Retired after working with Battered Women for 25 years, beginning when services were in their infancy.  I rescue feral cats and am active in animal rights groups.  Frustrated writer.  Metaphysical.  After retirement pursued alternative health issues and received training in auriculotherapy, healing touch and reflexology.  I possess good business management skills and have been actively sought to manage small businesses.  I consider myself to be a good friend and neighbor and am always willing to lend a hand.
