I am a mother of 4 sons and 15 grandchildren, 7 boys, 7 girls and 1 on the way. I write 225 words per minute on the stenograph machine used in courtrooms. I am studying to do closed captioning for television. I live at the foot of the Superstition Mountains near Phoenix, Arizona. I have assisted 2 authors in writing a book about the Lost Dutchman Gold mine. The book, "Spirits in the Mountain" by Bill and Mike Johnson was published Nov. '06. I am very interested in anything to do with gold panning and searching for hieroglyphs. I love to write on subjects that I feel I might have a different view or solution to.
I invented a seat cushion filled with water and air. This cushion appeared on QVC and was a big seller. This invention came about when I broke my tailbone jumping up and landing on the arm of a couch. While studying court reporting I would write sitting on a California King waterbed that had an air frame. This gave me the idea to put water into a cushion that the customer fills themselves.
