About Me
I WORK at Glendale Adventist Medical Center Play to Learn Outpatient Pediatric Center. If you can say that, you don't need speech therapy. Christine says she has many brothers and sisters because I call them "my kids". My schedule of 8 to 12 allows me to help out at Christine's school a couple of days a week.
I KNOW what's important. After last year's 4 outpatient surgeries, and a diagnosis of breast cancer on September 1, 2009, there is no question about priorities: My God, my family, my health and each moment of my life lived fully.
I ENJOY cooking Indian food, taking walks, repurposing old items found at garage sales and thrift stores, paper craft (see my art at www.flickr.com/photos/22408968@N07/), my daughter and love songs.
I LOVE time with Tom, and family vacations.
