About Me
I have 5 grown children of my own and 2 step children. I also have 9 grandchildren and one due in the fall. . I love being a grandma and enjoy being with my husband. We love to garden and raise yorkies, schnauzers. I was diagnosed about 13 years ago with fibro and lupus. Sometimes the pain is so unbearable I just want to go to bed and lay on my heat pad. It seems like nothing helps. I can tell when it's going to rain and snow. I still work full time as an operations manager in logistics. It's getting harder and harder to work full time. I find that if I stay on the move when at work it is easier to finish the day out.

My dogs, grandkids, flower beds, TV, EBay and fish. We are in the process of fixing our back yard up into a playgroud for the grandkids. Last year I had an adult size 12x12 playhouse for them. I want to build onto it already and put fold down cots in for sleepovers when they come to our house.
