So, with 10 posts, I'm supposed to introduce myself...

I live in Massachusetts, 40 miles NW of Boston, near the NH border.

I'm female, early 50s, married, mother of two boys and one step boy. Two grown and out of the house and one teen still at home. I've worked in IT for most of my career, but have previously been a veterinary technician and a horseback riding instructor. My spare time is spent with dogs, horses and my small orchard of 40 apple trees.

I've been registered "unenrolled" here in Mass forever, but usually vote Democrat. My undergrad degree is in Political Science and graduate degree is an MBA. Husband is an electrical engineer, former farm boy and Navy brat from the Midwest.

I hope you'll have some good times here. Right now, the primary season is in full swing and is crazy, but once we have a nominee, things should settle down a lot.

I am envious of having real apples to eat.
We can't grow them this far south successfully.
