Christine Hall:  

I'm 58, gonna be 59 in a few weeks, married to the best man that God ever created, with 4 wonderful sons, 39, 39, 33 and 29, with 15 grandchildren, 2 boys, 5 girls, and 8 step-grandchildren, and waiting patiently for the inevitable first GREAT-grandchild in the next couple years! I have 2 dau-in-law's (exes), and 2 brand NEW dau-in-law's (to my second and youngest), and 1 VERY happy S/O w/ my middle son, and my oldest granddaughter is married as well. I'm into scrapbooking, needlework, container gardening, reading and local politics. I used to say "I'm Pagan and proud of it", but I have been Born Again and have put all that kind of thing behind me.

My political views are becoming more conservative than they were before, especially the more I see of what's going on in DC these days, but we DO need to use our vast resources to address the invasive and life-sucking poverty creeping throughout this country; (along w/ killing some of this deadly red tape just to START a business, much less keep it running.)

We need to address human and civil rights; find and regain some of the dignity and honor our great country once stood for around the globe. But mostly, my newfound joy in the Lord is my consuming passion and I have made many new Christian friends on Facebook. My husband and I are both handicapped now, but we sure loved what we did before we couldn't do it anymore. (Going to the races of all kinds, local and nationwide, incl. NASCAR, fishing, camping, etc.) Lowell was doing security work (I had been too), and I was a cashier at Wal Mart. I know that sounds like no fun and tacky besides, but I thought it was a BLAST! I met SO many cool folks who came through my aisle, loved most of my co-workers and I worked every day at getting faster and faster and I loved a line that extended back into the racks of clothes - Black Friday and Black Saturday were tiring but a kicking challenge. :D Believe it or not, most folks are in a really good mood on...Expand for more
