    • About Me

      I am 37 years old. I was married for 11 years and very recently left my husband and my horrible marraige because of emotion abuse. I am very tired of looking in the past over the bad things that has happened. I now want to start looking toward the future and the new life that I am starting. I know this will not be easy but I am excited to get started!
