Introduction A Vermont Woman: Who I am: Hi! I am a grown woman named Jane. I have always gone by the alias, "Januaryvaille" when I do any kind of writing. (I'll tell you why later). I live in a valley of the Green Mountains of Vermont which is one of the most climatically diverse places on the planet one can reside. I have an adoring husband (Larry - #2 - the keeper) with whom I share my modest home and bigger-than-my-head-can-hold-life. I have two children, The Elegant Ellen (17) (known as Fraggle) and Ben (21)(Bennyboy). I also live with Rosie the Rotweiller who is at my side at this moment; at any moment during any hour of any day. I teach middle school English and Social Studies to 48 lovely 12-14 year-olds. I ride my very own Harley Davidson motorcycle. I read on every occasion I get and I am always taking courses to give my brain more information and stimulation. I am a garden fairy on warm, summer mornings. One thing I know about myself is that no matter what I go through in life or how I get there, this remains the same: I am Jane and I am Unplain. This blog shall be about living an Unplain life. My vision for this blog: "I think therefore, I think."
