About txpanhandler

I worked as a teacher's aide for eleven years at Crockett Elementary school when I was dx. I worked with special ed students and loved my job. I continued to work for a few more years but finally needed to give it up. I miss the people but enjoy the freedom of less stress in my days. My husband went back to work for the company he retired from, they made him an offer he could not refuse.Our ultimate goal is still, to get closer to our children and specifically our first grand baby. I really enjoy going to Curves for a thirty minute work out that seems to help and I enjoy being with my friend

More About txpanhandler

Who am I? That's a good question and the answer really was easier to come up with than I had originally thought! In fact I am sure I''m not alone in this area of self examination to squirm a bit under my thumb But I don't think it matters the truth. rings clear when it is presented. Here are the things that "do" matter to me they are common fears and encouragement of others like us that give us a sense of family. I am a wife and mother of two grown children who have given me the title grandmother of three but will be 5 in Dec or Jan! What a Joy! I have been a part of the educational system, a special ed. aide for 11 yrs and loved it. But what I want to be remembered for is that I am a Christian, I believe Christ died for me. See John 3:16.
