About You:

I am a mother of 3and a state police dispatcher and love to read, sew and cross stitch in my spare time. I have read almost every JP book with the exception of a few. I really do have them, just haven't read them yet. Right now is a very sad time for me. We just lost a dedicated member of the Oregon State Police. The Troopers that I work for are like my family and always will be. God be with them every step of the way.

What is your favorite James Patterson book?

The Jester but I love reading all of his books that he writes with co-authors.

How many Patterson's have you read?

Whatever I can get my hands on!

Why are you here?

Any friend of James is a friend of mine!

Getting back on track

Hello everyone,

Sorry I haven't been very faithful in keeping up with everyone. Life has been very rough the past month or so. My 17 yr old son had a bad setback with his additction. He was clean for 10 months and his girlfriend broke up with him. Well his so called friends decided he needed a little pick me up and gave him an almost lethal dose of meth mixed with extacy. It almost killed him. I spent 7 hours in the emergency room holding him, watching him flat line twice praying to God to let… Continue

I'm Back

It's been awhile my friends and I am so sorry that I have not been on-line in so long. You see this nasty little Trojan Worm got on my hard drive and nearly worked it's way through my entire hard drive. It was very very ugly.

Fortunately for me I have a very good friend at work whose husband works on computers and he took on this very high task of eradicating this little sucker. He said it was quite the challenge and if I would've gotten a few more worms, (ewwwwwwwwww that just sounds so gross)… Continue

A New Beginning.

To all my great friends of the James Patterson Community. Thanks for all of your love and support during these trying times of going through my divorce.

The divorce is still in the works but I have moved out of the house and into my own. It is so awesome to be free and to do things that I want to do and not have to answer to anyone telling me what I should be doing.

My oldest, Jacob, is back living at home with me and it is soooooo good to have him home. He has changed so much from being in Fo… Continue

I just happened to notice your comment for James about Jeff Shafer. Just wanted to let you know that he's been permanently banned from the community. Pretty mean guy...

At 3:20pm on September 4, 2009, sheila said…: Well, nice to hear from you. I'm very sorry about your son. What does he say about doing these things again? I'm relieved he didn't go too far, but almost is just as scary. I hope and pray for him to lose the urge to have that stuff around him. I know it's hard, but he's got to see that he has people who love him, and want him to be okay. Tell the ex to bite it! There are things that parents can't control. God konws you wouldn't let anything happen to the others anyway...

A firefighter! sexy...haha! I'm glad that you're moving on in that sense. You're a beautiful woman, and age is just a number. I would have never guessed that age for you anyhow. If he adores you, then he sees you through and through! I'm happy for you. When you haven't dated in awhile, it can get hard to do, but you're out there trying and I think it's great.
I am still with Timmy. I have recently moved in with him. He treats me like a baby. We are trying very hard to have a life and do things the both of us want to do. Mom is hating life, and giving me a hard time, but I just keep praying everyday that she accepts him. Right now, her nor my brother will come visit me. I have to come here, and when I've worked 11 hours, they still think I should spend 2-3 here and then go home to do what I need to do. It's stressful, but he is what I want, and I'm trying to hang in there.

You remember that I love you and I'm glad you're going for happy too. Jacob needs prayer, and for none of us to give up on him....can't wait to hear from you again...

At 8:42pm on August 30, 2009, Alexandra said…: Hey, how are you? I'm okay, I guess. My hip's been killing me so bad I haven't been to school since last Monday, and the changed my pain medicine, and that didn't work so they changed it back. But it's no longer helping, just enough to survive.
They did a special MRI on me Thursday and they stuck me again in the hip! They did a test the week before and I'm tried of them sticking needles into my hip joint and injecting dye into, it's not fun, very painful. So it's been hurting agian:( Oh well, hopefully they'll get the answers they need to help me.
I know, I think he's starting to figure it out, but he's making everything so hard. But then again it does help that I seem to hate everyone but my parents, Bella,and a few others. This anti social thing that comes with the pain, along with suidice thoughts, fun huh?
I found these fun little moving pictures, I'll put one at the end of this comment and I just love them! So, how was your weekend? I've just been watching House Bunny and Adventureland over and over for like a week, haha. And for now, it's stupid, this week that kid I want to win America's got Talent is doing a performance against a lot of good people, so I'm like having nightmares that he won't make it, haha, it's silly, but if I had high speed I'd be using all my friends emails addresses to get in 10 votes since you can do 10 votes per method, and yeah, I'm getting obsessive on how I'm gonna try and help him make it. So yeah.
Well, that's my life right now, I don't know how I can complain though, I can't believe that about your son, that's terrible, I hate that that's happening to you. Do they know why he started using again? I'm really sorry about that, sincerly I am. Is there anything I can do to help you?
I have a facebook, I'll look you up:) and that sucks about your computer:(
Well, I'll talk to you soon, love you!

At 5:05am on July 31, 2009, sheila said…: It's been more muggy than anything. I call it sticky hot...haha! I hate it so bad when it's like that too. You can't even get out and take a walk even in the evening time. It may help you to take a break on dating for a little while, but try and not let yourself get into a rut. I did that once, and didn't date for about 3-4 years. When I started back again, I was so lost. I'm still learning with Timmy now, and we've been together for over a year now. But it may be good for you to get to know who you are at this time. You've been his wife for a long time, and the real you hasn't had a chance in showing. So maybe that's why you're having trouble in dating??? Tell me to shut up if ya wanna! I just want to see you comfortable and happy. Keep your head up and things will start to come together for you, I'm sure. I hope the boys are doing good, and all is well with them too. You take care of yourself and I love ya and will ttys

At 6:36pm on July 23, 2009, sheila said…: Hey Lori, glad to have you back. Welcome back to the dating world too! They do that sort of thing sometimes, and I know it can stun, piss off, and hurt you. But I"m so proud that you just got right back on the horse! That's the kind of attitude you have to have in these situations. His loss.
I hope the recent date went well for you. There is someone out there wondering where the heck Miss Right is! Me and Timmy do okay, our biggest problems come from outsiders. But we've made a pact that no one except one of us can mess us up. So I"m really hoping we make it forever.

Mom hasn't been tested anymore, but she is on the heart meds and all. I worry about her all the time, she will not exercise in anyway, and I know that would help with CHF. I do all I can for her though, I never deny her anything if I can help it.

I hope you come on and let me know what's going on with you soon. I Love ya girl, you just hang in there!!!!! I'm always on your side. ttys
