(in other words, still trying to decide what to be when I grow up!)

Right now the majority of my time is spent taking care of my older brother, Bradley B. Russell, as well as two horses, a dog, a cat. in addition to church and volunteer work.

California, Michigan, Utah, Kansas, West Germany, Oregon, Hawaii, Maryland and now Arizona

Bradley Bruce Russell 1969 - not in very good health and currently living with us.

Hazy. Limited. Not especially good. Best memories of my high school years were down at the SP City Stables with my horse, Sherman.

Palominas Community Organization (formed mainly to keep rural zoning areas). The Najale Admiration Club. Anarchists United. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Pinterest.

Joined LDS Church in 1976. Married in 1978. Military Spouse for twenty years. Lived in Hawaii for six years (tough job, but someone has to do it). Husband in the Middle East for both Gulf Wars and spent another year in Iraq. Own two horses and keep them right in my backyard - I love rural Arizona.

Najale and Sweets (my horses). Reading, Writing. Publishing. Health Education. Special Education Counseling. Being a grandmother. Zen. Chocolate. Form Design. Talking to my oldest daughter. Pizza.

Too many to list.

Harold and Maude. Pride and Prejudice. Zippy. God and Mr. Gomez. NCIS. The Office. Lost. Firefly. A Beautiful Mind. Castle. Modern Family. BBC Sherlock. Downton Abbey.

Teaching the adult Sunday School in my church to people who know the scriptures FAR better than myself - it's a lesson in humility.

Escaping every possible chance to visit my grandchildren - we just went to Universal Studios (and Harry Potter World) in Orlando. Being a grandparent is simply the BEST.
