My given name is Joanne, but one of the residents where I work couldn't pronounce it very well, so one of the staff asked her, "Can you say "Jojo?' Of course, it came out clear as a bell and stuck. I smile now anytime anyone calls me Jojo because it is a fond rememberance of her. 47 is my birth year. (Okay...now you know...I've dated myself!)

Now that I would love to see pictures of... My name should be self explanatory - Except for work - I'm usually running late. I have to admit not so much any more - but for years the make-up and hair did me in. Now I'm older and simply do less...
