About me:
I never dreamed that being a wife, mother and grandmother could be so incredible! My biggest wish in life is that I can leave a legacy of love and a sense of family with my grandchildren. Family represents the roots (and wings!)of your life; without family you have nothing.
I am married, 26 years, to my soulmate, Jim. We love and laugh fully every day. We are devout Christians; the roots of Christianity puts our family roots into cement.
I love my husband,children, grandchildren, church family and friends. I also love quilting, gardening, cooking with whatever weird ingrdients I have, and I love to travel. I am a hot-line volunteer with the local Domestic Abuse organization, Spruce Run in Bangor, Maine.
I live with a painful condition, fibromyalgia, which slow me down many days. I find yoga, walking and stretching to be beneficial, along with some meds that help with depression and pain. I have fibromyalgia, but it does NOT have me!

Mom called me last night. I didn't get her message until it was too late to call her.
She said she loved me.
I am in a weird state of happiness, relief, shock, and confusion. I didn't know if she had it in her.
