It's so interesting to read about everyone and their life experiences. All are so different from each other with a few commonalities and of course our love of yorkies being the most significant.
I am one of seven siblings (6 girls, 1 boy), 5 still alive. My brother and I were extremely close being only a year apart in age, we grew up like twins. His death in 1998 at 39 y/o forever changed me and my perspective on life.
I started working at 13 y/o for a display company. We designed store display windows, made parade floats, decorated for proms, weddings, corporate parties and made just about any thing else a customer needed us to create. I still and always will enjoy creating things, either with my sewing or in our many garden areas.
Been married 30 years to the most wonderful man on earth, IMO. God has been good to me, and found exactly who I needed to make my life here complete. We have two almost perfect sons, Blake (26) and Chris (23). It's endearing to see just how much like their father they have become. Blake is married and Chris is engaged, both to women that I adore. Mitch is my nephew that lived with us for several years after my brother's death. He is a very dear man of 29 and single for now.
I've worked many jobs and it was my last job that brought me to Ruby and YT. I worked front desk at a local hotel, a guest one morning had me hold her yorkie boy. Up til then I had never been a "dog person" but there was something about that yorkie that captured my interest and heart.
I always wanted to be a SAHM, but could never afford to do so. Shortly after getting Ruby, our situation changed and I was able to quit working. So, although I couldn't be a SAHM mom for our sons, I have been fortunate and grateful to be that for Ruby. Also, this has allowed me the privilege of working with yorkie rescue....my most satisfying work to date♥
I love spicy food, enjoy cooking but hate the clean-up.
When no one is home to witness it, I love to sing and dance.
There are five seasons in my world.....winter, fall, summer, spring and Sooner Football.
