About Charlene

Hi there!

My name is Charlene, I am the mother of my 4 wonderful children. I have been married to my sweetheart for 11.5 years and intend to make it another 50!! I value open minds and a desire to learn a new perspective. I think that my friends would speak of my easy going nature and predictability. I LOVE bright colors like yellow and orange but on the other hand I am also very girly and adore pinks and purples, I guess my favorite color is Rainbow.

I like to read science fiction books especially if they are written by Raymond E. Fiest. If I could go back in time and live in a different time period I would choose somewhere between the 20′s and the 50′s, I also would love to be a part of the Victorian era (I love the dresses). I live by the code of “Live and let Live”.

Charlene S.
