I am diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. I have worked as a family childcare provider, a foster parent, a front desk agent for a motel, and most currently am a housewife. I also homeschooled my now adult son throughout his education. I am an animal lover, and currently include in my family four chihuahua dogs, and a cat. I like knitting, sewing, and most especially enjoy writing and research. I have allergies to eggs, powdered cheese sauce, feathers, dust, mold, and grass. I am also intolerant to dairy, though I still eat some cheese, yogurt, and ice cream. I am vegetarian, though as mentioned above I cannot eat eggs, and try to avoid dairy.
