| Introduction | Although I "retired" in the spring of 2009 from full-time college teaching, I seem to have found more work than ever--just for less pay! lol DH and I are on the upward swing of our 50's and have elderly parents who keep us running from Arizona to Arkansas to Iowa. We have two sons, one a pre-med junior at the college where we work and one the director of a music/missionary school in New Zealand. Married in 1976, we've spent our years teaching, traveling, and raising our sons. John was in special ed.--autism emphasis--and now works at a college as the disabilities services provider for students with learning disabilities. |
