Introduction	First and foremost, I'm a Mom. I've had the best job in the world raising three incredible, loving, supportive, and entertaining kids who are now adults and bless me every day with their love. I'm also a Grandma to a little dickens of a boy who brings happiness to everyone he meets. In my "spare time", I've spent the last 20 years working for Plaid Enterprises, as a craft project designer. Working with Plaid's numerous product lines, I created projects for packaging, trade shows, internet, publishing, social media, advertising, and sales presentations. I've been blessed to work with some of the most creative, productive, and wonderful people I've ever known. I'm a One Stroke Certified Instructor, both Levels 1 and 2, and had the unique opportunity to work closely with Donna Dewberry, who I love and respect very much. Now, I've reconnected with my High School sweetheart and we're living a dream life, back home, where I started, in California. Finding him, and falling in love again, has been nothing short of a true miracle in my life. And with his support and love, I can do anything. This is our journey, and it's just the beginning...
