About Me

"Outgoing, fun loving, huge animal lover" Everyone that knows me will tell you I have a big heart, I've changed in the past years - I no longer let things bother me. I let things roll off. I hate drama because life's to precious to deal with bullshit. I feel that I've become strong - dealing with the losses in my life that I couldn't understand why they even happened. Seeing my grandfather ill for 3 yrs was overwhelming because he was the rock of the famly. He suffered with a stroke that left him in a wheelchair and unable to eat solid food. When he passed away it was a feeling of peace for me because I saw him suffer. We come across so many different things in life that makes us who we are. We can be here one day & gone the next - that's why I am not shy in telling someone how I feel. I never want anyone to doubt my feelings for them.

Bad bet for society

I have to disagree with having a casino here, especially one in East Boston at Suffolk Downs. Many people like the idea of having more jobs for the people. I doubt these people are the compulsive...
