I grew up in a small town in New Jersey where my Christmas' were white with snow and fire flies lit up the spring nights.
During my freshman year in high school, Mom, Doris and I moved to Arizona. Eastern school points differed from South Western points, so I did my freshman year all over again. In my sophomore year, after turning 16; I dropped out of school and married that same year.
Two years later, I was blessed with the birth of my first child. In eighteen months another blessing came with the birth of my second child. I spent much of my younger years being a full time loving mother and home maker.
After gaining some wisdom and my GED degree, I divorced and moved with my girls to California only to return a year later to re-marry their father.
Six years later, I divorced my first husband a second time and married the love of my life, Allan.
Allan and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary. Deeply in love, we embrace our friendship and life's blessed abundance with joy in our hearts.
I've worked several jobs including, sales clerk, cocktail waitress, stewardess, nurse, receptionist and secretary before gaining my AA degree with honors and a 3.96 GPA.
My best friend; husband Allan and I were owners of a fabricating business for twenty years, where I was office manager. We now manage our commercial property and spend quality time traveling with our two cats, Alice and Jack.
I'm a 'truth advocate' which I exercise in my relationships, art, poetry and authoring of my first book.
I have been blessed with a gentle, loving husband; two unique and beautiful daughters, three precious and beautiful granddaughters, a handsome and loving grandson and a very special great-grandson.
Life is Wonderful! The best is yet to come. |
