environmentalist hippie, with strong political thoughts, and a natural curiousiy about life.  Enjoying being 40 something.  Interesting mix of old fashion mid west values and new age thinking. Trying hard to figure out how to be a mom to adult children and living to live with hubby with almost no kids around.  eeeks.  Something we have never done.  I've always focused be a daughter, wife and mom.  Now to figure out how I am without freaking everyone else around me out.
