About Me

Massachusetts, United States
I am 41 years old. I have been married to my husband for 15 years. We have a son who was born in April 1996. We live in Central Massachusetts with our dog Maggie (a black lab we adopted from the animal rescue league) and our cat Sam (a stray that adopted us) I graduated from college with a BFA in Theatre in 1993 (hence the name) and for a few years pursued a career as an actress. Then life took over and I got married, had a baby and decided to get a "real" job. In November 2004, I was diagnosed with Young Onset Parkinson's disease. In December 2004, I was hospitalized for surgery to remove an ectopic pregnancy. In December 2009, I was laid off from my job. In June 2010, my son was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at the age of 14. Stick around to see what happens next!

Happy New Year!!

Well, 5 days in and I am finally coming up for some air.

I've been sick since New Years Day with this terrible cold thing that everyone in my office has had. It turned into a sinus infection. Today is the first day I've been at work this week.

P's uncle passed away on Dec 30th so we had the wake and funeral this week. It was an interesting experience. I'll write more about that later. Let me just say that I am sooo glad my husband is adopted! It really does explain why he is so radically different than almost EVERYONE in his family...including his mother. Who is a whole story onto herself. I'll give you a tease...she turns to me when we are at the lunch after the funeral and out of the blue says "I wish we could be friends and hang out. Go for lunches and shopping"...I didn't know quite what to say to her. I thought we were friends???

Anyway, must run because I am late leaving work. I am so glad it's Friday and I can relax this weekend. Well...I have to put away all the Christmas stuff and do laundry and clean...but we don't have to be anywhere.

Toodles!
