Occupation: Mother, chef, author, secretary, purchasing agent, accountant, maid, and head dishwasher - you get the picture... I run my websites as well as my husband's electrical contracting office.
Bio: Married since '84 with two kids, one married daughter who gave me my two grand-angels, and a son who is still living with us after H.S. Originally from Farmington Maine, I moved to Colorado as soon as I possibly could.
Interests: Cooking, Downhill Skiing, Motorcycle riding - I ride an 1100 Honda Shadow and my husband rides a Harley Dyna Wide Glide that he WON on a 25-cent slot machine in Las Vegas in 1998... Yee-haw for Sin City!
You Might Not Guess: I started college at age 16 after skipping two grades along the way, but never went back after my first year. Instead I "took 1 year off" and moved to Vail to decide on a major. 27 years later it is obvious I majored only in the mountains.

Please note: This quiz has been moved to a new host, and can now be taken here. The new version calculates your score by itself, and tracks statistics of everyone who takes it and will display the score of anyone who bothers to register with the quiz host, "mystudiyo". I plan to create more of these as time goes on. Please let me know what you think, especially if you took the original, low-tech version, first.
P.S. If you have your own website, you can embed the quiz into your OWN page!
The trouble with square meals is that they make you round.

I bribed Matt not to whine with the promise of a trip to Ross afterwards ... so funny. A bit of male vanity has FINALLY kicked in, at almost 18...... 'bout time, is all Mom can say.
We'll be back tomorrow, so you won't have time to miss me.
