Welcome
to my website. And, in case you didn't know or this is your first time
here, this is the webpage of Cathleen or Michelle, depending on how you
know me as. (That's me over there on the left at the Grand Canyon.)
This particular page, which I have dubbed the "Main Page" is actually the way you will get to the other parts of the website. It changes as I see fit and depending on what I feel it should look like and contain on any given day. I will try to keep it somewhat consistent so, if you are a frequent visitor, you don't get too confused. In and of itself, it is not difficult to move about the website. Below are the main sections, each under its own heading (complete with picture! oh my!) and a short blurb about that section. Most of the content of my website can be found under the My Travels section.
My News
No new news. Just work and preparing for the holidays at this time. I am also undertaking a cleanup of sorts. I am scanning in lots of old papers so I can actually throw them away! And going through my many books to determine which ones I want to keep so I can actually get rid of some of them! And cleaning out/re-organizing the closets. Not sure why I am in the mood to do this right now but I am going to go with it.
My Cats
I have 3 at this writing - Ethan, Lucy, and Noelle (that's her over on
the left). They are alternating between adorable and aggravating. As I
write this, the 2 girls are asleep in my office with me and Ethan is sleeping
right outside the office. Sleeping is a favorite occupation of theirs.
Better than some other things they could be doing.
My Travels
I
do like to travel about. You get to see a lot of spectacular things, some
man-made but some only mother nature could make. You get to do a lot of
things you normally don't get to do in everyday life; at least things
I don't get to do in my everyday life. And there are a lot of interesting
people out there.
I have traveled a lot in the US - been to every state but 2 (those 4 being Arkansas and North Dakota). I have also traveled to Europe, China, Central America, and Indonesia, and had a brief visit to Puerto Rico. Lately my travels have been confined to areas I can reach by car and return home within a week or two, ie the Western United States, Canada, and Mexico. And I have discovered that there is a lot of wonderful things to see in those areas.
My trips for 2008 are complete, and I am currently looking forward to 2009. I am thinking of taking a 2-week trip out to Mount Rushmore which would include some additional stops in Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, Colorado, and Utah. I may also take a quick weekend trip up to Yosemite in the Spring so I can actually see water in the waterfalls.
My Family
This section is about my family. My family is probably no different from anyone else's family. Except that they are mine, which makes them alternatively amusing and aggravating to ME. (I probably do the same to them, so we are even.)
