Reading, Sewing, Web site designing, and spending time with family.

Enjoy reading materials that are not associated with any areas of my expertise. For example working on completing a certificate program in civil engineering for contractors.

In my spare time spend time creating web site for friends in their small businesses.

As for family, enjoy spending time with them and watching them being productive adults and my granddaughter being a child.
