Work:
Writer - I just finished compiling (and writing) a book called, "Bullycide in America: Moms Speak Out About the Bullying/Suicide Connection." It's written by myself and other moms who have lost their children to "Bullycide" (www.Bullycide.org). I am also doing some Consulting and Speaking about Jared, my personal experiences, and bullying research (www.BrendaHigh.com). My newest website - www.HeroesInTheCrowd.com will soon be up and running. This is the website that will give schools the actual methods to solve the bullying once and for all. Parents can get some great ideas too. Politics:
Favorite Movie -
Gone with the Wind; Just can't beat Vivian Leigh & Clark Gable.
My
Favorite Music - Ol' Time Rock and Roll - as long as the lyrics aren't nasty and the guitars don't scream. I like most Classical music, especially Antonio Vivaldi - The 4 Seasons. I like some Country music - if the guitars don't 'twang' - Big Band Era and Swing music - Glen Miller (I liked the movie too, with James Stewart) - Santana, Old Beatles music, Old Carpenters music, Yanni and my new favorite, JOSH GROBAN! I like just about anything that has a catchy tune to sing to, and a good beat to dance to. When I was in college, I even won some dance contests, ...and, believe it or not, I used to do 'The Bump'! Favorite Exercises - Walking - I don't jog because I ultimately will trip over something, I'm really clumsy. In the past I have enjoyed (or tried to enjoy) rollar-blading, softball, tennis, golf, swimming, ping pong, billiards, hiking, 4 Wheeling, water skiing, snow skiing, surfing, snowmobiling, fishing, horseback riding and bowling. ...Someday, I might try skydiving, when I've gone completely crazy! Favorite types of Books - I like self-improvement books, Scriptures and spiritually uplifting books, truthful and educational books, and quick, easy to read, books. I also like Textbooks - Sometimes I like 'hard to read' books. When I read the Newspaper, I skip the propaganda in the editorials, but I like Letters to the Editor. I wish I could read more but I don't have much time... I'm always working on webpages.
Things I can't do - I'm not a very good cook... I burn eggs, ...and almost our house at the same time. I'm a lousy decorator and I have no idea where to put things on a wall, like, "Oh, this is a good spot, there's nothing on that part of the wall!" As mentioned above, I don't jog. I also won't ride on fast rollar-coasters, mostly because I'll throw-up. Also, I won't eat sugar free chocolate - If it's not the real thing it's not worth having. I don't sleep well; I'm always thinking about all the things I want to do the next day and I can't sleep in church ...someone has to tell my husband when to wake up. Video posted on YouTube ..
