I'm retired and live in a state of amiable clutter with my grown daughter and one grandson in Fairview, North Carolina. Dollmaker, beader, occasional paper artist, constant reader, cat herder/dog wrangler, collector of fibers/beads and just stuff-I-like, obsessive knitter . . . too many books/magazines, lots of music. Amble rather than stride. Collector of all sorts of oddments. Solitary by nature, but can (and have been known to) talk or write for hours on end.
