My name is Amber, I don't know what to say really I have a hard time declaring that I am this or that or what my likes or dislikes are to me everything is kinda situational.... - onHi! A little about me. I'm a Wisconsinite. I am in my first year of retirement from teaching. I feel I have had lots of different experiences both in school and out of school. I am a cardiac arrest survivor from ventricular fibrillation and had an 80% blockage angioplastied. Last year I had my first battery replacement. I am married and my husband has 1 year of retirement in. We have 2 adult sons. The oldest is married and is a step dad. The youngest is not married yet. My parents are deceased and I have no siblings. My life has been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, right from my birth. I enjoy camping, gardening (though I am not a green thumb), family and my Chihuahua/ beagle, Snoopy. I am a person full of life experience contrast, one beingcontrasts such as being spiritual yet not church going. I hope my experiences can help others. 😀byMinnie...
