Father, Husband and Drupal themer/developer
I live and work on my families dairy farm in Monroe Co. We are currently milking 285 Holstiens so I have plenty of work to do to keep me busy! I've lived on a farm my whole life and wouldn't want to do anything else..
Anything outdoors.
I am a high school student at holmen high school. I attempt to have a website, http://www.allenbower.com/ but the computer that was hosting it decided to crash on me. Otherwise I can't think of anything else to talk about.
Aloha! Let's see... I love to sing. That's my favorite thing to do in the whole world. Other than singing, I'm an art person. I love drawing and doing digital art and photo alterations. Photography itself is also an interest of mine... Really... I'm a generally optimistic person, and I love everyone unconditionally. But my sense of humor is quite sarcastic and sometimes (but rarely) offensive. In advance of making such comments, "I'M SORRY! I DIDN'T MEAN IT, I SWEAR!" Sale Items are non-returnable.
I think I already kinda covered interests in the About Me section.
I will get in to this a bit more later.
Fishing, Hunting, Shopping, Cars
I'm a local artist who sells glass glitter (the real kind from Germany) in 26 colors and 4 sizes, plus micro/deco beads in several unique colors and sizes, such as real looking glass bubbles! I also am a photographer, and mixed media artist. The other thing I'm known for around the area is being the Owl Lady; (www.owl-lady.com) on the radio and television, a psychic intuitive and medium.
My interests are varied and can change from week to week as shown by the unfinished projects all over my studio. I watch a lot of DIY and learn so many new techniques I just have to try them all!
I'm a stay at home mom to two boys, 5 and 3. I've lived in the Coulee Region since moving out here to go to UWL right after getting married. We originally just came here for school, but my husband found a job here and we ended up staying. I really like the area, and I think it will be a great place to raise our kids.
I've been online since using BBSs back in the 80s and 90s and found the internet around 1993. It wasn't long after that I got into building websites for fun, though I never did much with it until recently. In 2005, I found a CMS called Drupal that is just awesome. Using a CMS is 100 times better than doing sites from scratch. I've used it on a bunch of hobby sites as well as a little bit of freelance work here and there. My kids keep me pretty busy so freelance is very part time. Once they're older, I hope to be able to work from home building Drupal sites.
My main hobbies are computers and photography. I've been using computers since I was a teenager in the '80s and have been fascinated by the web since I first stumbled on it around 1994. I've putzed with web design since 1997ish but only got really serious about it a couple years ago when I was pregnant with my son and wanted to make a family page. Since then, I've been actively learning and hope to make a business of it some day.
I also really love photography, though I don't have a lot of time for it between chasing a toddler and working on sites. I started doing mostly nature but got interested in children's photography when my first son was born. Most of the photos I do are of my sons or friends' kids these days. I had toyed with the idea of making a business out of photography but I decided I really want to keep it a hobby.
