I was a clerk typist, timekeeper, office assistant, receptionist for 14 years in the Special Education Programs Division. Washington state is very different from California! It’s green & beautiful, & we experience all four seasons. We have had snow the past 2 Christmases!! This may sound goofy, but I made snowballs & they’re saved in our freezer. I’m into saving memories whenever possible.
