I would also like to hear you play and sing but it's kind of difficult to the confines of akaQA.
Knowing you, as I do, I'm sure you are an excellent mom. (As I am. : ) )

My formal education is 45 years at Knoxville School of OOps. I majored in "have another drink" and how to "Cut Your Own Hair". My hobbies are Astro Physics, Egyptian Hyroglyphic Reading, Rocket Science, Paint By Numbers and Animal Gynocology. Don't laugh, someone gotta do it.
Been married to the same witch-a-call-it, for a long time. I keep her in the closet until Friday night when I blow her up.
I only answer questions which have to do with 'tying shoes', 'which way is up', or 'what's that smell'. There's lots more but its getting late.

It is interesting to read about you Lindilou. I often wonder what people do and where they are from... the quilt that is akaQA.
I would much rather read about other people. It's a thousand times more fun... I guess that is why you asked the question! :)

lindilou I really like this question because I like to see what life paths people have been down. What I have discovered is that every human being has an immense amount of wisdom. I believe people on this site have all been down different paths in life & tapped into their wisdom and are willing to share it with others. To me its great if you or anyone was fortunate enough to have special training, but it really in a way does not matter because we are all so unique and special. I am proud of my own accompishments which are many that have made me happy because they were goals I set out to accomplish. I will name a few. I do handwriting anaylsis and did it for a while when my department hired people at Stanford University. I went to broadcast school and have done talk shows, have a B.A. in experimental psychology and have worked with families and kids for over 20 years. I have had lot of jobs which is good for me because I get bored easily on jobs. I have a passion for justice, for all; peace in the world; happiness and growth for children & adults. I think all people are beautiful, except for a few, just kidding. I love life and others. I am really happy that I learned how to read and write. Both of those areas were very difficult for me to learn as a young kid. A big accomplishment for me, to me on a spiritual level, is that I have gained insight and patience for people and appreciate them all, except a few. A hobby I have is matchmaking. That's fun for me too. That's part of my life path that brought me to the majestic akaqa community.

You have done some interesting things!
You did handwriting analysis at Stanford! Wow.
I believe like you do that people on this site have tapped into a wisdom
that I don't understand. But they are willing to share it with others.
Just a teacher, an agony aunt to people on the web. 40 years of litigation doing my mothers court cases and a good background in medicine because I did the paperwork for my father who is a Vet, my brother who is a Vet, a sister who is a Doctor, and another sister who is an accountant. Have my own qualifications which I would rather not divulge, but the main purpose of being here, is my best qualification "I like People! and I like to help People, and I am non judgmental, And I don't take sides and I don't influence people with my own opinion, I just let them think things through given the facts. I also like to make the questioners independent of panels like anywhere, so that they do not have to come back to you again and again on the same subject. That's why I am a lousy businesswoman too, cos my students are left to migrate from under the wings of a teacher tutor. I like gardening, a renaissance type of woman. Worked with Engineers, Lawyers and Pediatricians, Doctors, and that shows I am not that young! My case rests. And I will retire tonight. Good question though!. Have a pleasant evening mulling this through! And I am an ad-libber which means I try anything once, made mistakes on marriages though so that means I have to learn too!

I,m nothing special, work in welfare (and have for over 20 years) live a fairly insulated life in a country town, but I do like to stay in touch and reading some of the answers on this forum supply me with incite and often practical help,the people here are not vindictive nor , condescending and through my own experience I have found them only too happy to help

When we all answer the same question we become a bright entity. : )
Now I will look up "entity"
I'm a mom, a wife, degree in early education, experience with crisis line, 25 years of successfully running a daycare and preschool, a degree in medical assisting and experience in doctors' office, newspaper columnist, book writer (didn't fly) but I wrote it, read a lot of health stuff, classes and then experience in counseling women in crisis.
I often think of akaQA and how when we all put our heads together we are genius. We all come at problems from our perspective. All different. Most good. I've worked other sites, a psychology board, writers site, studied Lupus when I thought I had it. I don't. Fibromyalgia. Chroni Pain. Weight loss. I've moved about 50 times. (All in California) Love music
