Thank you for interviewing with me! Your answers have been great so far! Did you use a lot of social media before you found steem? How did you end up hearing about steemit and making an account?

I've been using Facebook for a long time - about 13 years, I think.
Honestly, I can't remember how I heard about Steemit. (It might have been a post on Facebook, but I just don't remember.) But I spent a few hours learning about it and then signed up. My account was approved on Christmas Eve Eve and I just had to start! (The rest is history, as they say...)

A platform where I could blog and potentially earn was a great idea - and something I'd been looking for. I have tried standard blogs before, but could never keep them up. Combining it with social media was a brilliant idea!

I like your answer! I used to pay to blog, and had to learn so much about setting up websites....and its not even clear to me if 5 people ever read anything I wrote....

The rest is history! What do you hope the history books will say about you?

I can hand-code HTML, I could do my own flashy website if I wanted, but that's not enjoyable to me anymore and hosting is a problem now. You used to be able to do it for free and code your own site, but that's getting harder and harder. Now, HTML is more functional for me - my son carries it forward now. (I've been unsuccessful thus far in getting him on Steem.)

History books? I don't know that I want to be in one, lol. I'd like it if my books were somehow mentioned, but I'm just an ordinary person in most ways - not history material, really. Now, in some family history book for my descendants - that would be cool. Maybe an autobiography for the collection as well. I like to think that I've learned a lot in this life and could benefit my great-grandchildren - maybe help them avoid a lot of life confusion by sharing my philosophies with them. (and no, that's not an easy - or short - question to answer!)

I do have a couple of sayings that I use:
"Normal is boring."
"Sanity is over-rated."
"Everyone sees a different rainbow." (Scientifically true. I haven't said that one in a long time though.)
