I am 53 years old. My first name is Juanita, but I prefer Darlene.

I have my roots strongly planted in the country. My partner and I built our home in an old hay field in 2005. We did alot of the work in the house and on the grounds ourselves. I usually tend to the flower beds and my partner worries about the vegtable garden. We live a simple life composting, recycling and growing our own vegetables. We work hard during the week and attend church on Sundays. I am spiritual, creative, a cat lover and a quiet person.

My interests other than Photography include Web Design, Photoshop, Crocheting, Tarot reading and making bird houses from the gourds that my partner grows for me.

I have 2 dogs and 7 cats. Below is my family.


Chris

Chris, my partner. She is a farmer at heart. She grew up in the country.

 


emily

Emily, my pound puppy. She is the best dog ever. She has adapted to farm life quite nicely.


thor

Thor, my second dog. He has an invisable fence because of his manners (or lack thereof). He's a famous vole hunter. It's impossible to keep him clean.


christy

Christy, my oldest. She was given to me for Christmas 14 years ago.


zoey

Zoey, She's our huntress. She keeps the mice away.

 


milly

Milly, She prefers dogs to other cats for companions.

 


katrina

Katrina, She was named after a huricane. She was just a baby when I got her and she had to be bottle fed. She has an attitude when she doesn't get things her way thus her name. I adore her.

 


socks

Gem-Socks, She likes the outdoors even in the dead of winter. She is our Snow Kitty.

 


kalie

Kalie, My shadow. I have so many pictures of her because she follows me everywhere I go especially when she sees I have brought my camera.

 


baby

Baby, She came to live with us Febuary 2010. She was a stray that my friend Kathy fed. Kathy kept asking me to take her. I finally said yes. I don't regret it. She has made herself at home and planted her roots much like myself. She is our limit. Sadly, I have a limit.
