About

"sometimes being a bitch is the only thing a woman has to hang on to..."----Delores Claiborne... I finally grew up about the age of 50. I have 10 biological grandchildren with 1 more about here, and 10 extended grandchildren. I work at an alternative school, and even though at times it can be trying, I love my job and the kids. I am a widow...I lost my beloved husband,Bob, June 6th, 2011. i live a mile out of town - just far enough to enjoy the country with the convenience of town. We enjoy our home, yard, dogs, "Gemmy", our children and grandchildren and the rest of the family. I quit smoking about 1 1/2 years ago, now I just eat alot. LOLLOL- I don't drink anymore, don't smoke, but I do still cuss now and then. Bob and I enjoy having coffee and donuts every Sunday with my mom and dad, and sister Susie. I wish I could see more of my sister Kim and brother David. Otherwise, I'm pretty boring.

Favorite saying

• ""Don't wish for what you don't want" My Aunt Georgie use to tell me "Okay for you" (when I didn't do what I was asked to do) I don't know exactly what she meant by it, but it would REALLY make me think twice about what was asked of me, and I'd usually do it."
