Hi! My name is Laurie I graduated in 2005 from a diploma program. Have had a busy year. Got divorced in March after nearly 25 years of marriage. Remarried in July to a wonderful man named Kevin. I have three wonderful daughters ages 23, 21 and 18. My hubby has a duahgter 18. Also lost my dad in July four days before my wedding. My step daughter ran away in October a month before her 18th birthday and we haven't heard from we know she is okay because she has talked to her mother but she refuses to talk to her dad. He is taking it really hard since he has but his whole life into her for 18 years. So I am here looking for friends to talk to BS with laugh with cry with etc. I live in Oh but work in Pittsburgh ,PA for UPMC. I work on a step down unit but am hoping to get into pediatrics or OB. I interviewed for a labor and delivery job a week and a half ago and am hoping for the best. I am going to take a motorcycle class in the spring and my hubby is going to buy me a bike. He has two, an old Honda Gold Wing and a 2007 Victory that I bought him for a wedding present. I could go on and on its been a very busy year and its not over. My oldest is getting married in December so we are trying to get every thing done within a small budget, not an easy task. Well I look forward to hearing from you. Have a wonderful Christmas.
Laurie

Welcome! You have had a busy year, both good and bad. Is it always like this for you? Planning a wedding is so much fun! (even on a low budget) This is a great site. A great place to laugh, to cry and to BS. I'll be talking to ya!

Wow what a busy year you have had, but things will get better for you! I am from Ohio also and my only daughter (I also have 3 sons) got marriend on Dec.4th. We had only 5 months and a small budget also to plan her wedding. She was in the Navy and came back from Irag to tell us she had decided what day she wanted to get married. Small budgets can still make for a beautiful wedding, I know because it worked for us. Let us know how it went and how your family is doing.
