Nancy's Story

My best friend would tell you I'm crazy, but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as shy and/or standoffish. I'd have to say if you saw me on the streets, which is doubtful since I live out of town and only come in at night to work, you'd know me right away, other than getting rounder I look the same as always, well hair is going silver at an alarming rate, but then that don't bother me. I did cut it a few years ago, got tired of sitting on it. I am a Direct Service Provider, I work with the physically and mentally handicapped so they can stay in their own homes. I am the mother of two, my daughter is 21, little, tiny, slender person, no idea where she got that from. LOL My son is 17 almost 18 and is in his last year of HS. My grandson is just over a year old and is a rotten little thing, lol Just finding his independence and we all know how fun that is! My husband will be 59 this year, he is a union glazier and hangs around outside the tops of hi-rise buildings, literally. During slow times he has also been an OTR driver. I share my home with 2 Boston Terriers, Sass and Bean, one very large cat, Mr Pix (is it bad if your cat is larger than your dogs?) 2 parakeets, Miss Birdly and Dilly bird. One tank of fish which contains a breeding pair of angelfish (I'd be overrun with the little beggars except they keep eating the eggs) 2 upsidedown catfish, 2 cories, 1 bushy nosed pleco and 4 golden tetras. We bought an old rundown farmhouse about 8 years ago, which still looks like an old rundown farmhouse, but we have a brand new 30'x40' polebarn which is why the house still looks terrible. That and we are still working on the inside which I feel is more important that what the...Expand for more
outside looks like. I lost Mom in '94, for those of you that knew about David, he's still going strong, lives in hospice in TENN now, down by dad. Dad is 80 and lives in TENN. My sis is 60 <EG> and lives in NC and Jim Bob is almost 48 and lives in FL. I am the only one that stayed local. As for me, I just keep motoring on, doing what needs to be done. I don't care about keeping up with the Joneses, never did. I am just me. I don't do fads, if it's comfortable I wear it. If you don't like the way it looks, don't look. My husband finally gave up asking me "You're not going OUT in that, are you?". Seems he didn't care for my giant t-shirts. LOL I gave up smoking on Mother's Day 2009, OK I didn't give up nicotine (every time I try I turn into the witch from Hades, I had said this a different way, but they wouldn't let me) but use a PV AKA electronic cigarette, which only gives me nicotine and I am cutting back on the amount of that and I feel really good about it and feel tons better, now if I could just loose the weight. Well maybe this year, but if not, I'm not going to sweat it. I am into natural healing, oils, herbs and homeopathic. My son found out here awhile back that the remedy I was giving him when he had a headache was a poison (belladonna). That got me the MooOom! I asked him if his headache was gone, well yes, are you dead? well no. Alright then, don't fuss at me. When I have time I do quilt making, scrapbooking, cross stitch and gardening. Been awhile since I had time though. Well that's as much me as you are going to get in this little box. I will make the effort to get back here oftener than I have been. Hope you enjoyed a peek into my life. God Bless. Oh yeah, I am NOT PC either.
