I am Sharon. I am a single mom with 2 beautiful boys.
I grew up in Michigan, the baby of 5. I went to University of Detroit and became an architect. I lived in Chicago for a few years but moved back to Michigan when I got tired of always being poor. Just as I managed to buy my own home, I fell in love with Gail. We married and had kids. I continued to work at home after the boys were born. Then Gail got cancer, his company was bought out and we got transferred to Florida in 2000. I never thought I would like Florida, I have never been a fan of heat but I met some wonderful women who made me feel at home. Gail’s cancer came back and he died in 2001. I decided to stay here with my boys.
The boys are doing well despite their diagnosis of autism. And my dad comes down every winter. I have not pursued getting my architectural license down here as that no longer is my goal to work as an architect. I have been trying to figure out what I want to be or do when the boys are able to take care of themselves. I did have an online scrapbooking retail store but the economy couldn’t support it and I closed in November 2009.
Though I don’t have much free time, I do have some hobbies. I found gardening to be fun only in the planning and planting stages, upkeep is a bore. I do love to read and listen to music. Currently, I am enjoying photography and card-making.
