I am a mom to 3 adult children, a grandmother to 1 little boy, a wife, a daughter, sister, & friend. I have been accused of being a "bleeding heart", too compassionate & sentimental but on other days it has been insinuated that I am "tough". I am not always sure that is a compliment! My interests are diverse. I enjoy family times, woodworking, camping, creative writing, history & legal research. I work full time in the human services field & strive do for others all that I can while I am able.
