More about me

I'm 53 years old and have five children and six grandchildren.  I'm a breast cancer survivor.  

It's a known fact that I plan to see New York before I die so when I was diagnosed with cancer I knew I had to beat it.  Looks like I will see New York after all!

Those that know me say that I have a great sense of humor...sometimes it borders on warped! 

In my spare time I enjoy redecorating my home, reading, writing, baking and trying out new recipes.

I enjoy meeting new people and feel that you can never have too many friends.
