Between a Hard Place and the Rock
A hard place...
rends my heart
fills my mind
crushes my spirit.
So I...
run to the refuge of
flee to the shadow of
crawl to the shelter of
The Rock.

About Me
- Grandma Ruthie
- I am a mother of 4 and grandmother of 11. I live in a retirement community in Florida most of the year, but still have a cottage in upstate New York. I was happily married for almost 54 years, and I recently lost my husband quite unexpectedly. I was a Registered Nurse and have Bachelor's and Master's degrees. I have worked at various times as a nurse and as a teacher. My interests include: reading, knitting, crocheting, sewing, baking, writing poetry, embroidery, swimming, and a whole lot more. My children have given me experience with extreme food allergies, asthma, ADHD, spina bifida, learning disabilities, and genius. I also have 16 years experience as a home-schooling parent.
