I'm Weird....

Yes, I admit it, I'm weird. Why do I say that?

On being a septagenarian

I turned seventy last September. Guess what? It didn't bother me! Nope, not one little bit. In fact, I felt proud that I'd made it. While I still have a couple of years to live longer than my father, I've way surpassed my mother who died at sixty-one.

Being a reader...and a writer

I've alway been a voracious reader, devouring book upon book, even at a young age. I grew up on Wind in the Willows, Charlotte's Web, Mary Poppins, Cheaper by the Dozen, National Velvet, Black Beauty, Misty of Chincoteague (do we see a trend here?) as well as all the Bobbsey Twins and Trixie Beldon books. In high school it was 1984, Animal Farm, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead.
