What have you been up to for the last 40 years?

I've had an eclectic work history which has included being a realtor, a dog groomer, a house cleaner, a domestic goddess, a school secretary, a background actor, a film/video crewperson, and am currently a personal secretary to a rather brilliant venture capitalist.

I love my life and am never bored. My husband and I share a love of working in the garden, enjoying friends, traveling and watching/helping our sons grow into two fine young men.

Our oldest son, Paul Jr. graduated from UCSB and still lives and works in Santa Barbara. (Great place to visit..wtg, Paul!) Our other son lives at home, works part-time at a high performance auto shop in San Carlos and attends Foothill CC. Both boys and their father enjoy working on/driving our two classic muscle cars, a 69 Chevy Malibu and a 68 Camaro.

We look forward to retirement in the next few years. I can't wait to have grandchildren, too... (none on the immediate horizon, though) wah..
