I am a 40-something-year-old mother of four delightful children, have been married for 22 years to my carpenter husband, and live in a 1921 farm-style house. I find the most joy in my garden, growing and harvesting herbs and flowers and caring for our pet rabbits.
I have a 21-year-old son, a 19-year-old son, a 16-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly (and very funny) 11-year-old daughter who is homeschooled.
I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I'm a book lover, bird lover, gardener and aspiring herbalist. I seek no help for my thrift store addiction. I do medical transcription from home part-time.

My Symphony
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884
Dear Lynn,
Oh, I thought you were leaving for good! Whew!
I wish you the best of luck with the yellow-may your bruises heal quickly!
Love,
Marqueta
Best of luck!!
I didn’t realize you were training for a yellow belt! I hope it went well!
Michele
Marqueta, thank you! I did it. No bruises, thankfully!
Thanks, Kate!
Thank you, Michele. I haven’t really said anything about it. I’m taking Karate with Joseph and Michaela. Things did go well!
