About The Queen

The Queen

​

Hi!  I'm glad you are here.  My name is JQ and I really was born a Queen!  My middle name is Queen and I have obviously learned how to embrace that.  

​

I am a little bit of everything all balled in to one.   I could take a moment to quote Steve Miller Band and if I'm being honest at least 75% of those "I'm a... blanks" are true about me, but I won't do that!   (I bet at least one person googled the lyrics to that song just to see what all they list out!)   I have semi-decent grammar; I have a very sarcastic attitude/personality and I tend to make jokes when most think it is in appropriate!  I sing (a lot); I dance when I think no-one is watching and I believe in real life fairy tales

​

The Duke

​

Duke is my side-kick.  He is a Lab/Great Dane mix and we have only been together two short years.  He is a rescue and he did a great job of picking me out!  Yes, I am aware that our names go together perfectly and no... I didn't do that on purpose.   

​

Why am I here?

​

Well I am here to write.  I hope to write a little bit about the good times and a little bit about the bad times.  I hope to share my love for music and my experiences while traveling.  I hope to maybe help someone see things a little differently, but most importantly and the real reason I started this blog... I miss the hell out of my Dad.  He passed away from Cancer in April and the last few months have been a never ending roller coaster.   I hope to feel better and maybe help someone else feel better about their loved ones cancer diagnosis or missing someone.

​

If you were to ask my inner circle they would probably tell you that I don't share enough or talk about my feelings enough.  I know that a lot of them are worried about me because they feel that I bottle too much inside.  I'll be honest... Sometimes my thoughts are too loud for my head and I have to get them out somehow.  I started out just writing to myself in word documents, but eventually I would find reasons not to do that.  My hope is that with a blog I might get one or two people who visit my site on the regular and maybe I might start to feel like I owe it to them to write out loud.  I don't ever expect you to read everything I write or comment or come up with some solution to makes things better.  Sometimes I could just use some listeners.

​

So I'd like to thank you in advance for listening.
