    • About Me

      I have a beautiful 20 year old daughter who fortunately didn't witness much of my drinking until the last few years, she grew up with her father & step mother. We now have a great relationship that I treasure. I love to laugh, but I'm very tenderhearted & will cry easily if something touches my heart. I'm big on empathy & can't stand for someone I love to hurt. After 16 years of drinking daily, I realized I had a problem. I entered a detox facility in February of 08. I didn't drink for about 2 months afterwards & then started drinking socially and before I knew it, I was right back where I started...only worse. NOW I'VE GOT IT AND WILL FIGHT TO KEEP IT FOREVER!!

I mean Sunbeam, stick to the roof of your mouth white bread, we're a dying breed...and I am fortunate enough to love my job!
