About Me
About Me
I am a teacher in a Christian school, so my faith is very important to me.
I am accident prone, of legendary status. Talking to me via the computer should be relatively safe for you. However, I make no promises.
Vending machines love me. They never cheat me, many times give me extra goodies and money. So, I'm a very good person to have on road trips. If you don't mind me bringing Priscilla , aka as the Velcro Mini-Schnauzer, along. Her manners are excellent. My cat Sammykitty is content to stay home and be a good Watchcat and Pest Control Specialist.

There is no limit to the amount of good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit.- Anon.
"Draw nigh unto to God and He will draw nigh unto you." "It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning, great is thy faithfulness." Smooth seas do not a skillful sailor make.
