Our intrepid hostess Kelly of This Ain’t The Lyceum<\/a> has her hands a bit full, so she asked if I could host this week. My response: SURE!<\/p>\n

So, who exactly am I? Well…<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 1 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m a blogger.<\/strong> This July will mark 20 years of blogging. All but maybe 2-3 months of archives are here if you ever get bored one night and want to read them. Warning: I get a little verbose on occasion.<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 2 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am the mama of a special kiddo.<\/strong> My son is Daniel and he has a genetic abnormality called 22q duplication<\/a> (in addition to others) that manifests in autism, ADHD, developmental delays, mild\/moderate hearing loss, and a few other things.<\/p>\n

I am also the servant of a magnificent panther named Minion.<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 3 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am a $tarbux junkie.<\/strong> My local $tarbux<\/a> baristas know me so well that they start making my drink when I walk in the door if I haven’t mobile-ordered it already and me changing my milk preference is causing a great deal of shock. (They’ve re-made it a few times with apologies and expressed shock that it was supposed to be the way it was mobile-ordered.)<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 4 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am a tutor.<\/strong> I currently tutor all the Accounting and OBT classes at Skagit Valley College<\/a>. I joke that my job is to teach people how not to crash their Microsoft applications and how to love Accounting. (I was sitting next to my priest<\/a> at coffee hour one time when I said that, and he made the Sign of the Cross on me before saying, “bless you, child.”)<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 5 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am a proud Episcopalian.<\/strong> I sing in my church<\/a>‘s choir, serve as a lector, help with the Facebook and web presences, serve on the Finance Committee, and edit the Advent and Lenten devotional books.<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 6 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am a 49’ers fan.<\/strong> I root for the SeaChickens when they aren’t playing the Niners, but I am OVERJOYED that they shredded the Packers and are headed to the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

<\/a>— 7 —<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am a Giants fan.<\/strong> I gleefully root against the LA Dodgers<\/del> Losers whenever possible.<\/p>\n
