WunderWebs

My website and blog design studio providing eye-catching, high-quality websites for small businesses since 1994. Many small businesses cannot afford to invest thousands of dollars in a professional website presence, yet it’s critical to their business to have a website that reflects the professionalism of their company. WunderWebs offers these businesses an opportunity to have a professional website at a price they can afford. Check out my online portfolio there.  WunderWebs.com

Our Grandkidz

A small family site dedicated to watching our wonderful grandkids grow. Woefully, out of date. How do they grow so fast!? This site is begging for a new CMS design from the WebGoddess. (ETA 6-1-12)

N107SD

PopPop’s plane. Danny wanted a blog to journal his search for the perfect plane. Somehow I think I’ll be the one who has to make all the entries. (ETA 12-1-12)

WunderPics.com

This will be the online home of my image restoration and enhancement studio. Portfolio will include several “before and after” photos highlighting my remarkable graphic manipulation talent, if not my humility. (3-01-12)

Grammy with Me

A blog featuring my grand-daughter Sierra in which we review all the fabulous and not-so-fabulous bistros, cafes and eateries in and around Royal Oak, Michigan. The blog will also include hi-lights of our many road trips to places like DC, NYC and CT. (4-01-12)

The Zalewski Project

This project began back in 2007 by three cousins who had never met: Karen in Canada, Sandra in the USA and Peter in the UK. Karen is the owner of a large and mysterious photograph album brought back to Canada from Europe by her grandfather, William Quinn, at the end of the Second World War. At first we did not know who had owned the album originally or who took the photographs. Our main aim in this research was to identify that person or persons. What a thrilling journey of discover it has been!

About

| who are you, really?

Often touted as a “Jane of All Trades,”  Sandra was encouraged at a young age to follow her multiple passions of art, music, writing, and jurisprudence. But after a somewhat sketchy tour of duty in law school, she eventually threw out her original childhood aspirations of becoming the next singing, dancing lawyer.

Sandra also shelved the desire to be the next Jane Austin when she met and fell in love with computer programming and graphic design. Such an odd couple. With a firm understanding of HTML, Javascript and CSS, she started to tackle the “real world” of website design and development. In 1994 she delved into the young, tender underbelly of what would become the Internet and launched her first web-based business, WunderWebs (then WebyDews). She hasn’t looked back since.

Sandra describes herself to be a classy, mature woman, with a heart as big as all out doors, even the double kind that open by themselves in supermarkets. She is pro-choice, spiritually inclined but not conventionally religious, anti-dogmatic and nondoctrinaire, a headtripper without benefit of psychedelics, and a passionate but pathetic karaoke singer.

She is not in favor of the Standard American Diet or the death penalty, loves a good joke, is terrible at mysteries, and claims to be a very slow typist. Completely schooled in HTML, she doesn’t know a thing about MACs, and doesn’t want to learn. Incensed about sexual intolerance, Sandra couldn’t care less if someone wants to marry a turkey or a Chicklet™.

Visually, she appears harmless and has a misleadingly pleasant Merle Streep quality to her, but she’s got an inner Wolverine and doesn’t have much patience with narrow-minded people. She is unspeakably headstrong, willful, intelligent and opinionated, but always fair-minded and suffers fools gladly. She takes 100% responsibility for her actions and intentions, refuses the role of victim, is not easily intimidated, and laughs at herself more often than she should admit.

A talented writer, she has raised five children and is now the proud Grammy of six. Not one of them has read aSandra Miller-Long thing she has ever written.

She is married to a wonderful man who does read her stuff but refuses to admit it.

In her spare time, Sandra also enjoys water polo, black tie galas, and owns a winery in northern Italy. Ok, no not really, but she does drive a fabulous, blue and silver, Smart ForTwo Cabriolet named KARTOON.

Likes: Airplanes, Hemingway, falling snow, martinis (made from only the finest vodka), sheepdogs, large reptiles and larger birds. A self-confessed addict of genealogy, spicy food, American Idol, Christmas decorations, puns, and mahjongg.

Dislikes: Microsoft Vista.

She does not look like her photograph.
