Merry Meet, 
Let's see...how to intro myself. I am in my Crone stage at 52 and though I wish at times that I were younger, I am pleased with the "me" I am now.

My daughter Janet, is 34 and lives with her fiancé and her 3 children. She and Andy, her fiancé are practicing Wiccan's as is her eldest daughter Jennifer. Her daughter Tiffany is a Christian... (we're not sure how that happened...LOL) and her son, Brian, the youngest hasn't chosen a path yet. This will be their first year living in Pennsylvania and I'm hoping the winter doesn't frighten them back to Arizona.

Both my daughter and I are Domestic Violence survivors. (I am a firm believer that we are all teachers and students in life and that portion of my life contained many lessons.)

My husband Michael is studying for his Correlian Second Degree status. We are still newlyweds having been married since May of 2006. I am pleased to say that I have learned my past lessons well as he is not abusive in any way and that my biggest complaint about him is that he is constantly on the go. (I mean he just wears me out!)

I have been an ordained minister with Universal Life Church since September, 2002. I have been active in my participation on the forums, even to the point of joint ownership with my husband (also a minister with ULC) of my own forum, which is predominantly focused on the Pagan community. http://www.ulctribal.com/forum/

I am also a writer and have 2 books published, both fiction. One is a fun book about time travel called Reflections in Time.

The second is a book I wanted to write for many years about Domestic Violence called A Life Sentence. My books are on sale at Lulu. http://stores.lulu.com/ohcowgirl

I also write a blog about Domestic Violence called A Woman with a Mission.

Having been a victim and having worked in a shelter for abused women in Arizona, I consider myself an expert on the issue. I feel it is my path to help as many women avoid abuse as possible.

I spent many years searching for a spiritual path that encompassed my beliefs, especially the belief that God is a woman. I accepted the Craft beliefs with very little trouble and now am in the process of expanding my knowledge to use in all areas of my life.

I guess that covers the highlights.

Bright and Loving Blessings,
Connie
