I saw that you were in a one-woman show, Dream It and Achieve It. So can you tell me like the role that having fun outside of your work life has played in your life?
Absolutely. Well, I love to sing. In fact, my undergraduate degree is in vocal music, but I've since lost my voice in the past, maybe like 2 years or so. My voice has gone away. So I still enjoy music though, very, very much. And I love opera. I love Broadway. I love the symphony. And we have a really good symphony orchestra down here in Punta Gorda. And so I love music and the arts, but I also love reading. When I go on vacation for several weeks, usually I'll plow through, you know, dozens of books, and I love that. Also, we're building a new home and we're closing this week, hopefully. So that will be fun to be in the midst of creating my new Florida residence. So that'll be fun. Lots of other interests. I've just learned how to play mahjong, so who knows what's next. Oh, I've started painting.
