My Dad always had this saying..."When you're up to your butt in alligators, it's hard to remember your MAIN objective was to Drain the SWAMP."

That's pretty much been the story of my life.  In toto. I have always wanted to experience such a wide variety of what life has to offer, that I guess I grabbed every chance that came my way to experience something new... I figured it would be something I could tell my grand kids... While they were YOUNG, and still listening to grown-ups.

I guess I've about done it all... well, almost all. The safe stuff... The endorphine junkies can tell you about jumping out of perfectly good airplanes.  I won't. About bungee jumping off of bridges suspended over 10 billion feet deep of gorge, or driving cars at 8 hundred miles per hour around hairpin turns. I won't. About flying a balloon over the world's oceans so high up you need to bring your own OXYGEN in order to breathe at all... I won't.

What I will tell you is what it was like to be a woman Vietnam era Veteran.   Or an Army Air Traffic Controller, telling full bird Colonels where to go and what to do when they got there. Or, what it's like to be an MP, (It's assume the position, dirtbag, you know the routine!!).  Or, to be in sales, a social worker, a dog groomer, dog breeder, or live in a 30', 36 year old RV with 7 dogs, 1 Catalina macaw, 1 ferret, and 1 token non-cat, (she's in denial.).

Where to begin??? Hmmmmmmmmm....
