Shirley's Story

Hey Hey Howdy Ya'll Wow high school seems so long long ago...Wait I'm 50 so yeah it was a long long time ago..lol...Most probably don't remember me as I did not graduate. I got married instead and in June of 77 had a beautiful baby boy who is now 33 yrs old with 5 children of his own. In 1982 I had a precious daughter who is now 28. Both are doing wonderful with their lives and I couldn't be prouder. Ive worked several places,but have been disabled since 1999 with back problems. I stilll write poems,short stories etc. Love photography..taking my camera out and catching shots of the most amazing things that we often in this busy world forget to stop and look at or simply do not see them. I still have my artistic talents..love to do canvas painting or anyhing that you can paint a pretty picture on. I paint raw ceramic pieces for a friend of mine at the coast. She sends them up to me I paint them,clear coat them and send them back. She then donates them to PAWS to sell to help with the adoption and care of homeless or abused animals. I've been married 4 times..I knooo.".OUCH"..lol...But my children are by my first marriage to Kenny Dellinger or as some of you remember him.."Pickle" We were married for 12 yrs and to this day are still good friends. My 2nd marriage was abusive and that lasted about 3 yrs..my third marriage..he passed away and ...Expand for more
the 4th just decided he wasn't happy..so guess what ya'll...I ain't doin it again...lol...nope nope nope..not meeeee!!!! I am currently in a live in relationship and have been the last 3 yrs..He's a wonderful man but just not gonna be any wedding bells a ringin.. Some might say I had some rough yrs and maybe I did but I like to think that it only made me a stonger person,learn to forgive easier and just keep going. I am part Cherokee so I practice and study the Native American traditions,healing and spirituality. My given Indian name is Quietfeather..given to me by an elder in Cherokee NC. I am proud of my heritage .I try not to count the bad things that happen or have happened to me..instead I try and count my Blessings. So heres my advice..Smile..it just might brighten someones day..Live..Laugh...Love...Its worth it.. Shirley From my Mom who will be 94 in May of 2011..She hates no one,,loves unconditional,,puts her faith and love in the Lord and her family. Loves to act silly and funny. She recently had a stoke 3 wks ago and is now in rehab and is starting to do all the things the docs said she would never do. We all accept the fact that things can change from good to bad in a matter of minutes but as long as she'd still fighting we'll fight with her. She has a long long road a head of her. So yes my Mom is my hero and my inspiration.
