More about Kimberly:"Am a mom of 3 beautiful grown kids and am now a brand new grandma to baby Grace! They make me laugh and I'm proud of them all. I love them more than anything! I love winters with cold and snow even though I live in the desert. I could live with winter forever. I love watching the snow fall. I put up with Az summers because I love my family and can't be apart from them. I also love the beach and body surfing the waves, laying in the sand and listening to the sounds of the sea. I love life even without an antidepressant. I feel like dancing to the beat. I work because I have to and want to. I hate laundry but love my home space. I love having fresh flowers in my home and burning smelly candles and I love waking up to the birds singing in my yard. The hummingbirds and finches are my favorite. My favorite TV show is Criminal Minds. I love my Lord and Saviour and enjoy communicating with Him. I'm nostalgic and just have to have lots of pictures. My fav foods are runzas, Mexican chips and Salsa, ice cream and my mom's homecooked dinners. But I also love hideaway restaurants and sitting outside for dessert or a snack with friends or family. Movie popcorn is yummy but only in the theater. My mom is the best and her basset, Chester, is my kissy dog. I miss her other bassets, Odie, Henry and Tony. I love walking through wildflowers in the mountains and riding the ski lifts. I miss my Boston Terrier, Max! I still cry over losing him. I have a love/hate relationship with running. Reading is a passion of mine and my favorite author is Rosemunde Pilcher because of her detailed stories from En...Expand for more
gland and Scotland. But I also love the Girl with the Dragon Tatoo series and stories like those. Foreign movies are amazing! I want to learn Russian and French and will work on it someday. I love traveling and movies and music of every kind. I'd love to live in a cabin and my dream job is to own a B & B. I want to get a fireplace. I love swimming underwater and riding my bike with the wind blowing in my face. I love living in America and being free and I want it to stay that way forever. I am proud of our military and all of those who protect our country. I miss my step dad, dad and Aunt Ann and Aunt Kay. I hate sickness and death and the grief that is part of it. But I believe there is life after death. Don't tell me differently. I love diamonds and flowers! It's tough getting older especially when my brain thinks I'm young. I hate fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis but live in denial. I love my friends and especially my high school friends that I have recently reacquainted with. Miss you all! Thank God for facebook! Except I hate playing fb games and yet can't seem to stop. Am going to soon. Am a cokaholic and need to go into rehab for it. I love my bed. My home is my sanctuary and I love soaking in a candlelit bath. I'm a Husker football fanatic but I also love my alma mater ASU Sun Devils. I love my Cardinal football even though they stink. Fitz is my fav player. I don't smoke or drink-just don't like it. I love teddy bears and pedicures. I love playing music for the skaters at the Ice Den. The young skaters and their coaches all make me smile. And of course I love being cold and sitting by the ice. Many don't know that I went to school at UNL for a short time and then graduated from ASU and that I taught fitness classes for almost 20 years, even running my own aerobics studio. Now I never set foot in a gym. It's called burnout and fibromyalgia/osteoarthritis. All exercising now is for fun and outside. I love life and believe we are here to love one another. Life is too short for hatred or anger. And now, am a new puppy mom to Otis, a cute little pug my son bought for me after losing Max. It doesn't take away the pain of losing my best friend but I do love the little pup. Guess my son thought I was a lonely old lady after losing my Max, ha! To the military: Remember, you have taken up the highest calling. You are defending our country & protecting the innocent from harm. You are carrying a message of hope! Isaiah says, "To the captives, 'come out,' & to those in darkness, 'be free'! Mom of three, a black Halloween cat named Bandit and a pug puppy HEHE!".
