Hello Everyone,
I am a mother of 3 and grandmother of 6. I have two married daughters and one single son. I
have been in every state in the United States except Alaska. Hope to make it there some
day! I went to college for one year in England and the college quit, I didn't! HA! Yep, the
campus closed down while I was home on summer vacation and all my belongings were
dumped into a huge box and sent to me. (minus a few things that I still miss.) I have
traveled to Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, France, Austria, Canada, and Mexico. As a child
when first learning to read we used to travel in the car a LOT... and I would read EVERY
sign along the highway that we came to...driving my parents and sister nuts!!! [grin] This
all tranlated into me being an AVID reader. I ALWAYS have a book going and couldn't
stand it if I did not. The first book I ever recall reading was called, "The Blue Willow" in the
first grade. Still like the book. ha! Around 12 or so I graduated to the novel phase and
read all of the Victoria Holt, Phyllis Whitney, and Daphne DuMurier stuff I could get my hands
on. I think those books and my Dad gave me a pretty expansive vocabulary. Now days I am
heavily into biographies and autobiographies. Especially truimph out of tragedy! I like to see how
people have beat the odds and persevered through hardships. These people inspire me
I am also into books on spirituality. I love science. I love nature. I am an "artist." Am REALLY into photography now. Just got a new Canon Rebel and am loving it!!! I sew (I've even made a man's 3 piece suit)
I knit. I crochet (BOY, do I ever!!!!!!) . I can. I make jams and jellies and wine. I make candles and soap. I assemble bbquers, wire light fixtures, build cat houses, and hook up surround sound systems, and more..... As
you can see I am basically HUNGRY for knowledge of any kind. I LOVE to learn!!! Always
have, always will! AND I come from a place of LOVE! It is my modus operandi. mon raison d'etre..... namaste!
