Warning--this will be scatter. That's just how I am.
My name is Tabbie. I like to think of myself as a free spirited, down to earth type of woman. Am I really? Who knows. But that's how I feel. I love to be barefoot. Shoes are my enemy. I prefer my hair either down or up in a ponytail. I don't care for make up or dressing up (though I do own a couple cute dresses).
I am all about helping others. Family and friends tell me often I have a big heart. Do I really? I'm not sure. I do have a habit of helping others before myself, or without thinking (such as the time I made hubby run back to Walmart so I could give the corner "beggar" my Taco Bell). I will gladly donate my last dollar to a good cause. I'm big on helping when it comes to children, it's always been a passion. I've also been known to purchase things I didn't need, just for the sake of helping someone else. The unneeded item gets put to use though, as there is always someone out there that could use it.
I'm an avid Freecycle user. I'm constantly posting offers. I don't like to throw things out if I know they can still be used. And I love it when someone posts something I can make use of. I once scored over 40 yards of various fabric. Not just scraps, I'm talking piles of each fabric.
I do have various medical problems, but thank the Lord, nothing serious. I suffer from PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). For those who don't know, it basically translates to "many cysts on the ovaries". This is more annoying then anything. Certainly not life-threatening. It does cause for some uncomfortable menstrual cycles. And it puts a slight damper on my fertility (some PCOS sufferers can not conceive at all). The growing cysts can be very painful though. I also have Endometriosis. That's a tough one to explain. But, it is another medical condition of the female reproductive system. And far more worse/annoying then PCOS. For myself, it causes an overload of endo growth on my ovaries (as if I didn't have enough problems there), heavy-long lasting and painful periods. This is again another thing that puts a damper on my fertility.
I was recently diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease and Arthritis of the lower back. Neither are fun. I remain in constant pain. Imagine those mornings you wake up with a stiff back, but later in the day the pain dissolves. That's my pain, only x10 and it doesn't disappear.
There are no cures for any of these problems. So I learn to deal with them all. And that's a fun chore.
I'm happily married. Together my husband and I have 6 children. They are all truly blessings and I cherish them deeply.
Signed,
Super Mom
