More about me

I am fluent in sign language having taught the deaf for over 13 years and now doing assessments in school settings for about 15 years.  

I enjoy gardening, music, and hiking/camping.  I attend church regularly and am an avid reader.  Love Joel Rosenberg's books. Sudoku is a fun activity to me.  I want to learn to line dance, and want to learn Spanish.

Just a note to add more info about me. I am 5 foot 9.  I have decided that I need to go into "older age" healthier and slimmer. I have been doing some walking tapes. They are absolutely phenomenal and I am finally hooked to an exercise program doing it five or more times a week. Everything is getting firmer and stronger.  OK I have gotten a bit lax lately so write and encourage me to get back on track...purty please.
