About Me
i'm unemployed because of disablities. i come from a family where my now-deceased father was a serious alcoholic, so is my brother. I have a strong belief that SOME peope are capable of "controlled" drinking without moving on to drunkness. I was born and badly raised.. lol.. i always say .. in ottawa, ontario. i have a friend in the hospital who's trying to recover from brain surgery and i'm trying to unpack stuff from storage and i could go on an on.. but.. the sun is shining - and there are so many more pitiful than me. G*d bless-those who are suffering, those who are wondering - and those who have the ability and understanding that moving forward is a "process" not immediate - otherwise u might hurt urself. i know this for a FACT! ouch! lol.
Interests
whoops..I love reading, writing, cooking, handcrafts dialogue-both serious and humorous. meeting new friends and hanging on to them.

Close Degenerative Joint Disease
I was born with various congenital bone disorders that were not immediately obvious. I have scoliosis, something- misplaced kneecaps (rudely known as knock knees) which has caused me to develop arthritis - hallus vulgus,most severely on right foot. I'm awaiting surgery as we speak-walk with a cane - am in bad pain a lot of the time and limited from doing normal things. no more cycling for ME, dammit. I can't climb a kitchen stool, let alone a step ladder. My knees make noises. I fall a lot.
