 About Me
I'm basically an up person; I have my "moments" but I try to keep them minimal. I've been home for 5 years now, not sure how I like it- I've always worked. My most memorable job was working as an purchasing agent for an marble/granite importer in So. Calif. LOVED it! I'm married to a delightful man I met when I was 19, he's a blend of Magnum PI & Maguyver. After 27 yrs, still going strong! We have a daughter, just left the Navy after serving 6 1/2 years. After loosing my 11yr old Chihuahua (snif), I just got another one! :) I use Betaseron, a rolling walker at home, and a W/C for outings.
