When you get what you want in your struggle for self. And the world makes you king for a day, Just go to a mirror and look at yourself. And see what that man has to say. For it isn't your father or mother or wife, Whose judgment upon you must pass, The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life Is the one staring back in the glass.
Hi! My name is Cheryl (CDS). I'm a single Mom to two great kids & have three terrific grandkids. I moved to Sugar Island 16 years ago & absolutely LOVE it! I also hit the BF lottery! He(MPK) built his house (KFC)on Sugar Island. I helped with as much as I could, as well as the decorating, landscaping & gardening.
His Mom called the woods there, "the enchanted forest". And she showed me some rare wildflowers called "Nodding Trilliums" that were growing in a complete circle. She said it was called a "fairy ring". I'd heard about them.....but had never seen one until then.
We live on an island. We have some sandy beaches & even seagulls in the summer. We don't have palm trees....but we do have pines, firs & tamaracks. And we don't have pelicans.....but we do have eagles, owls, loons and swans. We don't have manatees....but we do have sturgeons. Um.....and moose, fox and black bear! We don't have hurricanes.....but we do have blizzards. And we don't have the heat.....but we do have the cold.
We don't live in the south....we live in "Dah UP! Eh?!"
