Since 1998

  

 

Welcome

I am a deaf woman with a very nice husband. I am homemaker and he is a Police Sergeant. I am retired from the Federal Aviation Administration on a disability pension.

BeeI worked in the Airspace Obstructions office in the Air Traffic Division, Great Lakes Region.

I now work at home making crafts, including Knitting, Knifty Knitter, Crochet, Tatting, different laces, doilies, and afghans. I also take good care of my husband and kitties.

I also enjoy reading and learning about computers. We have both Macs and Windows PC's. Our latest Macs have Intel chips and can also run Windows. We use a flatbed scanner and digital cameras.

I use the following programs:

I am learning how to use CS3.

When I worked at the mortgage department at the bank I used a old IBM computer printing mortgage contracts. This was about 1979 or 1980.

My husband taught me how to use a Macintosh in 1994, it was very easy to learn. No classes or anything, it just took a day or so. Macs are great! Windows are not!

I started making web pages when I was helping my husband work on his page. Most of my computer skills were learned by experience. I worked on his photographs, the page layout, and making backgrounds and wallpapers. We travel around the Midwest chasing trains, investigating highway routings, going to antique stores, and taking photos of weird stuff.

We browse the Web a lot. I look for new graphics to use on our pages, new web page ideas, and info for both our pages. I look for crafting sites, new and used books and other stuff. We correspond with a lot of people via e-Mail.

I enjoy making crafts projects at home and while traveling. I learned crafting from books, magazines and TV craft shows.

I was born in Pikeville KY, and grew up in Elkhorn City. We lived in a holler called Beaver Creek, on the Right Fork, near to where country singer Patty Loveless grew up.

I bought my husband a new monitor for his computer, and he then gave me his old one to connect to my computer. Since my computer wasn't capable of running 2 monitors I bought a new computer. I now am the proud owner of a brand new iMac 24 inch with the new Intel Duo processer. It runs Windows (Ugh!) as well as MacOS-X and allows me to have 2 monitors. As you can see from the picture, I now live inside my computer, so I can watch you all the time!

Cats

I have two Cats , Fuzzy and Booters,  Fuzzy is a Mama's boy and always hangs out with me.  Booters loves my husband best, and sleeps with him at night. 

They are good boys, not very smart, but very nice and playful.  They both help me around the house, alerting me when the doorbell rings or something happens.
