Hi This is Linda aka Lynn as many of my friends call me, I've decided to move my bio into its own little space, as I wanted to dedicate the Bakersfield page to the Special people I've met in my life.
Hello, I feel a bit in the spotlight...Well where do I start. Hmm, I'm 5'6" tall [ok i'm probably adding half an inch...:)], Long strawberry blond/reddish hair down past my waist. With a lil white highlights now that it's 2011. Physically,...hmmm no complaints so far. I was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota March 03, [????]
My Interest include many things [Herbelist- Naturalist [I didn't say nudist ok:)] computerist, poetrist...hehhee...its hard to keep up with me.
I've been kidded about doing so many projects... I enjoy reading self-help books--understand people; Herb library collection, then to the other extreme..hehe..computers--internet/ webpage stuff.
My lifes journey has taken me down some hard roads. I tend to dream about things that give me insite to what is going on around me, in my life, or may be a warning to me. Keen intuition has kept me safe & I try to be an optimistic person.
I've come to realise & believe God has me where I'm suppose to be.
One day I'd like to write a novel or biography...I hope to inspire others who are in a situation where they've lost their identity to give them hope that they can find it again. One of the best books I've ever read was by Robin Norwood "Women who love too much". That helped me tremendously.
Historically: My father was in the Air Force coming in from Japan, his family lived in Minnesota. He met my mother through a mutual friend. I'm not completely sure how he found little Tupman :) but they were wed young and had my brother who is one year older than I. Then myself premature by 3 months. I was born on March 3 weighing only 3lb's and 3 oz. now isn't that unique :)
If there hadn't been a specialist for pediatric's I probably wouldn't be here, as I did apparently have my heart stop.
When I had my last son, I also came close to dying. Although they [the hospitals would never admit this.] All I know is the dream I had, the feeling of total completeness, and peace. I also know later revealed that "code blue" was proclaimed and my husband and sister-in-law were pushed out of the room. It gave me a whole new way of feeling about death thou. I don't like pain any more than the other person..but I dont fear death itself.
In the past several years I've developed & was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, degenerative disc disease -neck and lower spine- and discovered Spina Bifida in my S1 area. I've since officially ruled "full disability" due to an in-operable bone spur in my c-7 /neck, but I still try to do things I love to do.
