A Bit About Myself

As I indicated on my Home Page, my name is Malinda. I'm a native Californian and still live in the city where I was born. I love this State and can't imagine living anywhere else. We have it all: the Pacific Ocean, mountains, valleys, rivers and desert; all fairly close to most places. We have our problems too, but all-in-all I think it's a great place to live.

I became a Christian when I was 6 years old. Although I've had a major stumble or two along the way, the Lord has watched over me and kept me safe due to His love and my Mom's prayers. God is good and He loves to be a part of our lives on a daily basis; so I talk to, complain to, and try to seek Him all the time!

I have worked for the State of California in a clerical capacity since 1990. I have a great group of people to work with and a varied work load, so things stay interesting most of the time.

I love to read; especially mysteries by Ann Perry and Lillian Jackson Braun, to name just two of the authors who's books I try not to miss, and poetry ranging from the sonnets of Wm. Shakespeare to the limericks of Ogden Nash. I also like to listen to various styles of music from Celtic-influenced pop to light jazz.

Then there are cats. I've had at least one cat sharing my life since I was 7 years old. Currently I have 3: Timmy, Katey and Sonny. They all have their own little personalities, quirks, likes, and dislikes: brats one and all and they rule the roost around here.

Well, that's a bit about myself. I hope you can take a moment to look around the rest of my site. Thank you for dropping by and God bless.
