About Me

The nickname says it all *G* I have been playing with computers for over 20 years and started with the Atari 400.

I programmed a little train to go half way across the screen, stop and go "toot toot!" and then keep on going.

As a stay at home mom, I had a lot of time to teach myself computers and programming.

My hubby and I then taught our daughter, and she now has a very good job with a domain registrar for enterprise accounts.

I was a teacher in the evening program at the local university and enjoyed it immensely.

My three favorite topics are dogs, dolphins, and dragonflies!!

But now I have fibromyalgia , osteoarthritis in my spine, hands, and knees ; migraine disease, rheumatoid arthritis , sleep apnea, narcolepsy, TMJ, carpal tunnel syndrome, and all kinds of fun little painful conditions that make it impossible for me to do a 40 hr week job.

Apr 22, 2008 I have just been to the eye doctor and have the beginnings of cataracts. Sigh...

Now, I'm just waiting for my time to face the judge for SSDI while we live off our savings.

Update:  I found out I should be receiving a letter soon from SSA about my hearing.  FINALLY LOL!

Also, I'm taking Humira for my RA and it seems to be helping.  I'm still on prednisone but should be taken off on my next visit.
