Julie is this beautiful soul you just have to know. it's been 2 years now that I have known her, and every time I see her, I love her even more. She is sweet and loving and such a wonderful "old soul".
This woman has been around too! 18 years of marriage and 3 beautiful daughters have not driven the inner child out of her. She has raised them well too. All are intelligent, have talent, are independent, and have spunk! Well adjusted young ladies that have their Mum 'n Da to thank for a well done upbringing. especially in light of some personal tragedies along the way.
So what can I say about Julie that has not already been said? She is loving and gentle, yet fierce when defending those that need defending. She is humble and unassuming, even when she knows she is awesome. She is honest and forthright, and trustworthy. Julie is a good mother and spouse, putting her families needs before her own. She is a hard worker, intelligent and resourceful.
Whim shines with an inner light. It's a hidden light, most people don't get to see it though. It takes time for that inner light to be revealed, but it is worth it as it is a blinding light of beauty and love and well-being. She has her troubles too, but you would never know it unless she shows it too you. There is such depth to her, it's hard to know what will be shown next to you, as the many facets are all different.
So let's just say that Julie is this awesome package filled with joy and love, and to find that, you have to be prepared to do a little unwrapping.

Wow! What a woman! She's totally rocked me from the first night I met her. We won't tell *that* story here (ahem!!). Suffice it to say that I've adored her more and more as I've gotten to know her better and better.
She has so many wonderful adjectives: Kind-hearted. Tender. Intelligent. Deep. Funny. Witty. Passionate. LOYAL. (that one needs capital letters.) Discreet. She's always the first one people go to for help, because she's so trustworthy. Even when she's been hurting, she's always been among the first to reach out a hand to me when I'm down. And yet, as her current Tribe avatar shows, we always have a rockin' good time. (Note: Do not take advantage of her kindhearted goodness or several of us WILL hunt you down and harm you in some way!)
Whim--Julie--you are SUCH a rockstar. Perhaps someday you'll realize it. We all totally love you.

Whim sounds like she'd be this little sprite, all bubbles
and dandelions floating on a summer breeze. But
don't let her name fool ya. She's really as deep as
the ocean, and just as much a life force. In her depth
you will find many interesting things. I am most
impressed by her wisdom about a great many things
and her ability to be both a wonderful mom and a
true friend. She is one of the most loyal people I
know. But she's also creative and fun. So many
things all wrapped up in one person.
That's Whim!
love you,
Vixx

I gotta say, nice nice nice and wonderful to boot. Thank you for existing. You move our species forward with all you are. You're some kind of sunshine.
As many of you know, I love to take photos at various gatherings and events. I also love to share them. Lately I am seeing quite a few of my images (of you!) being used in peoples' blogs and profile and that makes me so happy. I don't really want to start watermarking all of them, but please do me a flavor.. just give a leetle photo credit wherever you post? Thanks!

"I know now that it's possible to love and give yourself to someone completely, while still being able to give the same to others, to allow them to accept love from others, as well as accepting love from others, yourself. That the love given to one does not have to take away from the love given to another."
~Datig
"Whim is not frivolous. Being frivolous is intentionally doing something superficial, irresponsible, inconsequential. Whim is following an urge whose origin and purpose are unseen. The unseenness of the whim is not randomness, but profundity and significance. Whim is like intuition, only more active, being an urge to do or make. [This blog] is born of a suspicion that whim has something to do with the fact anything is happening at all." ~Nicola
"Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."

about me
My name is Julie. I'm married and have three teenage daughters who rock my world. I love to meet new people, and enjoy going on adventures. I'm fairly liberal, extremely open-minded and loving. I have an artistic streak that I don't use enough, and am a great cook.
Here is a blog post from last year I wrote on love.

Love Rocks! Forgiveness does too. Holding on to past hurts closes you off to love. Love and forgiveness lead to understanding. There is room for all. The more we give, the more we are open to receiving, and the more we love, the more we give.
I hope that however you celebrate love, today and every day, you do it fully, lusciously, and enjoy the living here. R...

Roasted vegies with quinoa...
Boil the water for the quinoa (1:2) with a handful each of golden raisins and pepitas, and when you add the quinoa season with garlic powder, coriander, and cumin, salt and pepper.
The vegies are zucchini, yellow squash, eggplant, red bell pepper, and sweet potato.
It thought the quinoa might be a little bland, but it worked out really well.
