: About Me

I have always absolutely loved words. The way the right words inspire me, intrigue me and can make me feel.
I have wanted to do so many different things with my life, the one thing I was absolutely decided on though was being a strong, loving, nurturing Mother. The kind of woman I would respect and be proud to have been.
I have made it to the teen years with my children and am experimenting with step parenting with a couple of more. I simply love my life.
I remember when we first all moved in together I was so frustrated because I just couldn't find a HOW-TO book for couples that weren't married. I don't remember now why it would have made a difference - just that it would have, then.
We made it past all of that though and are now just riding lifes regular ups and downs with great skill most of the time.
I am an Activity Director in a huge skilled nursing facility and have worked in long term care for about 14 years now. I love what I do. Can't imagine doing anything else that would give me as much purpose and fulfillment as well as so much opportunity to be creative in my every day life. I do intend to continue my schooling and further my career as an Administrator one day soon. What I actually get paid to do it simply awesome, even if it is repetitive at times. I enjoy spirituality, the study of energy work and various religions. I am extremely interested in self improvement and philosophy as well as relationships and parenting teens. I have always enjoyed writing.

Most modern women in today's world go through periods of their lives where everything is flowing along at a predictable pace. The paces change as do the women, but you get the idea. Even when it is an exciting time of newness and change many women feel comforted by having a sense of what their next step is going to be or look like or feel like and it is good.
