in the UK, loves his children and his computer. He is semi~retired, and looking forward to swimming at the new gym!

___

Nancy C , aka a "pself~proclaimed" psycho sales bitch ... (ya gotta love 'retail' to understand that one)... Most recently has written about alzheimers disease, as her grandmother suffers; and brings to mind my won memories of what Mamas cousin went through. She has kissed many frogs, and finally one turned into her prince charming. Loves her husband perfectly!

Cris is kind of an 'adopted' daughter of mine. She is married to Russ, who she met while serving our country in the US Marine Corps. She is currently also attending school at NWTC. They have 3 beautiful children; 2 girls and a boy, and she is a wonderful mother. I have known Crystal since she was about 11 or so. I worked with her stepmother, Cris herself and her sisters for many years. She is full of life. Kind. And is always proud of her family and friends. Not a blogger, for there isn't much time for it after her day is done! (Three kids, Crystal, is it ever really done)?

Brandy is Cris' big sister. Another 'adopted' daughter of mine, and of course I have known Miss Brandy for the same length of time. She is vivacious, friendly and a very hard worker too. She manages her time on the farm, along with her job and her lovely daughter too! Not a blogger, but keeps in touch through my 360 pages; IF she has any few minutes leftover at the end of the day!

Bren, a displaced Hoosier, a mom and a grandmother now, she writes of His Love in all the little things that happen each day. A heartwarming way to start my days...

___

Lone Rider loves his Harley and his family. He raised those kids on his own after his wife absconded to points unknown. Another one who works entirely too hard, and yet has time to care for others. At the moment he is still taking donations for June 23, 07 Poker Run for Abused Children. Anyone wanting to make a donation to the Child Abuse Prevention Fund may contact Duane. He has a heart of gold. Down to earth and practical too. My VERY FIRST 360~Land Friend!

___

Reconstituted Teenager Most exactly and aptly named! There is nothing this lady cannot blog about and make it interesting to me! She comes from a long line of horse thieves and malt liquor! (Haven't heard of the real Ninky~Nana~Momo Gang? Right up there with Dillinger and Capone if you ask me)... But you didn't ask, so you will just have to go read, sit back and ENJOY each word! I did it for the postcard! (haven't seen it yet, but my own is absolutely the very best answer, wouldn't you agree)? hehehe

Tattoed and True (speaking of surgery... I was too), is Aggie, who is yet another of my friends who has recently underwent surgery. She is regaining the full use of her hand through physical therapy; (and with the spunk one needs to endure it all). She has a highly scientific brain, and has already answered many of my little science questions. She can also tell you how to make a snowflake fossil. (Hopefully this is something to do next year with the kids and grandchildren because we just want the danged cold~n~snow weather to go away til then)!

Miss Cherokee Donna another 'sister' found through our 360 world; and we share so very much... From our passionate love of children and grandchildren, to all the little things that make up our days. She has most recently lived through a tornado that pretty much left her yard reduced to next winters firewood. Like me she has Raynauds Disease, only it has affected her much worse than myself. She is a pistol, and takes no crap from anybody. A trait to be envied, and yet has the ability to love fiercely and forever.

http://360.yahoo.com/profile-uWD9Twsyc6MrzPqoEcmsmfUgExYu34k-?cq=1

But First, I did find this "Special Wish" for y'all too!

____

There is Mr. Tim, who came to me through an old blog I had written about my own fathers U. S. Navy experiences aboard the USS McFarland.

Miss Connie, whose husband is a wonderful & sexy hat man that goes by the name of John T! (And who also has his own blog)! They live in Texas and visit their other home in Arkansas a lot. (Or maybe they live in Arkansas and visit their other home in Texas). I surely DO get so "cornfoosed" sometimes... But Connie is not afraid, EVER, to tell it like it is. I adore that ability in anyone, and I cherish her as my friend.

DeeAnne, I believe we are sisters- an amazing counterpart to each others ideals, (but not countering ideals either). Except that she is much kinder than I; (even with the ALIENS that live in her head). She can tell me exactly which end is up in case I ever forget. She also quickly became one of my closest friends on here. My 'real' world, and my little 360 World would not be complete without her in it! An original member, and appointed Leader of the Hung~Low Gang. http://360.yahoo.com/profile-dt1TOco1fqPveZBCIxbvouRhNwo-?cq=1

(I know this little "BUG" is hidden here, somewhere; as this is the ONLY time she ever calls me). But I do love her upbeat and happy voice on my answering machine as well! She writes of her two beautiful children, the love of her life; and of the love she has for life itself! http://360.yahoo.com/profile-v4BPcpUid6McBhg16BSMynAWQVzfRuOisC7nag--?cq=1

She now has a pet goat (that her mama says looks like a hand puppet)! As we all do, Miss RubyBlue needs a bit of tenderness now and again, which her husband is providing so well.
