Hi, as most know my name is Charlene, everyone calls me Char, or wench. I answer to almost everything. I was born in Orillia, Ontario. And raised in Toronto, Ontario. my early childhood years were not very pleasant. I was emotionally, physically and sexually abused. And I don't know who my natural father is! I have over come these obsticals with the help of my wonderful fosterparents. I was in fostercare at the age of 10, and I really firmly believe that if I wasn't placed in care I wouldn't be the person you see here today. I have achieved many things in my life, I have grown up to talk about my life experiences as a child, I  have gone to Jamiaca to help with the House of Safetly for unwanted or orphaned children. I have done many speeches on the benifits the CAS (Children's Aid Society) has to offer, and the desparte need for funding in the early teens and more extended care for the older teens. I have done many conferences on the outspeak of youth, and have had some published anonymous poems. I have also learnt to play a variety of instruments.
This is one of the few modeling pictures I have left. I did this amaturly for a few years.
One of my favorite things to do is Horse back ride. I have dont some Equstrian riding, even done a bit of amature competition I love being around horses so much I had worked two summers at CARD (Community Association for Riding for the Disabled).Then I found that I enjoyed working with the disabled so I volunteered for two years at Hugh MacMillian Rehabilitation Center.  I use to enjoy doing a wide variety of sports. I use to be on the volley ball team at highschool. And I use to do competitive swimming for Ontario.
I stopped doing all of these things once I became pregnant with my daughter at the age of 19. I met my husband when I was 17 yrs.  Since then there has not been any man in my life that is more important to me. We have had alot of life struggles. But to me what is marriage with out some test and trials.
If you can't get me its because I am doing one of my favorite things. Chatting on the phone. This picture was taken around easter of this year
At this moment in my life I am currently exploring some new things. Religion for one. I was born a cristian but have never followed the faith for me it has let me down in many ways. I have looked so far in to many different cultures and thier religion. And a few have interested me. I have always been into Astrology and Numerology, I have also dabbled in Tarot reading. I have my own set of cards, and can read fairly good. At this moment in my life I also value my friends. Those that are my friends, know what I expect and dont expect. I enjoy spending time with my friends. They have become a very important part of my life and my sanity!
I love this picture of me on my wedding day!
