About Cathy...

I will turn 64 this June '17. Work part time at the Student Center for Oregon Health Science University, and occasionally as an 'extra' for various TV shows filmed here. I married my high school sweetheart and we have two adult daughters, who are happily married to good men.
I am a long distance walker and have completed over 25 marathons (since 1991), until I had my R. hip replaced, in 2011. I finally completed a 1/2 marathon (Oct. '14) and just as I was wondering if I could do another full marathon, I injured myself in the garden. Fast forward to Feb. '17 when I had my L. hip replaced. I will hit the trails as soon as I can, but for now it's 'mall' walking for me.
I love knitting/crocheting and spinning yarn on my 1890 Canadian Production Wheel.
I have tried many crafts and keep my mind open to learning more in different fields.
I also love reading history, especially English (Tutor)history. Wish I could figure out how to read and knit at the same time.
Now that the kids have moved out and my mother-in-law has passed on, my husband and I are not only enjoying having the house to ourselves, but also travelling (3 weeks in Hawaii in '13 was the big trip) and we have decided to spend our money on high living before it's squandered away on food and shelter.
I believe in "connections" and am looking forward to making some wonderful connections around the world through this web site.
You decide for me, what postcard is best.
Thank you.
