- About Me
- I have two wonderful boys one 15 one 19 they are my life. I work as a nurse in a long term care facality where I have been the last 5+ years. I think about quiting alot but then I think who would take care of the residents like I do? I am currently getting back into EMS after a short break and the need to fullfill that need. I am addicted to it I will admit it. Some times life gets in the way of living! I have started a charity project a couple years ago that I am planning on finishing up this year. I kinda had to back off some due that life thing but hey as long as I get it done it will be ok. My new years resolution was to finish up the open ends in my life and to pick one thing each day that scares me and do it. A very good friend of mine gave me that quote, from Elenor Roosevelt. A good one to live by so far this year I have kept that up. Anything else you want to know just ask I am pretty much an open book.

But the pain you feel is only going to last a short time.
You will miss her and grieve that normal and fine.
You loved her so and but i will not let you go into this blind.
I will be here to hold you and let memories of her shine.
