Brief Author Bio:

I retired a year ago from a county job but will be returning to work this fall for three months. But I still consider myself retired. I am owned by two cats and just got a puppy in August. (The cats don't own her, and they've made it clear they don't want to.) I ride my bike or walk everywhere, since I don't drive and never have. And I actually love to do housework, and I hate to cook.
