About the Author

It has been my priviledge to practice Nursing since 1993. Each new position offered a new opportunity and I loved the mystery and learning from my patients. My girlfriends are extremely special to me, like sisters I have never had. I am known as the social butterfly and off we go on all kinds of adventures. I enjoy all the "girlfriend" type of get-to-gethers or outings. My 3 children have blessed me with 7 grandchildren. They range in ages from 3 - 12. We are expecting one more grandbaby in Feb. 2013. I have resided in Oregon for almost 35 years; so does the qualify as "nearly native"? My husband and I call Corvallis home.
