More about me

 

I am kind to others, I love my cat Pumpkin, I love my son and his wife and 2 little boys who live in Atlanta and my daughter and her husband and little girl (who will be 2 on my husband's birthday-who live in Santa Fe, New Mexico ( she really didn't have to move so far away, I would not visit her THAT much)  She is a museum curator in New Mexico.

I work for an attorney who does collection, lien and foreclosures so now we are very busy and very well un-liked !.

 I  am easy to be with, I can be very funny, sad, silly, and un-predictable.  I am unhappy with me most of the time, but I would be there  for others at any time.  I want so much to be respected, to be proud of myself, but the self hate and self disappointment outweighs how others feel about me.-

 I hope to find someone to share stories and feelings with at this site-.  Losing my husband in September so unexpectedly, and having son and daughter and 3 grandchildren far away, I need to get busy with outside activities.   My shoulds outweigh my doing. Show music that I can sing along with brings me tremendous pleasure, most music makes me feel better and now that I have a new individual CD player I can hum and smile without anyone knowing why !.

Well  much more then needed, but that's the story

Thanks for letting me share some of my thoughts

 I worked in a mental health clinic f0r over 20 years in Goshen, New York and loved that job-   I collect giraffe and still have many of the ones I received from clients who were very nice to me.   I worked at Nova University in the mental health clinic but after a few weeks, not sure who needed help more, the clients or me.

 I will add more as I go along
