About me
I'm over the hill and living large in Minnesota. Self-employed for 16 years, I provide creative services to businesses and individuals. I'm married to a tool and die guy with a golfing obsession, and also share my abode with two cats and a basset hound. My three grown daughters live in Kansas and Texas. They and my five stepchildren have blessed us with 21 grandkids. My interests (and obsessions) include Web design, Mac computers, creative writing, scrapbooking, stamping, paper crafts, drawing, and reading.
Why I use Clipmarks
I'm an information junkie! When I bought my new Mac Pro Powerbook, the technicians who copied the data from my old computer to the new said I had the largest number of bookmarks they'd ever seen. When I was young, I was called curious; as an old lady, I'm nosy! Not only do I love to collect information, but I also like to share it, so I was delighted when I discovered Clipmarks.

 I've noticed that color combinations that clash are usually those that differ too much in tint or shade.

 Even eye color can be affected this way. My granddaughter's eyes usually appear blue, but when she wears red, they're emerald green.

 I would add one to the list, especially for elderly fathers: interview him about his life. The only reason I know anything about my dad's formative years was because we chatted while sitting in the doctor' office and during his transfusions. I just wish I had asked him more questions.
