| Introduction | I live in a small mining community, and the Earth here is sinking, literally. In fact the grade school collapsed last summer from mine subsidence. I sing karaoke. I run my own karaoke show. I watch TV...sometimes. I have a couple of soaps I watch now and then, and I watch learning programs. I go mudding and camping and fishing and hiking. I like food...most of it. No seafood or fish, thank you. I study for no other reason than to learn. I have two degrees...BA in Social Sciences, M.Ed. in Advanced Curriculum and Instruction with Technology. I love dogs and birds and fish--I have a Betta named Indie and a Chihuahua named Joey. I like my computer. I abhor religion, but embrace spirituality. I think for myself. I am argumentative. I am bossy. My family means the world to me. My daughter and 4 gorgeous granddaughters are my life. I have over 10,000 songs downloaded in my laptop. I hate wrestling or any violent sport...except football. Go Vikings! I am a life time Cub fan. I don't care that they haven't had a World Series in 100 years. I am loyal. |

When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?
No, you're not being lazy. You are making a decision. Should I sleep for 10 more minutes, or get up now??
