I'll introduce myself. My name is Amanda, I have to sons who are my whole world and I'm a single working mother. Times are stressful as their father doesn't help and usually causes problems. I truly love to work and enjoy what I do. I'm working for a local physicians group by billing and collecting from insurances or patients; I tend to go back and forth between insurance collections and patient collections.

I genuinely try to help people all the time and will go out of my way to do anything I can to help them, even someone I feel is an "enemy". My boys are my world and I couldn't imagine life without them. They essentially saved my life because I was on a road to destruction before I knew I was pregnant.Even though I seem stressed all the time, it's not them but the situation. Being a single parent is hard, you have to be the good cop and bad cop and never get to just be mom.

I'm an animal lover and have a dog (Charmer), 4 cats (1 inside, Dax, and 3 outside, Bella, Little Guy and Beaker) and 2 bantam chickens (Spike the rooster and Yoakie the hen). I would love to have more but I just don't have the space, time, or money at the moment to grow my little farm. Charmer likes to play with Spike and it's funny to watch a little rooster chase a dog around the yard that's four times his size.

Gardening has become a relaxing past time for me and I successfully have a Roma tomato plant, just dug up some baby carrots and my pineapple is finally coming out. I have three rose bushes i'm very proud of and a few other beautiful plants that make me smile. When life get's to me I just walk outside and tend to my plants and smell my flowers and remember I am blessed.
