BACKGROUND

I married my husband when he came home on leave from boot-camp and was on his way to Germany. It would be a three year stint with the United States Air Force so we married while he was home on leave.

After being married for only a week, my husband had to leave me home until we saved enough money to buy my ticket for Germany. The military did not recognize enlisted men’s wives in those days, so I worked two jobs to earn enough money to join him. Our first child was born overseas in a military hospital.

Today, my husband and I have been married for more than 43 years. We have four adult children and fifteen wonderful grandchildren. I enjoy playing games with the grandkids, reading with them, and doing puzzles.

Until recently, I was teaching children (ages 16 to 17) in Sunday School. Actually, I have been teaching in the church for almost forty years. I have taught adults and children (ages 3 to 18). I love the children I teach, as if he or she are my very own! As you might guess, I take my responsibility as a teacher seriously.

Basically, I am a congenial person and enjoy interacting with people. I especially enjoy being around positive-minded people who are happy and love life.

Feeling blessed, I have a strong desire to help those in need of what I have if I can. I try to look past the outside facade of people and see the person inside. The core of the person is who I learn to appreciate and love.

I was raised on a farm in Idaho. I learned the value of working by helping my father with chores. One chore that I fondly remember is, at five or six years old, my father asked me to help by driving a flat bed truck down rows while he tossed on bales of hay. My job was to keep the truck straight in a row and then turn it into the next row. Of course, now I realize that my father had put the truck in low gear so all I had to do was turn the wheel as needed.

My husband and I moved around a lot our first twenty years of marriage, partly because of his military stints and later for the jobs he took. Moves we've made the past ten years have been mostly for jobs that put us closer to our children and grandchildren.

We've lived in Germany, Idaho, California, Utah, Oregon, Indiana, and now Texas. Together, we visited Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Washington state, Iowa, Illinois, Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, New Mexico, Arizona, and Nevada.

On my way to Germany, I was able to spend some time in Boston, West Virginia, and Washington D.C and visit historical sites. It was a thrill to see our nation's capitol and be where so much of our county's history took place. My uncle worked in the Pentagon so he took me around to meet people. One of the people I remember meeting was the Secretary of Defense and other officials. I also saw the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Hall of Congress, the Library, and the Treasury.

We enjoy traveling to places around the world and seeing the beautiful of this nation. Via the military, my husband has visited the Philippines, Japan, Spain, Guam, and Hawaii. I told him he could go anywhere in the world without me but Hawaii. When his orders changed from Guam to Hawaii, he called to to tell me about it. He said, "My orders changed, I have to go to Hawaii." I jokingly responded, "Have to go? Oh darn! I’m sure that will be hard on you!"

HOBBIES

In short, my hobbies are crocheting, oil painting, reading uplifting and self-improvement books, and writing. Reading good books opened my mind to a world that I did not know existed. I am thankful for the ILD (International Leadership Development) business organization that encouraged me to read. I am also thankful that I am able to help people through writing my own books and blog postings.
