I AM A RETIRED ESTHETICIAN AND MAKEUP ARTIST. I HAD TO SEMI-RETIRE DUE TO MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS, WHICH FINALLY GOT THE BETTER OF MY LOVELY LEGS AFTER 30 YEARS.FOR SEVERAL YEARS I WAS WORKING FROM HOME, BUT IN LATE 2006, AFTER A MEDITERRANEAN CRUISE AND A VISIT TO BARCELONA, I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH VERY SERIOUS ILLNESS.
I'M HAPPY TO SAY THAT I SURVIVED THE SLICING AND DICING WITH THE AID OF SOME HELPFUL NEWTONBROOKERS LIKE, ROSEMERANGUE, TEFLON RON, THE HEAVY METAL KING DAVID, ROCKIN' RHONDA, CATASTROPHIC PHIL, DEBBIE DOES EVERYTHING, HAVIVA YA'LL, AND POST- PRO LEE.
AFTER A SECOND SURGERY I WAS FORCED TO QUIT WORKING COMPLETELY BUT
I AM FAR FROM BORED . I AM DETERMINED TO GET EVERYTHING THAT I CAN OUT OF LIFE, EVEN IF IT KILLS ME. HAHAHA!!
BEING DISABLED, THE ONLY THINGS STANDING IN MY WAY ARE STEPS AND COBBLESTONES, BUT I'M ADVOCATING FOR THEIR WORLD-WIDE REMOVAL. CLOSER TO HOME, THE RAZING AND RE-BUILDING OF YORKVILLE AT STREET LEVEL WOULD BE A DREAM COME TRUE.
I LOVE SIMPLE THINGS LIKE STANDING UP WITHOUT LOSING MY BALANCE, PLUS TRAVELLING, READING, PHOTOGRAPHY, BEING OUT OF DOORS, SMILING AND MAKING MY FRIENDS LAUGH.
THANKS RHONDA K-G FOR PUTTING THE REUNION TOGETHER AGAIN. I DIDN'T WANT TO GO 5 YEARS AGO, BUT I'M SURE GLAD I DID. XXX
