About Me
I am a wife and mother of two kids in college. I was a stay-at-home-mom, preferring to raise my two kids at the expense of my career, which I eventually returned to, but with no seniority, suffered a lay-off this year. As much as I love teaching, especially art, and would love to be teaching right now, I wouldn't have changed a thing for the sake of a career. It was the coolest ride; it was absolutely the best time of my life. And now I have two free-thinkers who are a delight to be with and amaze me every day.

Favorite Quotes
"Would you be willing for one chance, just one chance, to tell our enemies that they may take our lives but they'll never take our freedom." Mel Gibson as William Wallace, Braveheart
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!” Samuel Adams
