Recently returned to home state of Iowa after living & working in North Carolina for 6 years. My husband and I bought a 1900s farmhouse on 6 acres, where we are raising our two boys + dogs & cats. I'm working from home (CAD technical support) for my former employer and will start Textiles & Clothing Graduate school at ISU soon. In my free time I dabble in web design, knit/crochet and sewing... but I waste the majority of it surfing! Catch me as madam0wl at livejournal too.
