I love to paint, draw, take photos, scrapbook and hunt.  Although, since PD I have found that I struggle with the drawing since I work primarily with pen and ink and the tremors work against the fine lines that are required.  This is one of my earlier works:


I have also had to give up bow hunting as I am unable to pull the bow back now, even with an assist device I am too shaky to hold on the target.  I mainly stick to turkey hunting with a shotgun now, and I am not too sure how much longer I will be able to keep that up either.  At least I am able to get out and enjoy nature still and I do treasure those times. 

My life is full and my days are busy, with keeping up with a 6-year-old.  I also have a 9-year-old granddaughter. 

Although I battle with the symptoms of PD, my loving Savior gives me the strength to tackle each challege that is before me and I give Him praise and honor.  My greatest desire is to make Him known and to glorify His name.
