Who am I? I have a happy little existence with my husband, my large yellow lab & my two kittens. My dog is 100 lbs of bouncy joy. My male cat is addicted to "Greenies", catnip & thinks he's a dog. My female cat looks like a sweet housecat, but is a serial killer.
I took up fencing after I turned 40 & wanted to find a sport that would keep me active and fit into my old age.
I spend my time coaching beginners, training, & working at our vintage autosound business.
Note: Some of my blog entries are only available to my "Blog Buddies". They are either private in nature or about coaching. I make my coaching entries private becuase public entries can be read by the general public. While I never use names, the descriptions of the events can reveal information and I want to respect the privacy of my students. If you would like to be on my list, please PM me and I will add you.

I wore out the batteries playing with it my first night. I like the scheduler in it. Put in all my classes with alarms to remind me to pack my car. Took pictures of all my animals. Learned all the functions and decided there was a whole bunch of useless stuff. I like learning new software.
For some reason my husband was surprised that I had so much fun playing with it the first night. For god sakes I read books and books on buying homes and mortgages before we got a house... When I get a car, the first thing I do is read the manual. Why would he expect anything different?
One snag... The manual told me how to turn on the phone and shut off the phone. He tried calling me yesterday. I had my phone with me. Shut off in my purse. Apparently... you need it "on" to ring. Stupid manual...
