The community presented the opportunity to participate in construction of adobe, forged-earth, and baled hay projects as part of an eco-healthy environmental effort. The author realized that with a basic knowledge, anyone could get started doing their own work; all it took was fortitude and knowing when to ask for assistance.

The home-building process has been a passion since then, and she looks forward to sharing her knowledge and experience with others, as well as building another home. Corie is the author of God Has a Sense of Humor, a comedic book reflecting on the foibles of life, and is noted for her many articles and talks addressing health care issues, nutrition, and aging. In addition she has plied her craft to educational study guides, test-question writing, and contributing to academic publications.

The Army veteran enjoys the company of her companion Drummer, who was adopted from a Virginia animal shelter where he was brought after an abusive owner forced the young dog into fighting, then abandoned on a roadside.
