    About me

     

         I grew up on a farm in Ohio ... middle class family.

         I married young, while still in college and had two children ... divorced after 10 years and remained single for 22  years.

             Then I met that " perfect someone" and have been happily married for 16 years.

         We have (between us) 5 children, 13 grandchildren and a great grandchild on the way!

         I am now retired and really enjoying every minute of it. We still have a small home business dealing with computer education and we are fortunate that we are both in excellent health and have the means to travel often.

         I believe that keeping fit is so very important and make every effort to eat a healthy, low fat diet and exercise every single day.  So far this has paid off well!

       I tend to be a perfectionist ... not a good thing and I have been struggling all my adult life to overcome this. I seem to be making some progress in this area, but still much to do.

         Life is good!!
