Hi, I’m Yvette Dulohery

Hello!
I am one of you who has torches to pass on! Plus I am of the older category…so better do this soon or you won’t get anything!!! I am of the delusion that those of us who are “ancient” or as my youngest son calls me…a pterodactyl…have learned a few lessons. And as my Dad frequently told me…”You always have to do it the hard way!” So in the words of Tony Robbins, learn from…OPE-Other People’s Experiences so you don’t need to endure the pain and suffering that comes along with those life events. I wish that were always true…but NOT!

So, to introduce myself…I am a believer, an optimist, a “do-gooder”, and you’ve probably seen my heart on my sleeve a few times. I’m the oldest of 5 children, and the youngest of whom is an honest to goodness boy, who calls the 4 of us girls Nikkolinas, which means we are a little “different” and that difference is enough that we don’t care! I’m an ACE’s kid (Adverse Childhood Experiences), mother of 2 sons (and 1 daughter-in-law though she may not always appreciate being included in our family), and Grammy to 2 (of course) adorable grandchildren-one of each! I am a veteran-widow, retired nurse/ nurse-practitioner/faith community nurse, and a neophyte maven (Malcolm Gladwell’s definition, which means I love to learn and to connect the dots to the people to whom those connections may help)!

I am also a wannabe writer, new house builder, and so wanna look great in jeans and a swimming suit! That means I also have a piano keyboard in the basement that I haven’t used yet?!

Anyway-it is wonderful to meet you! I always say we can never have too many friends!

Best wishes,

Yvette
