Goals


I am a goal setter...it gives me direction...something to work toward...meaning...and a sense of accomplishment.
Throughout life I have learned to be flexible with my goals...modifying them as needed to accommodate what is right...life...family...etc

Personal Life Goals:

Solid Marriage...healthy well-mannered children...extended family...Love!
A home that meets our needs...pets to enjoy...friends...Spiritual Connection...
Home decorating...updating...remoldeling...backyard farming...gardening...hobbies (crochet, bead work, writing, digital scrap booking, art)

Career Goals Completed:

Become an RN...get a BSN...build a rewarding progressive career
Design, build and operate my own Nursing Business (Nostalgic Nursing Services)
Administration Director Positions...Nursing Foot Care Specialist Training Completed... Nursing Informatics Training Completed... Health Educator (Health care Facility Staff Development and Community College Teacher)...Case Management Specialist (Community-Based and Acute Care)

What Now????

For the last few years I have invested a great deal of time and research on Acute Porphyria... first in a search for a diagnosis to my health problems... then as a proactive self treatment investment...
Then I thought I would like to finish my MSN in Nursing Genetics/Genomics to provide counseling and case management for individuals diagnosed with in-born errors of metabolism...I found two or three great web-based Nursing Genetic/Genomic certification programs that would supplement any MSN program
My passion is the influence of life choices and environmental factors on genetic expression and disease management!!!
I support the development of individualized genomic medicine!
I found a terrific training program for "Healthy Home Specialist" (environmental evaluations).
The reality is that with my life, my family and my health demands... my endurance is a fraction of what it used to be...although I still have last year's research...I have let go of the plan to seek a MSN in Genetic/Genomics...I am only able to work part-time and it would just be Too Much!

    With your focus, determination and faith, I have every confidence that you will realize ALL of your goals.(if the Lord wills) With every goal that you reach, you send showers of blessings out upon others because your goals are always focused on helping others. You have always "loved the broken ones"!

Emotional Catharsis

Life Unscripted As previously mentioned we recently spent a few weeks in my hometown area related to my oldest daughter's wedding. The wedding day came and went without issue. My baby girl was a beautiful bride and is now a happy Mrs.to her Mr.. The second week of our time there was scheduled as "down time"... time to relax and enjoy visiting with friends and family. One day that second week I awoke feeling the need to re-connect with my past; to settle emotional "loose strings"; to change somethings about my life. We had traveled home in my husband's old manual stick shift F150 truck... kayak on top... back packed full of everything but the kitchen sink. I don't drive his truck as well as I should to go out on my own for the day, besides a good insightful partner would probably make my journey a little easier. I called my step-mom and she said she would be right over and take me wherever I needed to go. As I got ready to go my husband and my boys were ...

Long Time No Post

Life has been a whirlwind of activity, work, travel, family events and motion. While I embrace life in forward motion it is a special jewel when a moment of calm presents itself. So many people are caught in a whirlwind of, "life in motion" these days... As I talk with friends and family members my prayer list grows ever longer and my spirit can struggle to "focus on the positive"... In my heart I truly believe that focusing on the positive and working through the challenges is the best way to navigate this life. I have so very much that I am grateful for... so many blessings... God will help manage the rest:-)
