I am a woman who has found an interest in many different jobs. From the Steel Mills as a material handler/equipment operator, hair stylist, paralegal, dental assistant, systems operator for an outside contactor in the mill to data entry, landscape, bartender, and much much more. Each job, no matter how difficult or how much I hated it, I learned something about myself.

I have four amazing children, and have been blessed with two daughter-in-laws. My eighth grand-child is due in September. My father has given me his sense of humor which is better than any kind of monitary wealth. My children and grand-children have also been blessed with that gift.

My greatest desire is to understand my purpose in this lifetime. I believe in the Buddhist Philsophy, but I am not religious.

I believe each and every person is important. Even the ones that you don't notice. A smile can change the way a person is feeling. Being compassionate is something we should all strive for, but don't be a fool.

We should try to live each day as if it were our last. So we should be aware of how we want to be remembered.

I have also learned that the more I learn, the more I don't know. That is why I have been directed to this site.
