Tamara's Story

I have been married for 26 years to the best husband in the world, Tim. Tim is a supervisor for a company that does railroad construction and maintenance. We have 3 great sons. Brandon is 26 and is no longer serving in the United States Marine Corp. He was in Okinowa, Japan for 2 years, then he was stateside at Camp Lejeune, NC. He has a beautiful baby girl, Brooklynn Renee who was born in March of 2011. He is currently living back at home with us, and is waiting to join the apprentice program at an operators union as a deisel mechanic... Justin is 23 and is still living at home after graduating from Lincoln Tech in Indianapolis for Deisel Mechanics. He finally found work with my husband, he joined a laborers union and is making awesome money, but can't seemed to find a house of his own..... Dylan just turned 20. He is in his 2nd year at IUPUI in Indianapolis for Political Science. My baby! To say that none of my kids are teenagers anymore makes me feel really old....lol After I had my 3rd son, I went back to school and became a nurse. I graduated in 1996. I have worked in mostly Assisted Living Facilities and Nursing Homes with Alzheimer and Dementia Residents. I am currently unemployed. I help with the care of my terminally ill maternal grandm...Expand for more
other. She is a blessing to me and have enjoyed these last couple of years, really getting to know her. It feels like I am losing my last link to my mom..... I enjoy many different hobbies such as riding my motorcyle, walking, working out, embroidery, cross stitch, knitting, quilting, oil painting, reading and I love movies, especially period movies and classics. I absolutely enjoy walking aerobics and I am a WW member. I have lost 80 pounds and still have another 30-40 to go. Tim and I are constantly doing home improvement projects. Such as putting in hardwood floors or ceramic tile. When we aren't doing that we are off riding on our motorcycles, if Tim isnt tinkering with his many bikes. He has several sportbikes and a cruiser and I just have the one cruiser. We do occasionally enjoy going out to dinner with friends. We had 2 Shetland sheepdogs, Shadow and Lacey. And 1 calico kitty named Snickers. Unfortunately our beloved Shadow passed away the day after Dylans high school graduation.. Its been difficult... I must say that I really enjoy my kids......but it would be nice to have a lil of that empty nest syndrome that many parents experience when their kids go away to school or move out...lol .....at least my boys are all healthy and safe....
