More about me: Oh, I was hoping this would be a questionnaire! But no, I have to actually give this some thought and tell you whatever I want to.

I'm 53. I desparately want to be slender.....but seem to lack the dedication or determination to get there. Still looking for that magic solution. I could just describe myself as "undertall" since I'm only 5'3".

I collect short novels about the CampFire Girls. A lot of these were written in the early 1900's (1907-1922) and then some more about 1930 or so.

I have studied Spanish since 9th grade and am busy getting certified as an interpreter. Should only be another few months of school! I'm looking forward to my new career.

As I child I hungered for a relationship with the Lord and am continuing to learn, grow, worship and serve. I see lack of service as one of the problems in Christianity today. (Including my not doing enough for others.)

I love to read -- mostly science fiction/fantasy or historical novels. Elizabeth Peters and Anne McCaffrey are two of my favorite authors.

Well, surely that's enough about me to start with.
