Arlene's Story
I always wanted to be a nurse when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a good idea. As it turns out, they were wrong.
I sing, play the piano, read, watch videos, dance ,do strengthening exercises, walk, do household repairs, eat out in restaurants and I am learning sound engineering at my Church. You don't want to know the wildest thing I did in school.
If I'm going to work in Nursing, I need to have Xanax, Vistaril, and Tylenol to be able to deal with the terrible physical, mental and emotional stress which is mostly caused by uncaring administrators.
I lived in Philly, Upper Darby, Yeadon, Lansdowne, East Lansdowne, and many years ago, East Camden and Lindenwold, New Jersey.
The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Stanley, because he asked me to go to dinner last year and stood me up, but we have ...Expand for more
resolved that issue and have loosely made plans to see each other in the near future.
I have seven grandchildren and a beautiful great grand daughter. They have been my biggest surprises.
I am very happy with my family especially my ex in-laws who are great people.
My current age is 65. When I was 12, I thought that people my age now would be ancient. I was so completely wrong.
I share my home with my 22 year old grandson, which I find fun..
If I could do my life over I would go into Music Education which I love because Nursing has ruined my life and my health!
My oldest friend is Doris. I have known Doris since i was three or four years old and even though we do not often see each other we have remained friends over the years. We have beautiful love and chemistry. She is a wonderful, loving kind person who is very intelligent and wise.
