Hi there
My name is Cindy and I am 68 years old in very good shape.
I raised three children, and I have 6 wonderful grandbabies and 4 gorgeous great -grandbabies. Until a couple years ago, I lived very close to my family until they moved to New York
I was hands-on with the upbringing of my grandkids which are now in their 20s and I visit my great grandkids normally three or four times a year in New York.
I’m relocating in the very near future to New York to be closer to my kids ,grandkids and great grandbabies. ( they live in Queens ).
Would like a live -in any position so I could be closer to my family. I’m relocating from Northern Arkansas.
