I'm 51 years old and have never married. I have a son, Andy who is in the Air Force. We talk weekly since he's back in the US. I missed him while he was overseas. I enjoyed raising Andy bacause he was such a good kid.

I worked as an Information System Specialist in Duluth, MN, Miami, FL, and finally St Paul, MN. I was layed off and couldn't handle it. Spent a few (more than 2) weeks in the hospital and am diagnosed as bipolar and severe major depression. I have been on SSD for about 3 years.

I don't have much of a relationship with the rest of my family. They just don't understand my mental illness and don't want to.

My family consists of my son Andy, my 3 yr old Yorkie, Misty, my 13 yr old cocker spaniel, Mazie, and my 6 month old maltese, Cassie. My pups are everything. I am dreading the day that Mazie dies. She currently is blind in one eye. She's going deaf. She sleeps a lot. She also has a lump on her spine that I'm afraid is cancer and at her age, surgery would probably kill her.

I don't cook a lot since it's only me.

That's about all.
