About Me

I am married with two wonderful kids. Mostly I am known for working night shift from 7PM till 7:30 AM three times a week. It makes me exhausted and sometimes I don't know know which way is up or down, but it is something I am choosing to do.I have been in my field for almost 30 years. 24 years where I am presently employed. I have a brother and 2 sisters who are younger than me and I have been with my husband for 21 years.

My Interests

I have many interests. I love pictures that people take, family photos. I like flowers, pretty leaves in the fall. I would like to travel more. My kids are in their teens and that usually is some sort of challenge.I used to sew and quilt and have done a scrapbook or two. IF you really want to know me though, read my blogs. Not that they are that great, but I usually will tell of the things that go on in my life. I love positive input, okay, who doesn't?

I'd like to meet:



My paternal father, Jorge Palamo or any of his family, Harrison Ford, Roger Hodgson, Phil Collins. Peter Walsh
