I originally decided to sign up when one of my sister-in-law's journal's required you be a member to post a reply.  Then I thought, what the heck, we'll see if I have anything to say that I might want other people to see.  :)  Or they might want to read.

Well, let's see.  I live in medium sized town with my husband, Larry, daughter, Cassie and our four legged children, Max, the Boxer and B.K. and A.J. the cats.  I work for the USPS as a letter carrier in a smaller town about thirty miles down the Interstate.  I have been off work for the last six months due to a knee injury I got on the job in January.  If I never have to deal with Federal Workers' Compensation again in my life it will be too soon.  I am going back to work on Monday and I am both excited and sad.  I miss my customers and will be glad to see them again, but I will also miss being at home all the time.  Although, I am really sick of watching daytime TV.  :)

Like my sis-in-law, I enjoy living in Wild, Wonderful, West Virginia.  I was born in this town and have lived a few places in my life, but always came back.  I enjoy the slower pace that we have around here.  And I like the changing of the seasons.  I know a lot of people that go south for the winter, but I have always liked the snow.  Now, if it would just snow on the grass and not the sidewalks and the streets it would be ideal.

I enjoy reading, mostly fantasy science fiction.  I love to sew and crochet.  I am trying to finish an afghan for my granddaughter before I go back to work next week.

I think that enough for a first try.  Next time I'll try to write first thing in the morning and see how my brain is working then.
