I’m a retired news writer/editor and elementary school teacher, and the mother of three adult children. I was born in Virginia, moved to Arkansas several years ago. I’m a reader, writer, amateur musician, budding cellist, knitter, and am about to jump into drawing and painting. I was very active in amateur theater, and would love to get back to it. Politically, I’m quite liberal. I’ve been to Ireland twice, and loved it. I hope to go again in the future. Also hope to visit Scotland, Wales, and England.
