My Bio


Hello, Let me introduce myself, my name is Marcia Goodman I reside in Warsaw, Indiana where I have lived for the past 13 years not far from the small town of Milford, Indiana where grew up. I am the eldest of three children; I graduated from Wawasee High School in the 1984, married my husband, Brian in 1986 and have three children of my own Travis who is 17, Ethan who is 12 and Morgan who is now 5.

As you know with children come extra activities so our family is very involved in the 4-H program, soccer both school and travel leagues, track, basketball, music and now we are just starting two new ventures with my youngest, dance and horse and pony, as if I have a lot of time on my hands.

I myself am in my second year of college I am either going for a Nursing or Radiology degree I have not quite decided. I also work at the IPFW Warsaw campus office on the work study program and do some catering and baking on the side to help with the household expenses. I do carry in dinners for the entertainment that comes to the Wagon Wheel Theater which I have a lot of fun doing and have the opportunity to meet some very nice people.

We have a small 12 acre farm which allows us to raise some livestock for the boy’s 4-H projects and have many pets. At this time we have a pony, 5 head of cattle, 2 sheep, 2 dogs, 9 cats, 1 hamster and 2 fish and this list is ever changing because a week ago you could have added 2 goats and 2 more sheep to the list. Check back next week for any updates.

Being in the country also lets me do some of the hobbies I enjoy such as gardening, canning, wildlife watching and photography. Some of the other things I enjoy to do are crossword puzzles, reading, listening to music watching movies and entertaining friends and family.

Some of my favorite authors are Patricia Cornwell and Stephen King. I also enjoy music immensely and have a long list of favorites, to list a few Styx, Journey, Triumph, REO, Nickleback, Damn Yankees, Phil Vassar, Keith Urban are on the top of the list as with many others. TV shows I enjoy are House, all the CSI, Ghost Whisperer, Supernatural, ER and Bones, Do you see any similarities?

Lovely blog Marcia - you have so many interests; you could do a radiology paper, or you could do a cross-over paper with J210 on photography.

Your lifestyle in the country sounds really peaceful. You might tell me otherwise with three children cause I know how chaotic life can be with just one. I'm sure you have lots of events to cover with all of them let alone trying to accomplish your own. I'm glad to know I'm not the only mom here. I've read about a few moms in this class actually.
