I made the Varsity basketball team as a freshman. I averaged 25 points a game. I played for the first softball team at my high school. I once pitched a shut out. I graduated college with a degree in computers with a 4.0. I helped raise my twin sisters from the age of 4. I knew how to burp, feed, change, and bathe them. My mother didn't have anyone else to help. I love to travel. I have been to Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan. etc......

You guys will laugh at me if I tell you I give the local girl scout troop cooking and mechanical aptitude classes. Every one of them I've known since they were born. I ride motorcycle with all their parents. I'm so proud of all of them. They are all straight A students. Nothing to laugh at... this has to bring you much joy

I never realized there are climbers who collect 14,000 footers that they've climbed to the summit. I have 4. THAT is incredibly cool. Ditto that!!!! ....our group was going to do mount rainier in a few weeks. But as many people that have died, been injured, or had to be rescued this spring and summer- well we abide the omen and said- "No not this year". We did mount evans last august. And I did kaibob in grand canyon until forest rangers said "Quit it or we will arrest you!" I had pictures on here for months and finally took em off.

I have done exactly two things in my life that I am very proud of I did most of the work raising my daughter, until circumstances beyond my control stopped me from doing so And I failed to gain enough credits to graduate High School with my class, so I went back and got my diploma a year later.

Just didn't know that I wouldn't be able to get more time because of her mother.

I escaped the big city ( Seattle) found a small beach town, where life is at a slower pace.

Are you and your sister identical? We are fraternal, 12 hours apart..even have different birthdays! My mom told me I used to pitch mashed potatoes across the room from my high chair at my twin sister....my mom deserves a medal!!
