About Me
I'm single and 45. I have 3 awesome kids. They are ages 11, 13 and 16. All will be schooled at home this next year via on line school. We live outside the city and are surrounded by evergreen trees. I love living here despite the rain our weather is still considered moderate. I have Biolar Disorder Type 1 and I cycle rapidly. It sucks. But I'm on a handful of pills that make me feel pretty good and have stabilized my moods for the most part.
Interests
I like to write and take day trips. My favorite day trip is to Mt. Rainier. I'm teaching myself to draw. I need to do that more. I love to sing. I was a publisher for a number of years for my own company, but I basically destroyed that. Currently I'm writing a book with my eldest daughter and am excited to see where it leads.
