About Me	We are all teaching our children something... the question is WHAT? I am a 66 year old woman, mother of 4, grandmother of 11 and step/grand of 3, great-grandmother of 12, sister of a sister and brother (lost a dearly loved sister several years ago to cancer), aunt to 8, and friend to a broad assortment of folk from coast to coast. I have been married six times to a Nuc Submarine Sailor, a Homicide Detective, a History/Philosophy Professor/Jazz Musician, a Poet, an Alaskan Fisherman, and the last and dearest a tow-truck driver who died suddenly at age 50 of an aortic aneurysm in March of '02. Personally I think I have been married enough. I was born and raised in Oregon, but have traveled all across the country, and lived in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, California, Connecticut, Georgia, and Alaska. I am most recently retired from terminal care, in-home nursing with AIDS and cancer patients. Prior to that I have worked at variety of jobs over the years, processing crab, salmon, cod and herring, in ships on the Bering/Alaska (within sight of Siberia). Ad Departments for two newspapers, scheduled and monitored commercials for a cable company (bad job), dispatched ambulances, tow trucks, alarms, and worked a switchboard for an answering service. Administrator for Adult Foster Care Homes, Waitress, Bar Tender, Manuscript Typist for five books and many short stories, Secretary to a Federal concern, and Receptionist at a College, Director of a Community Center, Counselor for drug/alcohol, made computer parts on a line, and I've picked strawberries, but never cotton... darn... something I missed. lol I'm a life-long poet, and writer, presently I'm writing a book called "Life and Death at Minimum Wage", if you see it on the bookshelves, buy a copy and insure my old age... I am a Christian, I support people, not buildings. My tithe tends to feed, shelter, clothe, encourage... practical Christianity. Jesus means a great deal to me, but if people can't see this influence in my life... I'm not the one to force feed anybody into my way of thinking. If you would like to know how I came into this way of being... there are two books, both can be found .., that have charted my course. One is Henry Drummond's "The Greatest Thing in the World" and the other is "The Spirituality of Imperfection". I was raised Baptist and at one point had a five year perfect attendance pin, my family prayed together and prayer is a living part of my life. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Warning: Any person and/or institution and/or Agent and/or Agency of any governmental structure including but not limited to the United States Federal Government also using or monitoring/using this website or any of its associated websites, you do NOT have my permission to utilize any of my profile information nor any of the content contained herein including, but not limited to my photographs, and/or the comments made about my photographs or any other "art" related posts on my profile.
