Linda Campbell:  

Life I still live in Michigan. I was married for almost 16 years, but have been divorced for the past 14 years. Never remarried and tend to like being single and set in my ways. I have two children a son 22 and daughter 19. I have many "adopted" children from the students I have taught over the years. They call me "mom" too and are a big part of my life. The extented family is quite large. When anyone askes how many children I have I must ask " The ones I gave birth to or the others?" My hobby for the past 13 years is being a living historian with a Federal (Northern) unit from Lansing, Michigan. We , my children too, spend time recreating the Civil War period and teaching the public about life and war during the 1860's. My hobby has allowed me to stay close to my children and even though they are grown they still reenact with me, spend time with me and even ask me to be an active participant in their lives. I am very lucky because many of my friends with children the same age have little or no connection with their sons and daughters. I also enjoy reading, theatre, concerts, music, sewing (especially sewing and researching period clothing for my hobby), scrapbooking, needle tatting and a bit of quilting. The fact is that I have many interest and little time to persue all at one time. I would love to travel especially to Europe but that is on hold now until my mom no longer depends on me. I am a member of the sandwich generation with my mom living nearby....Expand for more
