Topics re-visited from my other blog, but more up to date.

In my other blog, www.livejournal.com/users/pualanijo, I will re-visit some of my topics, but put more up to date, even though I was 29 at the time and not 30 as I am today.

Family:

In my family, it consists of my parents and my two sisters and me. I am in the middle. Both of my sisters are married. One has two children.

Dad: My dad and I are alike. We are both good in math, we like trains, and we like to use the computer. Dad was born at a farm in Wisconsin. Yes, a farmhouse. He grew up farming. One of his earlier jobs is working for SOO Line. SOO Line was a train company up in Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan (but I could be wrong). That company changed its name to Wisconsin Central and now it is Canadian Central. Dad works for Whirlpool, Findlay, Ohio. That factory make dishwashers and it is the largest diswasher plant in the world. On Saturdays, dad and I would go to somewhere that have trains. I know a lot about trains due to dad.

Mom: Mom grew up in a large family. She has 3 half-brothers and one half sister. She also has 4 brothers and 3 sisters. One of her brothers is her twin. Mom and I like to go garage saling together. Trust me on this: it is fun. I get a lot finds (crafts for me). Plus, it let me get know Findlay a bit more and my navigation skills are sharper. Mom works at Great Scot in the bakery department.

Tammy: My older sister lives in Gallipolis, Ohio. I love that area, very beautiful. She has five cats and one dog. Tammy is about eight years older than I. We get along better now than in the past. She came and help us decorate this house (it badly needed it). Tammy is married to Dennis. I made a wedding sampler for her. Two years ago for Christmas, I made her a fox sampler. Trust me on this: Make someone a gift. It will be appreciated. When I went to her house, I saw the samplers that I made and this one picture of a fox that I got her (it was handmade, I got it at Craft Fair at Ghost Town). Deep down, it made me very happy to see that.

Trina: Trina is my younger sister by two to three years (I say this because when Trina was born, the next month, I turned three). Trina is married and have two children. I love my nephews. Trina was the one who gave me a beautiful silver bracelet with details of flowers on it. I like to wear it. She also gave me a real garnet ring in brass tone. That garnet is the only real stone that I have and I wear it a lot. It is plain and elegant, like me.
