I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a Mom and a Nurse.... in that order. I love my children unconditionally and would give them the world if I had the power. For now I just do my level best to be the best parent I can be. I consider parenting a privelege not a job! My kids are not the only ones that call me Mom...... I love their friends and have all but adopted a few. They are very special to me!!
I do truly believe that everything happens for a reason. That people enter and leave your life in order to effect it somehow. For the good and sometimes to teach a lesson. I am thankful for all the joys that life has given me. And I have tried to learn from the bad.




I love my career. Being a nurse gives me the opportunity to help people. To make an impact on their lives. And I always do my best to make it a positive one. I do my job with empathy and honesty. I am not a perfect person and sometimes I have to leave Lisa in the car when I go to work. But I do genuinley care for my patients and I think thats what makes me a good nurse. I have worked very hard to get where I am. Its not the top but it certainly isn't the bottom either.
I have a full and busy life....(sometimes too busy!) I am very close to my family and friends but I hesitate when it comes to strangers. I used to believe that everyone was a "good person"...... I learned the hard way that is not the case. Too many times to count....... my kindness was taken for a weakness. Now I am stronger, wiser and have learned to be a BITCH when I have to be. No need to deny it. As for friends, I would rather sorround myself with a few true friends than a bunch of imposters. My true friends KNOW WHO THEY ARE and family ALWAYS comes first!! And I love all my peeps unconditionally! Life wouldn't be right without em all!!
Me and my baby brother Heath........ Love him!!
LIFE IS ALL ABOUT RESPECT. I have NO TOLERANCE for ignorance. My children are bi-racial and my son is gay. I am very proud of both of them and love them more than life itself!! The gay and/or racial comments will get you cut!! No really..... I WILL CUT YOU!!
Just me..... no more; no less!





My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Our New President who I am so proud of!! .......... and Anyone real, with a genuine heart. People who are open minded, respectful and willing to accept a person at face value. I hate fake people with an agenda. Met alot of those in the past few years. Y'all just keep on steppin!!

Obama Baby....... Progress!! Finally some hope for the future!! Did I ever think in my life time I would see a black president? Nah! But I couldn't be any happier!!
