I am a genetics grad student at Texas A&M Univ. I teach freshmen biology Monday through Wednesday and I do research for the rest of the week.

Hubby is a professional TREK bicycle representative (salesman). He works full time and he is still going to get University and Foundation honors when he graduate. Unlike me, he is only an undergrad since he is doing double-major. I am very proud of him.

Let's see -- For 32 years I was a university administrator, now retired.

Then -- Agreed to temporarily manage a small non-profit social services corporation that was experiencing difficulties. Were they ever! Falsified books, IRS fraud, other minor problems.

Finally -- After 4 years I was able to pass that tar baby along, and currently I go in two mornings a week to deal with the accounts, which is why my forum name is

Bookie

Well, Bookie, you certainly lived for excitement there for awhile while managing that small non-profit social services corp. Bet you were glad to pass that puppy along!
