Random Things about Me

When I was younger I'd always wanted a 4 year college degree. I'm now enjoying sewing and knitting classes more than I'd every enjoyed college classes!

I was able to study and obtain a 2 year degree while our children were also going to college, thanks to a VERY great hubby.

Chocolate Carvel is in my top 10 favorite foods. Winter or summer, my car can frequently be seen at the local stand.

I teach machine sewing at our local adult ed and thoroughly enjoy it.

Pool or not, summer is beach time. I still enjoy packing a picnic lunch and my book and head to the beach for R&R.

I resent having to pay the entrance fee at the state park which is less than 1 mile away. We pay huge taxes and feel the fee should be offset for local residents with proof of payment of property taxes.

I'm not liking the snow as much as I used to.

I've set up monthly goals for myself for 2010 - one sewing project per month. So far, this has been a big failure.

Whenever possible I try to get a book from the library on cd, tape or download to an MP3. That way I can knit or sew and read at the same time.

I was lucky to meet my love and best friend at a very early age. We've been together for 45 years and our birthdays are the same day.
