11 Random Facts About Myself
- I love jazz.
- I’ve played lacrosse since I was about 12 years old. I still play lacrosse at 55.
- I started painting in my 50’s using oils, acrylics and watercolor.
- I want to learn how to play guitar, but I can’t seem to get past my music teachers comment “you are my most dedicated student who learned so little” Yes, I know better and it is my retirement gift to myself in a few years I WILL LEARN TO PLAY.
- I have a progressive eye disease called keratoconus ,but I don’t let that stop me in any way.
- I met and fell in love with my husband at a Halloween Maritime reunion party . I was a rainbow, he was a hunter carrying around a duck.
- I used to play hockey, ringette, basketball, volleyball, and baseball among others .
- Was athlete of the year in junior high… I love sports. Wanted to be a PE teacher at one time.
- I love the ocean, but I live inland.
