My husband, Rob. I miss you honey!
Mark, together we can do anything. I love you and can't wait for the rest of our lives. Thanks for being part of my chapter 2 :)
About me: Hello all! My name is Mindie and I am a 24 year old wife to Mark, widow of Rob, and mother of 3 children; Dylan, Devon, and Dorothy And, yes, I did say widow. My husband was 33 years old when he overdosed on Methadone (he was on it for pain, not a heroin addiction). I'm from Ohio. I am a registered medical assistant that decided to go back to school for practical nursing. With 6 months of school left, I decided to move to an Atlanta suburb with the love of the new chapter in my life. His name is Mark and he also lost his spouse 5 months before I lost Rob. We tied the knot on May 16. The baby is due on Christmas day. Anyway, I found a branch of my school here in Atlanta and now I am working on my second Associate Degree in Surgical Technology. I have a cat named Jagermeowster and I have two step fur kids. Lancer is an 85 pound lap dog and Mooey is a 25 pound fat cat.
I am against routine infant circumcision. If you are one of those "It's cleaner, he needs to look like daddy, blah blah blah" freaks, go chop on your own genitals and leave your son's junk alone. I eat my pizza with cheese and sauce only. I hate redundancy, and laundry. My Libman Wondermop is the best thing on the planet. I am newly addicted to Guitar Hero. I recently quit smoking (3/25/09) because I am good like that. Anything else you want to know, just ask.
Who I'd like to meet: I would like to meet God so I can ask him why he took my husband away. I would like to meet Freud so I can see for myself that he was slightly wacked. I want to meet other people with Chiari Malformations. Hugh Laurie is on the top of the list as is Eddie Vedder and Axl Rose. Hey, I can dream can't I?
You have been up here since gettin' hitched and ya didn't call me?? WTF? J/K Anyways, I hope that things are going well for you, Mark and the kids. Talk to ya soon.
you know I was just getting off the Nuva Ring myself, I swear I had my period every two weeks on it, so I stopped it and within a week was pregnant I guess! I was told it would work a month or two after it was removed, but I took it out cause I can't afford tampons every other day!
Congrats on the wedding and the upcoming Baby Hoffacker. I LOVE the new profile pic of you and Mark! I wish I could've been there for the weddin'. I miss ya girl! Hopefully, I can get away one weekend and come see you and the kids and to meet Mark. Congrats again!!!
Congratulations! I'm pretty sure I don't need to send you info from nocirc.org - haha! I hope it's a healthy and easy pregnancy for you. Take care and enjoy it!
Yeah he had been having arthritis and bladder problems. Got both of those taken care of but about two months later, age just kinda caught up with him. And I still have my job, it's just the paychecks are getting slim, and so are the job choices out here.
Sam here basically. Looking for work, as usual; kinda bare right now. My cat passed away, but he lived a good life. Heard about you getting married, congrats, and i'm glad to hear the kids are doing well. School sounds like it could be fun if anything, interesting. Anywho, have a good one.
Yes Cinti usually has ice at the beginning of Jan and waits until Feb to snow. A little mixed up. Yes, I am so sorry about everything you have been through and how difficult it must be to go thru the holidays without the one you love. But you are so blessed to have the 3 children to love.
