That about sums up my life.  What a ride it's been! 

I am not going to bore you with details of my life, other than to say I was born in 1964 in Gimli, Manitoba, spent a majority of my younger years in Kitchener, Ontario before moving to Woolwich Township.  I am married to Ron and have a daughter, who is now out on her own and doing well.  When I am not working at one of my many faceted jobs, I have taken up painting again after 30 years.  I took my first art course at age 13, at one of the local high schools in Kitchener, Ontario, for the cost of $10.  I'm glad I kept two paintings I made from that era, to remind me how it all started.
