Technologist in Blood Banking
I enjoy spending time in my vegetable and flower gardens during the spring and summer. I enjoy canning the produce and giving it to my children for their families. My granddaughter, now age 2, has become my number one gardening assistant. Simple things like these are where I am able to find time to relax. A co-worker once called it my dirt therapy.
