I am a clinical social worker, working as a mental health therapist at an alternative school..? I am diabetic, and recently have begun working on counting carbs to get my blood sugar under control. I am a single parent with an adult son who has Asperger Syndrome, an autistic spectrum disorder. He's a picky eater, has some sensory issues I have to pay attention to. I also aid my elderly mother. I enjoy reading science fiction and fantasy, playing folk guitar and singing.? Feeding two is a challenge for me because I was raised cooking for a crowd. But I love cooking for crowds, and for holidays, when I can!
