I am a born again Christian, Southern Baptist Preacher's daughter & Deacon's wife. I have been married for over 24 years to the best guy in the world (Teddypossum) with three fantastic kids and a wonderful daughter-in-law who are the joy of my life! They are all on SingSnap. (MPZ, Sythrim, Poleklaws & PossumProxie). I enjoy spending time with my kids and their friends.

I am an avid reader.... mostly murder mysteries and forensic/lawyer novels. I love CSI - Bones- Law and Order type shows. Also into reality Extreme Makeover, Clean House, What Not to Wear, Biggest Loser, American Idol, and So You Think You Can Dance type shows.

Occupation wise, I am an Insurance Underwriting Assistant for a Commercial Insurance Broker.

Began playing flute in 4th grade. Played classical & marching band through high school. Started singing in church very young and starting writing poetry and songs at about 13 years old. Most of my poetry though is emotionally dark and doesn't translate to music too well. Taught myself to play the guitar and play some piano in high school.. although the only instrument I play much now is guitar. Performed in several church musicals in my teens and as an adult. Sang second soprano and alto in my teens in a girls choir and was in the high school choir all 4 years. Currently I am singing soprano in our 5 member church praise team every Sunday and sing solos and duets for church services and special events.
