12 Things about me. Number I was given: 12. Like this and Ill give you a number. 1. If you are my friend I treasure you and I will always be loyal to you. 2. I am terrible at handling the ‘paper work’ in my life. I pile it up and then I finally go through it to find some important item or two and I finally get through it that way. Thank God that I now pay my bills on-line – that little addition to my life has made me a much prompter bill payer. 3. I am very thankful for all that I have especially my daughter Nicole, Neil and the best rewards of my life that are my grandchildren. They have brought to me a joy that is beyond anything I ever dreamed of having. 4. I’m so proud of Nicole for ALL that she is and has become. She is an amazing woman. 5. I had much to handle as a young mother and I learned from all my trials of raising my babies that are now in Heaven that I would NEVER take anything for granted in my life. I deeply appreciate all that I have and I have learned to never sweat the ‘small’ stuff. 6. About a month and a half after my youngest baby Michelle’s death - she appeared to me one evening. She touched me and when I looked – there she Stood with a slight glow all around her. She told me not to worry, that she was happy and was now whole as she had never been in life. She told me she could see, talk, walk and that there was no pain any longer. All the things she never had in life she now had in Heaven. A year later, when my Andrew joined Michelle – I only felt a great peace in knowing that he too would be as ‘whole’ as Michelle and the pain would be gone. With all of that, my pain was also gone. I am not the Church goer that I once was, but I have a much deeper belief in God. I am at peace now with my life which was not the case until after I turned 40. 7. I learned much from my wonderful Mother and I thank her for all she gave to me and I speak only in terms of never giving up and being strong in my life no matter what was dealt to me. She was always there for me. 8. In basic terms I’m a very happy person and I nearly always see the glass half full. 9. I was fortunate enough to have a great job over the past 35 years and retirement has made me wonder how I ever had to the time to work and live my life all at the same time. I’ve been fairly busy over the past months but am now settling down and trying to get into a better routine. It’s getting better each day. 10. I was a Tomboy when I was young. I was fairly athletic and strong even after being diagnosed with MS (thankfully, I went into remission and have remained there). I tend to ‘teeter’ sometimes when I walk and I don’t dance Greek nearly as well as I did in my youth. I have lots of nerve damage in my body and I often forget my limits even now. 11. I’m a procrastinator. Not a good trait but I do wonders when I’m given a deadline. 12. Finally, I truly miss all the wonderful people that are now gone and when I think of them, I usually end up smiling for the joy they brought to my life. My parents, uncles, aunts, my godparents, my children and friends and many people that were part of my life will ALWAYS be in my heart and my mind until I see them again.
