I am here for Friends

About Me

I just moved back to Chicago, into my late parent's apartment building. I'm working on this place full time with my new husband, at the moment, often getting side tracked by meaningful momentos.

Lots of work behind me but still more ahead. *sigh* I'll get there.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:
