About Me
I love my son, Sean, my dogs (Belgian Malinois) and my hobbies are showing and training my dogs, tried that with 16 yr old Sean still working on that! I read everything I can get my hands on. I love gourmet cooking and pairing wines. I have been disabled since 2003 due to an accident and HCV. I thank God that I have had the strength to make it through these last years and continue to look for His help every day.
