Hi Carolyn!
Isn't this amazing!!?? I just joined this weekend, thrilled to have found this site.
I, too breezed through your info and checked out your web site. This is not the first time I've said this, but it feels as though I was walking through a forest, lonely, and then turned a corner to find a party going on! We have some common interest, my background is in teaching as well. Can you tell me more about your Arthritis class?
An welcome, too...hehe.
