Hi all you Gin Fever Fanatics!  #Smoocher Liana, here!  Just to give you a bit of an idea of what makes me tick…I have been slingin’ these ole Gin Trnys for a lotta years now….stopped countin'...lol...and love every minute of it!  Well, MOST every one anyway!  <EG>

I have been married to a WONDERFUL man for over 30 years who takes REAL good care of me!  He cooks GREAT meals (ask anyone who knows me)….all from scratch, I might add; shops for the groceries (how could I do it when he does most of the cooking?  Right? Heeheehee); does the wash; and got me a cleaning person YEARS ago….when he figured out that I was on the go so much, I didn’t have TIME to do it!  So, that is how I get to have a second home with you guys!  #smooches 

We have had MANY pets over the years……most of which were kittens who strayed into our lives or were left on our doorstep.  The vet LOVES us and fondly refers to us as “his cat couple”!  At the moment, we have 3, Froggy (don’t ask!!!  I KNOW what you are thinking!  <GRIN>  “Daddy” named her!), and the two other younger ones, Elmo (named by my grandson, Jakie), and Sarah, who are brother and sister.  The two younger ones are driving poor Froggy half NUTZ...which is kinda justified after she bugged the livin' daylights outta the two previous "Billet" cats!

I have been teaching elementary kids for…hmmmm….let’s see…this year is # 36!  No, don’t start counting…let’s just say I already hit another BIG one, so I have stopped counting since then.  I have taught 1^st, 2^nd, and 3^rd grades and have also taught ‘puter skills grades 1 ~ 6.  We just bought a condominium twelve years ago, so I won’t be retiring anytime soon! 

We have a son and a stepdaughter and three wonderful grandchildren ~ Darren (11), Ashley (9), and Jakie (7).  They all live real close so we get to see them LOTS!  When I am not here with you, I am usually with them or doing things at school to help try to educate our young people. 

Many #smooches to all!  Keep on Ginnin’!!!
