About Me

Creating web pages started out as a hobby of mine and has given me a lot of enjoyment.  After helping to build websites for several friends and a business or two over the past couple years, I decided to open my own web page business.  During all this I never took the time to work on my own site.   For the most part, personal web pages are nothing more than a waste of digital space on the Internet and I suppose this one will be no different.  In many ways websites have become the 90's version of vacation slides and home movies that used to bore us all to tears.  At least here you have the advantage of being able to sneak off without being seen by the egomaniac who keeps flashing his (or her) slides to a captive audience.

So before you slip out the door, I'll give you a little background on myself.  I'm a baby boomer who's been married to the same man for over 33 years and the mother of three sons; ages 32, 29, and 19.  The youngest is the only one left at home, at least until we convince him to find a place of his own.  Both of our older sons are married and we have 2 grandchildren and 3 step-grandchildren.

I have numerous hobbies and interests but the primary one is the computer.  Learning to design web pages provided a means to express myself artistically.  OK, so now you know, I'm a geek-granny.  I got hooked on computers when I got my kids their first Atari game and we went from that to a Commodore 64, which I still have and it works.  It's surprising at what that little thing can do.  Before I graduated to a real computer, I published a monthly newsletter for my department at work and did it all on my trusty, old Commodore.  We currently have two computers we use at home and are just about to invest in the third and pass on one of the older models to one of kids.

Some of my other interest include; fishing, nature, genealogy, arts and crafts, music and anything relating to Native Americans and their culture.  I'm still searching for the links to our Native American roots but haven't had much luck.  I also enjoy collecting recipes, pigs (small figurines, not the real thing) and jigsaw puzzles.  In truth, I'm a certified junk collector and have tons of it to prove my statement.

I hope to create pages on each of the many subjects that catch my fancy and find others who share a similar interest and share a bit about my wonderful family.  One of the nicest features on the Internet are the numerous web rings on any topic you can imagine and a few you'd never dream of up in your widest fantasy.  In time I plan to join a few to give you all a whirlwind tour of sites around the world.

So that's about it and probably it was too much for anyone dropping in by accident.  To my family and friends who are visiting here:   There will be a quiz to see if you really did read any of this so you may as well sit back and humor me.  You know how sensitive I can be. :-)
