With the charisma of an American sweetheart, there are many admiring comments that can be said about Jeannie Tinges. She’s smart, kind, funny, and an all-around beautiful person, inside and out.
Being from Lake Oswego, Oregon, it’s no surprise just how laid-back she is and how easy it is getting to know her.
First and foremost, Jeannie loves her family. Married with two children, 2017 has proven to be an exciting year for the Tinges.
In September she celebrated her 34th wedding anniversary with her “Teddy Spaghetti.” It was clear to the couple, a camping trip suited them best for such an occasion. Packed up with the necessities, including their two adorable puppies, Olive and Snickerdoodle, they drove to Stanley Lake towing their RV trailer they purchased earlier this year.
Located in Custer County, Idaho on the Salmon River, Jeannie & Ted spent a lot of time in the Stanley area hiking and fishing. “It was GORGEOUS! We really had a fabulous time! It is now our favorite place! Probably the best summer yet!”
Another special event took place on July 7th, when her son, Justin married his beautiful bride, Katelyn. Of course, the date, 7/7/17 was no coincidence.
The wedding was celebrated at Jeannie’s parents beach property in Rockaway Beach, Oregon. “What a beautiful day to get married. Grandma and papas house was the perfect spot!”
Jeannie’s 27-year-old daughter, Clare, recently earned her Master’s Degree in Film Editing and recently moved to California pursuing her film career. “I’m so proud of both of them.”
No matter where you are, family is precious and important and no one appreciates that better than Jeannie, “Family isn’t the most important thing, family is everything.” ~Michael J. Fox

Our Path
The path walked along is sometimes winding and changes,
bringing about excitement,
from time to time; chaos.
Sometimes the path is long and straightforward,
possibly boring,
at intervals it is the right direction.
Sometimes the path seems dissipated,
one becomes lost,
alone,
afraid.
Sometimes we are carried along the path during moments of trial,
given comfort,
graced with love.
The path we walk is of our own,
to choose as only we will.
It matters not,
of how it’s walked,
or who it’s walked with.
In the end,
we all end up settled together in perfection,
in loveliness,
in heaven.
You
Neglected I always lose
Never…Unaware of hate I’ve not succeeded
Outside uncertain, do I stop?
Your constitution is crying from you
Listen you, why am I to commendate?
We are measured to be different
Not now, you won’t ever unmanage
That affair doesn’t extinguish you
You are the one who dismissed your departure
You are the one who couldn’t last
You disbelieve that death’s pushed into me
You disbelieve that happiness is fixed from me
Never you can’t always listen
You’ve lost nothing foremost me
This is the consequence, I just answer and reply
For this compliment to escape you
Hear me, why are you to criticize?
Aren’t we acquainted to be inconsistent?
It is assumed, you will always be unruly
That faithfulness is cold to you?
You are the one who rejected my escape
You are the one who can bolt
You touch the inanimacy that’s assaulted me
You discredit the anger permanently fixed
Protected
You discount inappropriately all to be free
You loosely tried
I did my time
You failed and rejected me
You gave up your future
You neglected your present
You lost your future
You are the one who dismissed your divergence
You are the one who withdrew first
You let go the intimacy forced from me
You cower to contentment
Exposed yet unable to be seen

Heavy laden are my thoughts burdened with contemplation of users and takers
Diseased with the haves and the have not’s my reality is poisoned by sheer deathly vapors
Ruined by the institution society demanded to seek unfulfilled by lingering desires hidden deep in the shadows
Pretender, I am increasingly becoming weak as I’m trapped in a dark pungent place as if shackled in the gallows
An unmet stranger lurking in the dark waiting to be found and yet passed by once more hidden and forgotten
All too often by lack of pleasure I am bound ugly and unwanted believed to be rotten
Did one not saith ye loved me once upon a time? Now to torture my soul with things no longer allowed to touch
Relieved of all responsibility convinced it’s a victimless crime my apprehension is passion I hold as my crutch
Rendered useless in my blind eye not even able to tear
Left alone wondering why I’m cold and hollow incapable of fear
Still at this juncture to love you and that’s the torment of it as my heart needs to suffer no longer
Pain delivered to the giver in a cold-hearted remit to fill the void that has captured my life I shall conquer
