Well, I’m a 60-something Canadian woman going through a post-midlife adjustment phase.  I’ve had a lot of health issues related (and unrelated) to my “morbid obesity”.  I’m losing weight but have to work really hard at it and I don’t like having to work hard at anything!

I am married to an amazing man, Norm, and we have two incredible daughters, Shauna and Leanne.  I live in Langford, part of the Greater Victoria area.  I am a Navy Brat and have travelled all over Canada and lived on both coasts and way up north, Inuvik.

I am a teacher at the Saanich Adult Education Centre where I am honoured to work with First Nations adults coming back to upgrade their education.  I have been there for over 18 years now and can honestly say I believe I have learned more that I have ever taught.

I started my blog on the prompting of a person I met at a First Nations special education workshop and it is one of the best things I have done for myself in years.

If you have any questions or comments, I would love to hear them.  Thanks for listening.  ;D
