I have 3 music players on my page.
1) The red one below is praise & worship music.
2) Scroll down and on the left is "Pretty music", which is classical, piano, etc.
3) Farther down on the right is good ol' rock 'n roll like that of the 70's.

The most important thing in my life
is my friendship with Jesus.
My favorite verse is Psalm 46:10
"Be still, and know that I am God."
I am a Christian, and I volunteer as an online crisis counselor for New Hope.
New Hope is a ministry of the Crystal Cathedral, having both phone and online service for crisis intervention. We help to prevent suicides first and foremost, and provide someone to talk with for many hurting people. I spend most of my time at the computer, largely for New Hope, counseling, mentoring, writing a newsletter, etc.

I have been very happily married to Allan since 1978, and we have known each other since we were in high school in 1974. He is such a gem, I am blessed!
We have two kids, Rachel and Michael, now in their twenties. Rachel got married August 30, 2008 - welcome to the family, Brandon!
I used to teach piano, and music remains a huge part of my life. As you can tell from my red music player, I love to worship in song!
Over 10 years ago I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I am open about having it, but when I was writing the info about myself here, it never came to mind. I like to be positive, and that didn't even occur to me. I try to dwell on the good things that have come into my life in spite of or even
because of the MS. My involvement with New Hope for one, as it gave me on opportunity to minister when my outside activities became limited. Another thing is meeting my best friend. If we didn't both have MS we never would have known each other. We met online through MS Watch, and were amazed and astounded that we have so much in common. It is almost freaky, to the point where we started a list - which now has over 200 items!
I see here on the Hill that a lot of people have different health issues, so decided that I should say something about that part of my life. I can honestly say:
LIFE IS GOOD and GOD IS GOOD!
I love piano music 
...and anything chocolate! 
I like sewing
Did I mention that I like ladybugs?
