I am a Registered Nurse, wife, mother of 3 daughters, and stepmom to 3 daughters. Yes, that is 6 girls! Their ages are: Brooke-20, Alexis-15, Amy-14, Jacqueline-14, Melanie-13, and Caryn 11. ************************************************************ ** I have been married to my husband Don for 8 years. He is a truck driver and he was a cook for 20 years. He can make a 4 course meal out of practically nothing. And he can take one bite of food and tell you how it's made and be able to reproduce it at home. ************************************************************ ** I have been a nurse for 7 years, and I received my bachelors degree from UTA in 2005. My primary background was in Neurological ICU. I am now working as a nursing Case Manager at an Arlington hospital. I absolutely love it and it's never boring! ************************************************************ ** I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2004, and I can not tell you how much it sucks! I was the typical nurse who would work several jobs at once, and would come in to work on a minute's notice when other people called in sick. But fibromyalgia sucks out all of your energy and stamina. On top of that, you hurt all over, all the time (imagine your worst case of the flu). The jury is still out on causes and cures. So, we just manage the best that we can.
