CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Well, I am of Acadian French-Canadian ancestry. French is my mother language, but, I do not speak it fluently. I have been studying the language for three years and can read and write it better then speaking. I am very healthy, I love cooking, baking everything from scratch and learning new recipes and cooking with others. My children and my grand-children are the most important people in my life.

PHILOSOPHY

To do my part, as best as I can, to take care of the Earth and respect all the creatures on it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies that have good actors and actresses even if they are unknown. I love the french movies a lot: The Artist, Les Visiteurs, The Chorus, to name a few. Music is very ecletic; the blues, french music, cajon, classical, the older country music, like Jimmie Rodgers, Hank Williams,some harmonica and fiddle music and definitly, accordian music. Also, some spanish music and others. I also love reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having children

Teach, Learn, Share

I taught English in Tijuana, Mexico at the ABC Periodico
in the 70's. In the late 80's I taught Kindergarten and later, started a business and sold vintage clothing. The instrument that I play a little, is the guitar. The things I would like to be better in, is learning the french language, be more knowledgeable about plants and herbs, and art.
