About Me
I have Fibromyalgia and a host of other medical issues that have forced me to retire. I've been married for the past 35 years to a wonderful man who is my best friend. We have 1 son and 3 grandkids who live in another state - too far away to visit. :( We have 3 Dogs - Schipperke's They are our other kids :)

God picked a flower and dipped it in dew then lovingly touched it which turned into you. Then he gifted to me and said, "This friend is for you".
