Gloria's Story

My first marriage was to Jerry V. We were married for 13 years and I have 2 boys, Ryan who is 24 and Aaron who is 26. Aaron has been my challenge having ADHD. Understand that the diagnosis for ADHD back then was equivalent to "you" being the unfit disciplinarian mother. In any event Aaron still faces challenges but is doing well currently living in Colorado. Ryan is aspiring to go to law school focusing his sights on Tax Law. My marriage dissolved after 13 years and I remarried Jerry Casanova. (Yes another Jerry). We have been together now for 10 years, I obtained my Master's Degree many years ago and have worked in corporate America in Human Resources and Risk Management. However after layoffs and corporate take overs, I find it difficult to lay my hat with any corporation. I have found comfort and many rewards with my dogs. It is this that has inspired me to go into my own business and develop my "own brand." While at this very moment it is still in the development stages, my drive, ambition and love to give to these wonderful pets what corporate America has not given me, loyalty and support.

In the end, it appears there was a complete different agenda in life for me. This one I welcome with open arms.. I suffered an ischemic event a few years ago that made me realize that life is precious and no job is worth losing it for. I changed drastically overnight. As a matter of fact, I cannot remember how long it has been when I have gotten angry. At the end I learned "that the event has already occurred" so why get mad, just find a solution. This has changed me. I took up snow skiing and have enjoyed it immensely. There is nothing like sitting on the top of a mountain looking at the horizon. I scuba dive and love it just as much. And I love my dogs. My boys are awesome and my niece and nephew remind me that I don't want to raise kids again in this day and age. I am writing short stories and focusing on my business. If I'm going to work somewhere, I need to have cell phone, computer , and a glass of wine to be able to deal with the day-to-day.
