| Introduction | I'm a former teacher who turned to homeschooling when my boys couldn't get what they needed through the public schools. I'm also Gifted Children's Outreach Coordinator for American Mensa, a Gifted Children's Coordinator and Area Coordinator for Mensa of Wisconsin, a member of the Monroe Virtual Middle School Parent Advisory Board and am an obsessive collector of WWII war relief memorabilia. Most of my time is spent trying to keep up with my kids. |
| Interests | Gifted kids, education, brain-based learning, evolutionary biology/psychology, WWII homefront (American and British), world travel (although I hate airports) and really bad puns. |
| Favorite movies | The Thomas Crown Affair, True Lies, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Rear Window (the Jimmy Stewart version), LOTR, Sean Connery or Pierce Brosnan Bond films (Roger Moore I can take or leave. Timothy Dalton sucks.) |
| Favorite music | Peggy Lee, Norah Jones, Jet, Eva Cassidy, Queen, Van Morrison, Benny Goodman, Mozart--especially his Piano Concerto #20, anything with lots of brass and percussion! |
| Favorite books | Holy Skirts (Steinke), The Birth of Venus (Dunant), A Thread of Grace (Russell), The Secret Life of Bees (Kidd),The Hobbit and LOTR (Tolkien), |
