I am a married Mom of 23 year old son I had to stop working in 2012 due to fibromyalgia. Hence, I became a Swap Bot member. We have 2 furbabies. Abby is a 7 year old Jack Russell and Bear is a 3 yr old deer head Chihuahua. Abby is my Husband's Baby and Bear is my Baby. Of course they switch it up with whoever is giving out the love and treats.

My favorite music is country music, easy listening, jazz and new age/instrumental music.

I enjoy easy reading books by Robyn Carr, Debbie Macomber, BJ Daniels and a few other authors.

I enjoy learning medical information about fibromyalgia and it's 200+ symptoms as well as other illnesses such as Reynaud's Syndrome, RA Lupus, MS and other autoimmune disorders.

Since I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, I realize the importance of rest time during my day. If I am not sleepy, I will rest watching TV. I love to watch: Supergirl NCIS SVU Grey's Anatomy Blue Bloods Hawaii Five O The Mysteries of Laura The Wendy Williams Show The Talk Madame Secretary and a few other shows.

Paper crafting: My latest obsession is "Pocket Letters". I'm not sure if this would be considered a craft. I enjoy swapping postcards.

I enjoy volunteering at a local food bank 2x a week for about an hour each time. I assist with helping families obtain food, help them complete Food Stamp and Medicaid applications.

I also run a successful online Fibromyalgia support group. My online friends, many who are local, occasionally need help: going to doctor's appointments, accessing food banks, rides to various places, assistance with bus passes and obtaining medical care. Most of of all, everyone needs encouraging words on painful and frustrating days.
