    • About Me

      I am 44 and have suffered with fibromyalgia since 1986. It has been a long haul, but I am recovered enough now where I can finally work part time. I am a Nail Technician and have my own home salon. I am getting married July/07, for the 2nd. time. I have 1 daughter who is 16. I have been through many hardships, but I choose to learn & grow from each hardship, and I want to be there for others who are also suffering. I believe in turning our hardships into good things, with God's help!!
