I live in a small town in the ‘White Mountains’ of Arizona. My home is a small “shack / cabin” that I built myself which was no small task because I have barley enough mechanical aptitude for Tupperware…..Ok I had a lot of help from my dad and friends.

I share my home with a couple of neurotic dogs who live in the house and a varying number of feral cats who live under the house. We also host a variety of birds who flock around the feeders on the 'high deck' as well as a raccoon who occasionally pays midnight visits for food and water…..Used to have several goldfish in the pond but the raccoon ate them .

I work three days a week as a surgical nurse . Do a couple days a week practicing Massage and Reiki out of my home and occasionally hold Reiki seminars when enough folks show interest.

I enjoy the debates and discussions on Beliefnet and the “company” of many of the folks who post here.

I believe that the Great Spirit expresses through all of us in our joy and laughter as well as in our compassion and kindness towards one another ... I also believe that the highest wisdom that can be expressed in words is found on T-shirts and bumper stickers .
