Many Hats

My husband Spiff and I both grew up in the Mojave Desert and both joined the LDS church when we were in high school. We met at the end of our senior year, but it took both of us going to BYU and serving missions to Japan before we actually had enough in common to get married. We grew up in towns where NASA was the local religion. He occasionally looks deep into my eyes and says, “I had to marry you. You’re the only one who truly understands about the US space program.”

I was going to be an astronaut when I grew up but instead became:

    • a speech-language pathologist

    • a mother of three incredibly energetic and verbal children   

    • a novelist

    • the chief designer of the family backyard railway

Life around here is a constant exercise in juggling hats.

I like to sew, garden, and read and would rather go visiting than traveling. In Japan, I vowed to eat whatever anyone put in front of me; and I did: raw squid, rotten bean paste (natto), octopus tentacles. Everything except onions. Onions are the same on both sides of the ocean.

Have a good time in my corner of the Web, and drop me an email!

Blessings!
