I am here for Friends

About Me

I am married to my high school sweetheart and we celebrated our 40th anniversary in 2007. My husband and I reside in a small town in the Southern Tier of upstate New York. Our home was built in 1921, by my husband's grandfather, as were many other homes in the area. Total restoration has been completed but remodeling and re-decorating projects are never ending! I appreciate the beauty and architecture of older homes and buildings. These structures need to be saved, renovated and preserved for future generations. I am a Registered Nurse; my last job was with Planned Parenthood as a center manager and office nurse for patient services. Although I am not working now, I don't consider myself retired. I guess that leaves my options open and, quite honestly, I don't like the sound of the word! LOL We have 2 wonderful daughters who are both happily married. Although they live 3 hours away, opposite directions in Pa. and Canada, we make it a priority to visit each other often. We have been blessed with one grandson and three granddaughters. Our newest granddaughter, Natalee Brooke, was born this past September! I love spending time with my grandchildren, they enrich my life in so many ways. They keep us on our toes and keep us laughing and marveling at their perceptions and comments. Meeting people from other states and countries on Myspace has been an incredible experience! We are all more alike than I ever imagined. I try look at the funny side of most situations, to joke with others and sometimes just be silly! I want my friends to share and appreciate that sense of humor so we can laugh and have fun together!
