About Me

  • I am a lousy housekeeper and decent cook
  • My mother said, “Active people have active injuries”, I think I’m just klutzy
  • I have my father’s terrific eye-hand coordination
  • I am good at parallel parking and not overly fond of driving
  • You can take the girl out of Wisconsin but you can’t take Wisconsin out of the girl
  • I love all salty snacks, books, and people you can count on
  • 90% of the time I can sing along to every lyric in a 70’s song
  • I attribute the small chip on my shoulder to birth order of middle child
  • My passion is words
  • I’ve always loved going to school so I have a master’s degree, bachelor’s degree, and certificates in psychology and inventory management
  • My perfect day would include a beach, a sunset, pizza, beer, putting a dollar in a jukebox, skeeball, a crushed penny, good stories, and laughing until my cheeks hurt
  • I have limited imagination so I shy away from science fiction except for the Star Trek episode, “The Trouble with Tribbles”
  • I don’t understand The Road Runner, Sponge Bob, or Tom and Jerry but have lifetime affection for Scooby-Doo, Velma, Shaggy, and Daphne 
  • To not unnecessarily upset myself, I avoid movies with sad endings
  • I heartily celebrate all holidays especially Christmas and the 4th of July
  • I believe most people are good
