Been there, done many things, rebuilt Johnson Fishing Reels, Helped build Caterpillar tractors, Worked on the Tomahawk Cruise Missile, currently working in a quilt shop. Grew up with my family owning a theater. The list goes on but don't want to bore anyone. My main job now is to keep breathing and quilting to my hearts content when not working at the quilt shop.

Nothing as exciting as a lot of you folks, but mainly secretarial for Federal and State governments, office manager for a small computer sales/service company and a non-profit organization. Currently (after moving to TN), working at one of the local churces part-time doing whatever they need me to do.
