ABOUT ME:

I am over 50 and married. I have a great daughter who is 30 and living at home at present. I also have two awesome fur kids, PeeWee a Border Collie mix and Valentine my little heart and soul, a German Shepherd pup. I have been working full time again for the past 2 years and it isn't easy but I have to pay my bills somehow! I am really stubborn and will go in to work with a 9 or 10 migraine because we don't get sick pay and if I am not here there will be no one to answer the phones. I had horrid migraines as a teen. They went away wne I was pregnant and stayed away until a car accident at 25 and have been terrible ever since. Got some help from MHNI but headaches are beginning to worsen and my favorite doc just left the practice :< Have many other health issues which I also fight against tooth and nail. I am a fighter, I don't give up easy! I love the woods, the water and warm but not hot days. My head hates weather changes. I personally love a good storm but my head hates it!
