Introduction | I'm happily married to my best friend, Bear. We're both former Air Force officers; he's retired. I got out of the military when our second daughter was born, stayed home with and homeschooled our children until our youngest entered ninth grade several years ago. For four years I worked full-time as our parish Director of Religious Education. It was a ministry rather than a 'job' and didn't leave any time for my family, reading, writing and crafting. So now I am an unpaid volunteer for Him. |
Interests | Catholic spirituality, my family, Pro-Life issues, books, Pope Benedict XVI, crochet, England, history, Santa Teresa, American Civil War, travel, Germany, good movies |
Favorite Movies | LOR, Brideshead Revisited, The Jewel in the Crown, The Spitfire Grill, almost anything done by Masterpiece Theatre |
Favorite Music | Amazing Grace, Gregorian Chant, Gaelic or Irish, anything by John Michael Talbot |
Favorite Books | everything I've read by Pope Benedict XVI, Graham Greene and Dorothy L. Sayers; the Raj Quartet; almost anything by Dickens, Evelyn Waugh, C. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis or Anthony Trollope; The Moonstone; everything by Jane Austen & George Eliot |
