Did you want to become a fireman or actor or whatever. Did you end up becoming what you wished for when you were young? I wanted to see the world...... I spent years with temp jobs, permanent jobs, travel, working with civil rights group.....lived in many places...volunteering in so many areas always exploring but in my third decade I settled down......went to school and became a nurse...we got 4 weeks vacation and after twenty years got 5 so my dreams of traveling became a reality. Retired now.

My parents loved Broadway. They took me at an early age. My first 3 shows were The Music Man, Bye Bye Birdie, and The Sound Of Music. I was hooked! In 3rd grade we were asked to write a What You Want To Be Wen You Grow Up composition. I wrote I wanted to be a Choreographer. I spelled it wrong, but when asked by the teacher, I knew what it was! I also grew up to be one!
