I'm living spirit filled faith based lifestyle and am dedicated to empowering others to have the blessed life they deserve.

At age 67, I find life to be rich and full, with 16 wonderful grandchildren and the kind of man every woman dreams of marrying! This last year has brought a profound realization of my need for true improvement on a personal level. God's Word says that when sin comes in like a flood, God raises a Standard. I believe our people in our country and our families are in sore need of this; on a personal level I want to exhibit God's Standard daily. On a business level, I am able to offer a lifetime of empathy and understanding to others in need, person to person. Professionally, I offer a complimentary demonstration of the perfect non-sugical facelift. Also, I am offering Homeopathic HCG Diet Drops along with consultation as needed. When I say "I", I actually am indicating "we", as my husband and I are one in our business endeavors. Heart - to - Heart, is our motto, now.

Well I am a 26 year old recovering alcoholic, mother of a two year old, nursing student, and wife. I am a very passionate woman and want to write a biography so that I may help someone else.. I never thought my addiction would ever turn into something that could benefit others. That weekend I realized that my mission in life is to teach alcoholic mothers the importance of sobriety for the sake of their children. As I write this I am eighty days sober and looking forward to touching the hearts of others that are going through the process of addiction like I have. I will always be an alcoholic but I am very proud to say that I am a recovering one. It amazes me how all of the things I had seen or been through never made me open my eyes, but the touch of a tiny hand turned my whole world around. I am now a nursing student with a 4.0 gpa and better person to be around. I have also learned that God does forgive me and I forgive myself. I hope that my story has touched you in a way that you feel hope. Until then. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the knowledge to know the difference. (Niebuhr)
