Who are you?
I am a wife to Chuck, mom to Sarah and Logan, daughter to Arthur, and caregiver to all of these wonderful people in my life.
I am almost obnoxiously optimistic — I’ve been told it can be annoying — I truly can find the positive in most situations.
I love spending time with friends and family and get very lonely when I’m not around people.
I have been called the life of the party, and I won’t elaborate on that.
