So We're Off (In More Ways Than One)

So this could be an interesting trip for all of us. As most of my family can tell you proper punctuation and spelling are definitely not my forte. So no comments please!!!!

  I guess I should tell you a little about me. My name is Yvonne. I am the mother of three (2 biologicals {is that a word?} and 1 "step". Now before anyone gets bent out of shape about the quotation marks, I never married my partner so technically this step child isn't legally or biologically mine but I still consider him one of mine.

 I'm a pretty good cook (recipes to follow possibly). I attended Pima Community College back in the day. I never finished an associates degree, though only need about a semester to finish at least three different degrees. I also attended Pima Medical Institute and did graduate with Honors in my field of study.

As of this post I'm 50 years old (older than I ever thought I'd see). I've been close to death or dead three times in my life (stories to follow eventually). I am a spiritual person. I say this because yes I do believe in God the Father, his Son Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I also believe that this universe is based in Male/Female. Think of me what you will, no one says you have to read what I post.

I've raised my kids to the best of my ability. I by no means have ever nor will ever claim to be a great parent. I will say this though they did make it to 18...lol. Hopefully I'll do better as a Grandparent should I ever become one.

I'm blunt, stubborn, a leo and down right pigheaded at times. I rarely apologize because I am a leo and we are rarely wrong!!!! I had a drinking and drug problem when I was younger. I am bisexual and again I will not apologize. When I came out to my mom around the age of 29 she said and I quote " I knew that when you were in middle school" all I could think was " You could've given me a clue!!!!".

So there it is... my first post. A lot of people have told me I need to write out my life, it's better than a soap opera. I say it's worth a three night miniseries...lol.

Till Next Time Please Remember....
Tell the people in your life you love them, OFTEN, friends, family, it doesn't matter who. You never know if that next time will be the last chance you have to tell them.
