About

My name is Cheryl, and I am 41 years old. I am married, and we have two cats: Periwinkle and Asher, and two dogs: Layla and Maggie.  I live in a suburb outside of a large Southern city. I am, however, a Yankee, and grew up in the Northeast. I am a speech language pathologist who is currently working as an Assistive Technology Specialist for a medium sized school district. That means I help students with disabilities access their educational environment through equipment/technology, including communication devices. I attend a small non denominational church. My spiritual calling is prayer. In my free time, I enjoy playing with my dogs and cats (mostly dogs, cats are self entertaining). I like to read, write, watch TV, play word games, do puzzles, swim, and given the opportunity, kayak. I am introvert who will talk a lot when I get to know you. But at the end of the day I need me time. I am on a journey through a collection of chronic health conditions that include ADHD,  fibromyalgia, and interstitial cystitis. I look fine, but I often feel physically terrible. If you can’t find me, I just might be in the bathroom.

This is my husband Jon and I at my brother’s wedding in October, 2012.

Here are Periwinkle (tabby) and Asher (not tabby).

Here are Layla (doberman) and Maggie (shepherd/husky).
