Who am I? I am a middle child of three. I grew up in a middle-class family, and have lived in the same town all my life.
What I have been told, and what I remember is that I was a rather curious, spunky, and mischievous child. I don’t remember ever being bored with life during my very young years. I was always out there looking for fun and excitement much to my parent’s dismay.
One of my first memories was when I was about four or five, we lived in the upstairs of an apartment house close to downtown. My mom had to go to the basement to do laundry. The other tenant’s son who lived downstairs from us had rabbits which he kept in the basement. Well, you got it, they stunk. My mom would complain to me because I was usually with her as not to get into trouble, and she would complain that she didn’t appreciate those rabbits being down there. So, being the cooperative child that I was, when no one was around I went down to the basement and let them all out. I don’t remember how many there were, but it seemed to be excessive. I must have had a reputation because while sitting on the steps out front of the house with one of my friends, the owner of the rabbits, sought me out and scared the crap out of me. For some reason, he just knew that I had to be responsible for this. Imagine that.

I am an onion. Well, you know, not a REAL onion, I’m just talking metaphorically here.
Once upon a time in a small city in Mid-Central Wisconsin, there lived a family with three daughters. The youngest daughter was born prematurely and weighed only three pounds. When she came home from the hospital two months later, her two sisters asked if they had to keep her? They were so hoping for a brother. 
To start with, my most important accomplishment is being the mom to 3 amazing adult children. Soon it will be 4 as one of them is now engaged to be married! 
My other hobbies include crafts, my dogs, and spending time with my family. I’ve also become a cat person which totally shocks me! Recently, my oldest brought home 2 little black cats and they have stolen my heart! I LOVE to organize and plan and especially love it when I’m recognized for things I’ve done. If you ever want to discuss The Five Love Languages, I’m the one! It’s my favorite book. Lastly – when I’m not working on my computers, chances are I’ll be sleeping. I have to say, my favorite thing to do of all time is snuggling on the sofa, binge watching my latest favorite show and snuggling with the kitties!
I live in my hometown and stay sane through gardening. Although weeds were winning the battle when I was teaching, I have gotten a second wind and am making a solid comeback! I love to read books that give me something to talk about or think about. I dream of projects that I want to do. My house is in a relative state of chaos battling with occasional periods of calm and organization.
