I created The Tumbleweed Express in 2012 in hopes of starting my own business. I started off with selling things around my home that I no longer needed, then that led me to Vintage and Collectible items that I find at Estate Sales and it just took off from there! I love photography so taking pictures of my items is another passion in my life, as well as writing short stories and even my first novel!
My love for photography continued to grow when I met the love of my life in 2010. It had always been my dream to go yo Colorado...and my soon to be fiance would be the one ho make this dream of mine come true. You inspire me. From the first day we met, you brought upon feelngs within me I had never known...or have known again since the day I lost you. These pages are dedicated to you. The simple thought of you continues to inspire me, keeping that passion alive. In my photography I attempt to re-capture our Truth...the only Truth I have ever known because I will continue to search for the beauty, love, and passion that was captured with not only your laughter, but your smile...a smile that captures the attention of everyone kn your presence. You still take my breath away Jenny.
I've been a Registered Nurse for over 15 years and can honestly say without hesitation that I LOVE my job. I love my career. I was a Neonatal Intensive Care Nurse for 9 years, spent time working in the ER as well as several years of Home Healthcare, Hospice and Long Term Care.
Another joy in my life is being a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for children in the Foster Care system. This is a volunteer position but the training course was just over three months with continuing education credits required every year. I was sworn in by a District Judge and represent children in the Foster Care system. I spend an average of 30 hours in this volunteer position advocating for the best interest of the children I represent. I testify in court, see each of these children face to face twice a week, attend school meetings and after school activities and so much more. As long as I can remember I have wanted to be a voice for those who are unable to speak for themselves. I believe I have found my true calling along this journey of life.
I have been blessed with a son who is still rather young. Although his biological father is not in his life, he is a happy, caring and loving child who is loved by many.
I met the love of my life six years ago. I honestly did not believe that such love even existed until I met this person. I felt emotions and experienced feelings I have never felt. I've always held onto the hope of there being a "soul mate" for each and every one of us-that God has a plan for each of us. I met this person in my early 30's and at times questioned why all the heartache, pain and feelings of abandonment I had felt with prior relationships. Why must we- or at least some of us have to endure such heartache? Well, when I met this person...my Truth...I no longer have those questions. We met exactly when we were supposed to at the exact right moment in both of our lives. Madly...Deeply...Completely. Our Truth. For you my love have inspired me to purse my dreams. With your support and love, I have accomplished more than I ever dreamed possible. I love you. Not a single day goes by that I do not think about you and I, our children, and our life together. You are a part of me now and forever will be. I love you unconditionally and without question. Our Truth is our foundation and the years spent together have been built upon that foundation. I love you. You showed me the true me. You opened my eyes to my real self. The person I have always wanted to be but could never quite make it there. You forever have my heart. It belongs only to you.
Madly...
Deeply...
Completely...
