Welcome to Runningwolf's Home Page
OSIYO(Hello)! My name is Runningwolf and my Native American ancestry is Cherokee. I have known this all my life, but, although interested, I never learned a lot about my ancestry until I got on-line a few years ago and a whole new world opened up for me. Last year, a dear friend gave me the name of "Runningwolf", which I am very happy with, the "wolf" part coming from my great love for these beautiful animals.
I have many diverse interests, and I hope I will eventually add pages about all of them to this site. I have always loved crafts and hand work. I am trying to make a dream come true by beginning my own business. You will find that I will have pages on my site about the business I am just beginning consisting mostly of Native American style jewelry and crafts.
Also, I will hope to have pages about my years as a Pediatric nurse, my favorite animals (wolves), and my life in Africa in the 80's. Photography, another of my favorite activities, will be included as I set up a page to sell the notecards I make. Called "Nature Notes", they are notecards with photos I have taken all over the country and around the world. I also can make custom cards from your pictures.
Included also, will be a page dedicated to my Mom, one of the dearest people in the world. She was diagnosed with Alzhiemer's Disease two years ago. I am her caretaker and am teaching her to string beads on large-sized cords to make sort of "primitive" style necklaces. I hope I can sell a few of them for her and donate the proceeds to the Alzhiemer's Association.
I hope you will enjoy my site! I would love to hear your comments and suggestions via e-mail.
The Music you are listening to, is "Amazing Grace", sung in Tsa-la-gi (Cherokee), by yhe singing group, "Walela". Hope you enjoy it!
Wado (Thank you),
Runningwolf
