Hi ya'll!I was born in Westerly, Rhode Island but came to Florida with my family when I was just four years old...oh my gosh, that's 51 years ago! :o( I've lived in Sanford, DeLand, South Daytona and Holly Hill (which is in the Greater Daytona Beach area)...where I live now. I graduated from Mainland High School in 1970. My husband graduated there in 1967...My kids in 1999 and 2002. Joshua was born in 1981 and Kimberly in 1983. Josh now is married to his sweetheart, Nina, and is coming up on his first anniversary. I have been fortunate enough to be able to stay home to raise my kids even though it meant sacrifices. What that did though was hone my ability to get a bargain whenever possible. I love to visit thrift stores and can scour them for hours. I sold items on Ebay for years which helped to bring some needed cash into the house while the kids were in high school and into college. I volunteer at my churches thrift store one day a week...it's like hunting for treasure! My husband and I sing in our choir at First Baptist of Daytona Beach and have been active in church activities there for over 24 years. I like to walk and it helped me to lose some much needed weight and although I gained back 10 pounds I still have kept 45 pounds off for a couple of years.crash_codes..
