Let's play...."Interview"!!!!

That answered just about everything Shirley, and you spent some time on it, I just took it off the top of my head.  You didn't say what you would like to learn!

Gemstones =  sapphire - not better reason than I like blue, lol

Favorite gemstones are diamonds which are my birthstone and Blue Topaz and Peridot because the colors makes me feel good! 

This looks fun!

Aquamarine - but I don't have any. Just like the colour. My engagement ring is yellow sapphires and diamonds which is very pretty but I don't collect jewellery anymore after the burglary.

What is your best achievement?

Best achievement...rising my two girls on my own for so long, and still keeping my head above water.

Best childhood memory?

I hear that James! I didn't like school very much either...the work that is!!

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

ah thats a hard one,at present it must be england cos everyone wants to come here.

there are lots of nice places to live,one of the nicest places i fancyis a small village in southern spain high up in the mountains   --mijas i have been there a few times anyone not been its worth a visit thats if you like old spain. 

Stephanie, understand how you feel, we just got $7,000 worth of kid's new bikes and an ATV stollen last night....and do I dare say this, but I suspect an ex-neighbor in our area..reason why...I think I saw her hubby and their car in an recent Furniture hiest on camera...on the news...they live in the state north of us right now.  They would know where to come and get them out of my backyard. But I guess because you didn't see the person, you really can't accuse them exactly...but I am wondering why my dogs didn't bark last night...they have been barking at people walking by recently. Perhaps they "knew" whomever did this?  Our house insurance stopped paying out for "vandalism" some years back. They also stopped earthquake insurance polices being available. They don't pay for flooding either.You have to carry an separate policy for that. I think it's getting time to not own much these days because of others. They violate the 10 commandments.

Sometimes I tell myself that I would like to live in Canada, but I am not sure I can take the cold up there. So I don't know where I would like to live, I pretty much leave in it the hands of "God" to guide my life to safety and to be in the right places as I need to be..so where I end up...hard telling. I'm getting to old any more to worry about such things. I don't have the money right now, and people as you can see are stripping me blind of anything I do have these days, so I don't excpect to get to far under those circumstances.

My favorite gemstone is the Lindy Star Blue Saphire and Pearls...but I would like an godl ring with diamonds around an watermelon cut tourmaline stone also...they are also rare to find these days. Since the stones come in both tourquoise with pink or green with pink...esp the watermelon cut...not sure which one I'd prefer...I don' t ever expect to get one though...people are not "givers" to me in my life...I'm lucky to win $2 in an lottery at times. Only thing I've really won was an small ceramic box when I was an kid from an local church in an contest. Elks lodge I won about $100 before my baby was born many years ago, but that's pretty much it. Nothing realy "big" or expensive. I think that is because I was an "Reverand" in an past life also...though I don't think at that time I had an church to support, and back when they supported themselves pretty much...took their ministry out to the people.
