I'm in The Giant Squids 100 Club 

I am very happy to announce that I have made it into the "Giant Squids 100 Club" on Squidoo. Whoo Hoo!

This means that I have over 100 quality lenses. I actually have 400 and counting! I love creating lenses about pop culture, Zazzle, retro collectibles and how to use Squidoo.

I'm also a Squid Angel! 

Squid Angels are passionate lensmasters who spend a lot of time looking at lenses on Squidoo, and have special powers to bless great lenses with a few extra LensRank points. They're also a huge help at keeping Squidoo safe from spam.

If you think your lens is just about as good as you can make it, stop by the Angels forum and test your luck!

Rocketmoms is an invite-only gathering of the smartest women on the web, working together to make Squidoo lenses and a whole lot more. Here is a sneak peek at just a few of the lenses they're busy creating.

Me in Cleveland Snow Storm.

The early years 

That would be me fishing in Parry Sound, Canada apparently I liked to fish a lot as a kid. As for the strange sailor pants that would be my mom's doing!

My first car 

In 1987 I got a 1979 Grand Prix. It was red just like this groovy photo only mine had a lot more rust. Good thing it was red! I loved that car and reluctently parted with it in 1989. It was replaced by a 1989 Hyundai Excel. Big Mistake. Let's just say that Hyundai has much improved it's product line since 1989! Hey, at least I didn't drive a Yugo!

I'm married... 

to a really cool guy! He loves Bronco's, motorcycles and is a computer geek like me!

My lensmaster journey... 

I started Squidoo back in Feb. 2007. I saw it on CafePress and thought it looked fun. I made a few lenses and a few cents off those lenses. I started making more lenses and the cents turned into dollars and I became addicted. I love researching and have a slew off ideas floating around in my head. What a perfect outlet!

A girl geek at heart 

I would have to say that I am a self-proclaimed Girl Geek. I have worn glasses since the age of 7 and have had an obessesion for electronics from a very young age. I can remember taking apart clocks and radios when I was little to see what was inside. However seeing Star Wars in 1978 clinched my title. I was way more interested in Wookies and X-Wing fighters then dolls and dancing much to my mother's chagrin. So there you have it I'm a Geek!

Whoo Hoo! I made "Lens of the Day" on 2 Lenses!

OMG! I was totally into Star Wars rather than makeup etc when I was a teenager too!! I collected the figures like mad, my most prized possession was no shiny handbag or designer lipstick, but a Blue Snaggletooth!!! Lol! Great lens, loving checking out all your RocketMoms lenses as a mum to be myself! :o)
