Bio

I'm 46, married to the best guy in the world and we live in the house I grew up in with my parents due to the fact that they are older and I am disabled by autoimmune disease. I am also a caretaker for my mom who has heart and lung disease. I have friends in the living history/re-enactment community, but I have not been able to be active due to my illness. Many of the friends I've made in this community are my lifeline and my own personal cheerleaders. They are AWESOME! I am known in this community as Nannyfodder - cause I nurture those around me. I deal with fatigue on a constant basis due to Autoimmune Hepatitis, thyroid disease and general joint pain. It sucks, but it's my life and it could be worse - no use crying over it! I'm constantly trying to restock my spoons! See http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/the_spoon_theory/ to find out why! Those people call me Nannyspoons. I am devoted to the other 5 best guys in the world - my brother, his 3 boys and my grand nephew. I don't have kids of my own, I have fur dogs and I've got 3 really great guys as nephews. I also have a grand nephew- not a great nephew - a GRAND nephew. Great isn't big enough for him! I'm disgustingly positive, cheerful and obsessed about organization. When you look in the dictionary under "glass half full" there's a picture of me. There is no glass half empty - how could there be - it's half full!
