| I would like to take some time to tell you a little about myself and my family. My name is Mimi and have been very happy married to my best friend Ray for 39 years; yes I am not a young lady any more. We live in the North East and can�t wait till it is time for retirement so we can relocate to North Carolina; we fell in love with the Outer Banks, what a wonderful place to go and see the glory of the Father�s hand as He paints the sky each morning and fills them with lovely sea birds. We have 3 grown children and 10 lovely grandchildren who range in ages from 15 years to 6 months. They are all are the joys of our lives. Our oldest daughter�s 15 yrs old son plays baseball and football and also does weight lifting, his brother, 10 yrs old like to bowl, their next brother, 9 yrs old plays baseball and football also, and the youngest, 6 months, well he likes to play with his toys, but I am sure that he will end up being a football player too. Our middle daughter�s son, 9 likes to play baseball also his 8 yrs old brother, their 4 yrs old sister likes to play dress up and wants to be a dancer. Our son his son 8 yrs old like to play baseball also does his 7 yrs old sister, she also would like to take dance, and their 18 month old sister like baby dolls and sing and dance. I use to work as an LPN at the local hospital and then for 3 different doctors before depression got the best of me and I had to go on disability, so after all those years, I got to be a stay at home wife. Not that our children were old enough to take care of themselves, I felt that I had nothing to do, worthless, and did not want the patients that I got close that they may find out what was wrong, like a nurse could not get depression. So I stayed away from the mall, and other busy shopping centers. My favorite places to go shopping at was the thrift stores, they generally were not busy. Even Church would get to me at times also, there I was in the biggest Parish in town and felt like I could hide, by that didn�t work either. Slowly I worked myself to except the fact that others felt the same as I did, and actually forced myself to join art classes and an organization for children. It has been over 10 years, and I still really don�t like to go places by myself, I am afraid that I might get an anxiety attack and not am able to get out of the store quick enough. Anyone that has not went through any form of depression, may you be blessed. As you are going through my home, you will see I have many interests, my hubby tells me to stop starting more and only work on the ones that I have. But what would I do with the all of the ones that I already have? |
