Advocate, Caregiver, Mother, Daughter, Widow, Christian, former Corporate Executive & Consultant (business planning & finance). Lived in big cities & small. Top of the world & crushed & renewed. Seen a lot, done a lot. Alive thanks to God!
I'm a passionate person - passionate about everything - about life, love, beauty, my God, truth, justice, our liberties, compassion, caring... even about my food, my dogs, a luxurious shower massage, a beautiful sunset...
An incurable romantic, at age 62 I'm combining new and old skills to share the best Romantic Beach Wedding Ideas, Unique Beach Wedding Ideas, and Romantic Beach Wedding Dresses together with resources for romantic beach wedding destinations, beach wedding favors, accessories and other needs. After all, for those of us "of a certain age and young at heart," romance can be more real and beautiful than the young could ever imagine!
I always said I wouldn't start the second half of my life until I turned sixty, and then I would do it right, based upon what I learned in the first half. Well...
That's still my story, and I'm sticking to it!
