I have been a stay at home mom for 23 years. I spent a few years caring for my grandma while trying to keep her in her home as long as possible as her health deteriorated due to dementia. I've volunteered in a number of capacities but always wanted to find things that kept my evenings and weekends open for my family. I enjoy playing and listening to music, crocheting, quilting, reading, taking walks, the Michigan beaches and spending time with my family and friends. I am pretty laid back and fun loving but I also like a good plan and organization.
