John Deere Windmill.......WOOOOHOOOO

this was taken at a friends house ( in N.C.)

This is the page where I'll describe myself in more detail.

Ok, what shall I tell you about myself. I like to spend time with my family and friends, and chat with my on line buddies. I don't really go to but 1 chat room. The chat room I go to is Pet_Lovers (a Lycos room). I have met a lot of fun people there. Another fun thing I do is to go cemetery hopping, lol, yes cemetery hopping. Let me explain. My Aunt is doing research on our family tree (my mothers side of the family). We go to the different cemeteries to find the tombstones of our family members to verify the birth & death dates. Doing this is an addiction you probably wouldn't understand unless you've done it. Now, that's all cleared up, lol.

I have only a few hobbies. I like to camp with my family, my farther has a nice motorhome and we camp whenever we get a chance. To us it doesn't have to be summer & hot. We've even left to camp and gotten snowed in,lol. Thank God for campers with heat huh. When we're camping I like to lay in the sun, swim, and ride in my brothers boat. We sometimes roast marshmellows if the place we're at allows fires. I sometimes just sit back and read a good book.  I like to read, my favorite auhther is Danielle Stelle. I don't read as much as I use to because I can not stay off my computer,lol. I guess another thing I like to do is shop, hence my screen name born2shoptr,lol. I shop for clothes,shoes, pocketbooks, anything. I like to shop for things to pretty up my house and just about anything.

Hey what's that?????!!!!!!!!

I don't get to see her enough, she's great fun, bu t we keep in touch im's are great, heehe

I am not into astrology or psyhics but i do like to read my horoscope from time to time just for fun. Below is my Zodiac sign and Chinese Zodiac as well. Take this all with a grain of salt as I do. However, I do feel like some of it could be true, lol. 

HEY WHAT'S YOUR SIGN? LOL
capricorn.gif
I AM A CAPRICORN MY BIRTHDAY OF COURSE IS IN JANUARY

The Capricorn is the the 10th sign of the zodiac. The dates for this sign are Dec.22 to Jan. 19th. The word is that Capricorns are extremely diligent workers with a strong sense of duty and responsibility. They do everything for the long run, and usually enjoy planning for their future. The ruling planet for capricorn is Saturn. This is said to cause them a fair number of struggles to overcome. However, their determination,descipline, and hard work  usually helps them to grow more productive and richer (not welathy rich). Capricorns have a clear perception and have the ability to cut right to the heart of the matter.  They are a persevering individual with a very strong sense of responsibility and duty.

THE TIGER

The years of the Tiger are: 1926 1938 1950 1962 1974 1986 1998  
                                   The Tiger's Destiny
It is said that the Tiger has considerable charm and magetism and that should make it easy for us to achieve our goals in life. But we should be careful not to let confidence turn to recklessness. We have a tendency to loose everything as quickly as we gain it........Uh oh....OOPSY  

Hey I got some of these

What can I say about me. I'm 40 years old. I am a registered nurse by profession, and I work in a small community hospital. I like to spend time with my friends and family, and of course go on line and chat with my buddies.   

I like to collect many things. One of newest obsessions is with John Deere Tractors. I know I know, don't even ask. Here are a few pictures of the toys and collectables I have thus far.

This is my chat buddy John and his dog Sandy they live in Australia. John is a nice guy very dedicated to his family and one proud "Poppy" you should see all the pic I've seen of his grandkids.  If I ever make it to Autralia I'd love to meet his family.

My chat buddy min_pin_mom & her hubby
minhubby.jpg
Min is from Minnesota (USA)

I met Min in Pet_Lovers where I've met all my chat buddies. Not sure how long I've known her really but I know a long time. She is very funny and a lot of fun to chat with. She lives in Minnesota. Not sharing her real name because I forgot to ask her if it was ok. When we're in Pets with all our regular chat buddies it's a blast. Min also comes into the room as the "rabid badger". What a hoot. She really has a way of making you feel special. You outta see her and Dawn when they first enter the room and see each other, they have special nick names they use when they hug hello. I'll keep that a secret for now. OH you wanta know huh? Well, all you have to do is join us in the chat. You first have to download Lycos, lol. 

MY BAAAAAAAAD TRUCK........HEEHEE

I JUST LOVE THIS TRUCK, CHECK OUT THE TAILGATE EXTENDER!!!

Now this is me

I like nothing better than a HOT cup of vanilla nut coffee w/plenty of sugar & cream

I like a good cup of coffee. To ensure this I grind my own fresh beans w/every pot. Then I brew it in my Bunn coffee pot (fresh, hot, coffee in less than 3 minutes). I like to grab a fresh cup and curl up with a good Danielle Steele book, or maybe jump on line in my favorite chat ( Pet_Lovers), or even just snuggling with a blanket (Littlebits in the lap of course) and watching a good movie.  

Back row:Darleen,Pappy, & Steff

STEFF GIVES GENE HELL AT THE ALTER
steffgiveshell.jpg
NO NOT REALLY, LOL, BUT IT SURE LOOKS LIKE IT

This is one of those pictures I was telling you about that the people weren't posing for :)  They were in the middle of the photo session that took place before the ceremony. It was very warm in the room and Steff was tryin her best not to get over heated. However, too look at it you'd think the poor groom was doomed before the vows were ever taken, lmao:)!!! 

THE BRIDES UNCLE CONGRATULATES THE GROOM
stevewarnsgene.jpg
WITH A BIT OF ADVISE TO BOOT

What can I say, the bride is like one of my own, the daughter I never had so there are plenty of wedding photos. This was totally unposed for. The brides uncle Steve went to the groom Gene and took his hand and began to shake as he congratulated him. But Uncle Steve also had a warning for Gene. "You better be good to  her man ". This was totally priceless and I'm glad I got to witness it. To understand this you would have to know them.  

MY PRIDE & JOY...

I'VE RECENTLY ADDED THE BUG SHIELD & WINDOW GUARDS

me and my hubby Buck
buckme.jpg
Man am I lucky to have gotten him to photo studio

Buck and I were married on May 17,1980. We were sweethearts thru high school and married a year after I graduated. We have different interest most of the time and can argue with the best of em, lol. I let him ride his Harley whenever he wants, and he don't gripe cause I'm on line all the time. That's the secret, you can have your space as long as occasionally ya meet up.hahaha. 

I have a digital camera now and I've always liked to take pictures. I even considered a photography class at one time but never did it. The good thing about a digital is you can see better what you're gonna get before ya snap so I'm not cuting everyones head off,lol. I think the best pictures are the ones noone is expecting you to take. You don't havew to be sneaky really just catch people doing whatever it is they are doing and snap. I've gotten a few good ones that way. Although most of what you see is people that is not all I like to take pictures of. I like nature shots as well.  As  I get them, from time to time I'll share them with you. Hope you enjoy:) 

This opossum had been hiding from the neighboor's cat under my husbands truck, he made the mistake of coming out and the cat chased him up the tree. When the cat gave up I grabbed the digital, lol. Isn't he cute?
