    • About Me

      Time for an update as the last one was written when I joined for Divorce Support. SO, I have been divorced a year in June and have 2 wonderful "adult" sons, 18 & 19. Am a recovering alcoholic for 15 years on 8-8-08 and took the opportunity to quit smoking on the same date. Have my own business that I started a year after I quit drinking which has enabled me to leave an emotionally abusive and very lonely marriage.

    • Interests

      Reading, walking, talking as well as listening, helping others is what makes me happy, my cat and Ti-Vo. :) Finding a life is my main goal at this moment as I've never had one alone before. Gardening is my passion and I forgot that it was as I left all 20 of my gardens at my X's. Moto-cross when my son is racing.
