bits and pieces

By birth I am Irish Catholic. By profession I am a museum curator. I am thankful to be married to a lovely husband who is a darn good police officer; I am mother to quite an eccentric ~and cute~ nine year old along with two hyper jack russells; I own quite an extensive library of books and records; collect teapots and nautical items. I possess naturally green eyes and red hair. Also an obsessive clean freak, proverbial spelling geek, a memory that stands on it's own devices. I am also host to a very rare immunune deficiency disease, which enjoys reeking havoc now and again.
