One-Line Bio. One line, huh? Well . . . I'm a registered nurse with a communication degree who loves to write and who is crazy about her daughters. Whew . . . how was that? What? Too long? Do it again? No, I think it was OK? What? Huh?
Interests: My saxophone and piano, my dick van dyke show on dvd (all five seasons), my ski boots, my laptop . . . life would be dull for me without: my camera, my love for reading, my desire to write words (too many sometimes), my saladmaster cookware, and my family.
