The Woman

I am a romantic Libra born October 13th in the year of the dragon.

I have 3 children of
whom I am proud to be their mother.

I now also have four grandchildren.

ages 3,2, 18 months and a newborn.

I have a joie de vivre that is infectious.
I appreciate every waking moment of
the "present" of life to the fullest.

I'm an air sign and the dragon's element is water

I love music in all its artistic forms.
I especially enjoy U2, Sarah McLachlin, Jann Arden, and Francis Cabrel

But I often play classical or New Age

I adore violin and cello music. It reaches the
inner core of my soul.
My favourite piece of music: Gabriel's Oboe
It always makes me cry.

I am a mother, a grandmother, an art teacher, and an artist,
and a loyal friend.

I don't care what other people think about me.
I am who I am who I am.
I don't let this change me .

I love to read true crime novels when I'm not on my computer.

I am not materialistic but do appreciate the finer things
life has to offer if I can afford it. If I can't, easy come, easy go.
I don't believe in "keeping up with the Jones"
I love wearing beautiful clothes but am content in sport capris,
I had a secret passion to be a home decorator;
I love good food and vacation time but just as happy finding things to do in my city as Montreal is awesome.

And of course I love computers!

I think I can adapt and fit in just about anywhere.
Throw me a sleeping bag and I will sleep under the stars.
Put me in a palace and I will hold my pinky out lol
But I can rough it and be quite happy. O:-)
I love the smell of the country air in the morning.

The most important things in life cannot be wrapped up in a box.
I enjoy "presence" rather than "presents"
I don't like to feel lonely although I do enjoy being alone sometimes.
And although it's important to be happy you must
have "JOY" in your life.

I speak English and quite fluent in French.

I am also an optimist, an amateur philosopher slash
numerologist all rolled up into one.

I once dabbled in a little Tarot reading.

I believe in Angels. O:-)
I am an avid fan of Eckhart Tolle

I'm a great cook when I feel like cooking.
It's always better to have someone to cook for though.
I abhor housework, but way too proud not to do it
but as I'm getting older it is becoming less important .
I love cats and dogs and foster when I can.
I think cats are far more intelligent than we
give them credit for but I prefer dogs especially royal poodles.

My favorite foster is Olivia, rescued from a puppy mill at age 2
These pics are when I got her and the
change in her with my love and care,
and I will miss her always.

I always wake up in a good mood. I swear it's true!
I am nocturnal and love the night time.

I can be very opinionated sometimes and I have an Irish temper. *grin*
and a long memory if you know what I mean.
My eyes are green.
I am definitely a person of principles.
I'm probably way too sensitive and cry too easily.
Sometimes I spend too much money and I tend
to procrastinate. I work better under pressure.

I truly enjoy an Irish coffee or Porto with with blue cheese and grapes
I had to give up those special
cigarellos "El Guajiro Aromas" from Tenerife, Spain. I quit smoking!! YIPPEEE
My favourite red wine is "Brouilly" by George de Boeuf

it for breakfast with orange juice in bed.

What single cloudless day what soft late rainfall decide that a
vintage shall be great among the others?
Human care can do almost nothing towards it;
IT IS ALL CELESTIAL WIZARDRY, THE ORBITS OF
PLANETS, SUNSPOTS.
Colette, "Prisons & Paradis"

I love candlelight and incense and my Lampe Berger.

I love my fireplace and the smell of burning wood.

I love going barefoot in my garden.

I love to dance.
I would do almost anything for chocolate.

I take joy in spending time with my friends
who come from all walks of life.
My children delight me.
My grandchildren make me proud of my family.
My art students delight me.
I love the elderly for they can teach us much.

I never complain about growing older as it is a priviledge
not everyone gets.
I am diplomatic and fair

I despise discrimination, racism and war in all it's ugly forms.

I love the rain.

I tend to be somewhat impulsive at times.

I don't like arguing and sometimes can appear indifferent
as I try to avoid taking sides....
My kids know this all too well! But I figured as long as
they weren't physical with each other they would work it out.

I love spontaneous people and sailboats.

My day perfume is Cinnabar.
My night perfume is Angel.

I have worked too much.

I am trying to age gracefully.

Did you know that all the darkness in the world cannot
put out one small candle?

S O M E T I M E S

I have been fortunate to have travelled to Cuba, Florida, Jamaica
Dominican Republic, British Virgin Islands,
St. Maarten, Turks & Caicos, St. Lucia & Antigua and a few more.

I have given up my dream to travel to the Seychelles Islands.

The ocean lures me with its salt scented air.
I long for the hypnotic sound of waves rushing to shore
under the beautiful celestial evening sky while
the moonbeams dance across the water.
There, my spirit soars and I feel free and
I long for my next voyage to the sea.

When my angels take me from this life and enter Elysium Fields,
I ask that my ashes be blended with the atmosphere
under the stars and into the ocean so I may become a part of that for all eternity.
If you must bury something, bury my faults, my weaknesses
and all my prejudices against fellow man.
If you do all I have asked, I will live forever.

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life so that when you die,
you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Treasure every breath - growing old is a privilege denied to many.
Think deeply, speak gently, love much, laugh often, work hard, give freely and be kind.
Live so when others think of integrity, honesty, caring and love, they will think of you.

"I shall pass this way but once.
Therefore, any good that I can do or any kindness that I can show,
let me do it now,
for I shall not pass this way again."
