I was born on a new moon, on Friday the 13th. And if that wasn't enough for my petrified mother having her first kid at 4 am, they stuck her in room no. 13 too.
Nevertheless I managed to push through till current age of 34 without major damage. Thinking about it, my childhood was great … catching firefly’s, swimming in the local pond, opening a matchbox hospital for all the wounded butterfly’s, hiding in the hay, supporting all the local cats, excavating bird skulls, running away from the local rooster and a pack of geese, etc.. Living on a farm was an adventure on its own. And when I will grow up I will be a veterinarian.
So I thought …
My first job was at age 12 in a storage room, sticking labels on cans. Not a very glam job to have, but at that age you don’t really care as long as it’s paid. I also assembled keyboards, been a school secretary, worked as a cleaning lady, worked in a bank and transport, been an escort for physically disabled, worked in health care, etc..
How far that veterinarian dream now seems to be. I finished my diploma in occupational therapy, but ended working in a school, with special needs, where I been for the last 7 years.
My interests change with the wind or every PMS cycle. I was/am interested in drawing (from pencil, chalk, watercolors, oil painting, wall paintings, textile, skin, digital, etc.), crafting, jewlery, home décor and DIY, sewing, gaming, photography, reading, poetry, etc.
I live with 4 cats and one pig (my man – he doesn’t mind the name calling, it is a small price to pay since I do all the cleaning).
What to expect from me? Even I do not know … But I do know it will probably be a mismatch of events and thoughts. Kind of like life itself.
life is indeed beautiful, welcome to the community of great people.
Ty! :)

I think I am going to enjoy following you, very interesting and (so far) have a lot in common (my Woman calls me 'the dog' though). I enjoy long walks on the beach and short lines in the store....
Well I think im going to enjoy beeing followed. :> You from argentina? (I snooped over some of your latest posts).
Snoop away! Not from Argentina, lived here for 3 years now (from the states, Mid-West country boy [well, a country boy when in the city and a city boy when in the country - but from the Center of the Universe & the Middle of Nowhere]).
;)
ahhh... I have some family there. My brother went last year and stayed with em for a month. When he got home he literally kissed the ground. He said it is ofc smth to see, but he would never manage to live there.
Indeed, I miss the diversity of the U.S. sometimes. And quality peanut butter. And real bacon (panceta just doesn't cut it).... and, MAPLE SYRUP!!! I miss maple syrup! And to ship it here would cost well over $40 for just 7 ounces (for just the shipping).
The people are cool though, and when I first got here the laws were so relaxed. But since it's getting worse and worse, like Pres Macri wants to mirror the U.S. in every way (particularly the war on drugs and prisons for profit).
But anywhooo.... getting a little off topic here. Hate to subject us to the spam police flag patrol.
;) ;) ;)
...my brother pointed out safety the most. Or should i say lack of it. I guess when u grow up with certain habits its a bit harder to adapt. I don't even lock my car. I can get up in the middle of the night and go for a run (never happened tho lol). I never check my wallet and see if its still there etc. And i never had maple syrup in my life. :>
I skipped everything what is not important and CATS! Oh how beautiful cats you have. Too bad I can't upvote and give you any money anymore, but welcome :)
Ty for the welcome! :)
