Anne's Story
Life
I have 1 boy child,1 cat,2 dogs,& 1 cockatiel. I got married in 1997. Yes, motorcycles are part of our lives. But life keeps us busey(work work work)...soooooo the HD spends more time in the garage than on the road. Life is busey and uneventful. And I am happy to say...I am living a sober life since March 2007. I dropped out of the life & away from the people I called "friends" but it has been all worth the changes I had to make. It showed me who my REAL friends were. I am happier for it.. Cigarette free since march 2007 also!! Who would of guessed!
I have an illness in which I have to maintain my treatment for. I struggle to work full-time. My goal in my present life is to maintain my health an stay off disability for as long as possible. I stay close to home. That is good enough for me.
As it turned out, my Mom is my hero. She has shown me courage like no other person.
Pets, wigs, shopping...it is all an obsession when I become manic. Whatever my brain connects to at the time, I guess.
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel our spare room as a special room just for me.(a quiet room.) My dream home would be near the beach.
If I won $100 million, I'd give 25 million of it to cancer research, then spend the rest on mental health care for the unfortunate, my son's college fund and new home by the beach.
I share my home with my family & pets, which I find comfortable.

end was Lisa C. Those were my fondest memories growing up. Innocent little girls having fun exploring our little world. Unaware how we would be split up and grow up so totally different. But still fondly remember each other. I will never forget her.
Lisa C and I sat under an elm tree banging rocks together to make white powder for our faces. This was our attempt to use make-up. :)
My mother. she struggled to raise us alone. And she finally got her LPN license at the age of 40. she was a hard worker. She was a good person as well as being funny. God rest her soul, she passed October 30, 2000 of breast cancer. I love her very much. I was very proud of her and her accomplishments.
The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Patty McKay, because she was my best friend..
Pets have become my main interest. they keep me busey taking care of them. And get so much love back from them as well. They give unconditional love, never judge and they give me purpose.
If I could improve my home, I'd remodel the kitchen and add on a master bedroom. My dream home would be on the beach..
how to step back and be a better parent. At least as well as I can be. And I don't have to be the parent i was raised with. (Which whom changed for the better later on in life.)
If I won $100 million, I'd give 5 million of it to cancer research, then spend the rest on a new home, college fund for my son and pay off all the bills.
