You need to be able to throw something back. I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life.." I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. | | | | | | |  | |  | | | | Topic Info | Contact Info | | | | | Additional Information | | Location:

| Experience:
I love my family. I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. I consider myself normal - whatever normal is. I like photography and cooking, reading. I don't know that I am an expert on anything. I am like everyone else. I put one foot in front of the other and try to get through the day the best way I can. I know with my FAITH in God - I can get through anything!
