About Me
I'm a woman of 49. An addict in recovery. I'm diagnosed with bipolar1, PTSD, borderline personality disorder and OCD, high anxiety and insomnia (of course). I live with my fiance who does a lot to help me out. I live in a small Gold-Country Tourist town at the 'foot-mountains' of mid-California. It's beautiful and lovely here. I couln't ask for any more than what blessings I have now.

Interests
My interest are taking care of my husband. I have four kitties - one of which I've had over 7 years who I saved her life. I love them all dearly. I love to take care of my home and Jeep - we like to drive around alot. We go to the Native American Casino here in Northern California and have fun. We both have our mothers still around and talk to them just about daily. I'm very close to all the medical care I get in this town. I love the town I live in. I have a wonderful life.

Ray of Sunshine
I'm truly sorry for your pain. Your journal entries were very heart felt. I do believe you will find peace. It might just take a bit of time. I hope you have a most festive w/e. Your pics are all so grand. U both look so happy. The scenery is beautiful. I live near the Smokey Mtns & must admit after a lifetime in the mtns I do take it for granted. You look so pretty & I would never guessed you were 49yrs young.
Hug
I am so glad to hear that. I am trying to get myself motivated to do the cleaning. Oh well I guess when there is nothing left to do here I will go and do it........LOL. Hugs
