Hi to everyone. I'm married, 2 daughters - 11 & 17, live in Northern Virginia. Have a degree in social work, but when I burnt out from that, went to school for interior design (my true passion) and have been doing that off and on since. I also do free-hand decorative painting. My family and I have moved around alot- N.Y. (Long Island), Philadelphia, Dallas, even Sydney,Australia for a year. (Loved it there- you Aussies are so lucky to call Australia home, IMO.)
Mental illness is rampant in my family; mother & brother committed suicide. Paternal grandmother spent most of her adult life in institutions. I just lost my older brother (age 48) last week, not to suicide, unless you consider long term self destructive behavior as suicide. I'm still stunned by his death.
Yo-wazzzup - you are a shining example of the best in the human spirit. An inspiration. When you get down, try to remember the confidence we all have in you.
