IAmThatStrange

Okay about me.

Now I am extremely busy, busier than than when I was working.  Now my daughter, her husband and me are creating stored food (all fruit, some veggies (we grow almost all of them), flour, sugar, spice, powder, rice, pasta and many others) to stay safe for over 30 years.  We are storing them in Mylar bags.  We are doing this because of the horrible thing that is happening and that food may drop away.  So for example I am storing 20 pounds of dried banana's, 20 pounds of rice, 10 pounds of dry blueberries and so so much more.  It is not easy to do but once done.  Yes they will last 30 years.

1.  My nickname - a long time ago I was trying to get onto forum for my job.  I tried several time to use a nickname and it always said "sorry that name exists".  I said something out loud and a co-worker said "Yeah you are that strange".  BOOM CHICKA!  Yeah I am that strange

2. I was a Costume designer many (many) years ago.  It was wonderful except for one bad thing.  I worked 10 to 12 hours every day and was not there for my daughter.  So I left that.  Can I still design and create clothing or costume, yes.

3. Then I became involved with computers.  The first job was with  CTA  as they came to protect Nebraska from the Y2K conversions of state software.  I started out as a Office Assistant as I had not one anything much with computers yet.  But in 2 years I became the tester and  Programmer Analyst.  The Company left Nebraska after the Y2K issues were fixed (and yes there were many), I then also became a web designer.

4. My last job was as a software tester.  To me it's more like playing games but the commute to the company I worked with (3 1/2 hours a day, 150 miles) was something that made me just want to leave.  I finally did.

5. So now my favorite thing is creating art, and cross stitching.
