Music is '#1Crush' by Garbage

Hi! Glad you could stop by.  Come on in & take a look around, but pardon the mess, I'm always  re-arranging & adding to my little cyber-nest, (& I'm learning as I go), so  I imagine there will be a few bugs  to work out, before everything is 'exactly' right, so watch your step!

  Home & Family...

I live in a small, mountain area town, with my Airedale Q (pronounced Key).  I have a daughter, Sparkles,  who no longer lives at home.  I was divorced over 21 years ago, but have a significant other, Bert.   We'll be celebrating 19 years together on Valentine's Day 2001.   I collect Teddy Bears, Dragons, Mice,  & Rosarys, & am always looking for something new or unusual, to add to my collection(s).

At work...

I work for our county's Superintendent of Schools, in Juvenile Detention. I'm the aide in the History class.  We are a year round school at a facility that houses 125 young men, ages 13-18 years.   The boys are divided into two groups, A.M. & P.M., & are housed in 'barracks' located at opposite ends of the facility.  They go to school for half a day according to their group, & when not in school, work various jobs that contribute to their upkeep & help give them skills they can use 'on the outs'.  And there is plenty to choose from.  A great deal of what they eat comes from the huge garden, & the cows, chickens & pigs that are raised & bred,  provide meat, eggs, & milk.  They pasteurize the milk & do slaughter & butchering right on the grounds.  One of the counselors on staff is also a licensed meat inspector, so all is safe & edible!   If none of those jobs appeal to them, boys 15 & older, can request to be put in one of our R.O.P. programs, & hope to be one of the lucky 14 (for each class), chosen to participate in either the Auto Shop or Construction classes, where they begin to learn a trade.  Or, if they prefer the outdoors,  they can work grounds & help keep the place looking beautiful.   Follow me for a gorgeous pictorial tour of Camp ftprntgif Begin Tour


Here's what we do for fun, on Halloween...the boys can't go out, so we bring Halloween to them.

At play...

In my 'down' time, you will find me reading---Sci-fi/Fantasy mostly, with Anne McCaffrey, Stephen King, & Dean Koontz, being three of my favorites. Watching tapes I make while I'm at work---I'm an 'All My Children' soap fan, who has been watching since the show first began. Or, playing on my  computer, which was built 'specially for me by Bert & his brother.  Making web sites is my most favorite computer pastime.   In fact, I've made so many sites that my most recent one is designed to keep all the addresses in one convenient place.  Check out my Be Seen Pages for one stop access to all my sites (inc. message boards), as well as some beautiful sunrise~sunset pics (& matching ICQ skins), & the story of how I got my cyber-name (NOTE: Temporarily Unavailable. Host site closed & transfer to new site isn't complete. 3-17-01)
