Me, age 29 (What????...that's my story and I'm sticking with it!!) -happily married for nigh on to 28 years to the same HOTTIE! Mother of 2, stepmother of 3, GRANDmum of 5, GREATgrandmum of 1, buddy of 1 furrydoglet. Native American descent, former homeschooling Mom, artist (I paint w/oils and mostly acrylics), former junque' dealer, DEBT-FREE!!!, RAWkstar. My two sons 24, and 22 still live at home and likely always might, they were adopted w/special needs.

We just downsized from a 3 story farmhouse to a No Stairs! Geezer Ready Shower Condo in an awesome resort like complex for retirement. Someone else takes care of all the lawncare and outside upkeep! Hooorah!! Lock the door and travel because there's 24 hour security! We are blessed, but it was a LOT of work getting here. Also, while we were downsizing our home, I also closed out my two antique booths, so I've literally unloaded multiple tons of 'good stuff' junque'! Now to unload my butte' from it's tonnage w/MORE rawsomeness menus!

“… every so-called disease is a crisis of toxemia, which means that toxin has accumulated in the blood above the toleration point. … the crisis, the so-called disease – call it cold, flu, pneumonia, headache, or typhoid fever – is a vicarious elimination. Nature is endeavoring to rid the body of toxin.” ~~Toxemia Explained p. 49, J.H. Tilden, M.D.

I think we have a lot in common judging by your profile page - sense of humour and appreciation of creativity - lovely video. But no grandchildren in my life at this point and that's fine too (need a rest!).

Hope to catch up from time to time.

All the very best for 2012.
