Wallingford, Ky. is a small country town . . . and I still have an affinity for the country. Our family moved to Ashland, Ky. when I was five years old. Then we moved to our new home in 1958 in Russell, Ky. Shortly after graduating from Russell High School in 1960 I moved to Washington, D.C. to work at the Identification Building for the FBI. While living in D.C. I had the opportunity to visit many precious sites connected with our country. Have you ever walked to the top of the Washington Monument or seen the Lincoln Memorial Jefferson Memorials or seen Arlington Cemetery, JFK's eternal flame in Virginia? I've seen the Capitol, the Whitehouse. Oh how I love this country. At the National Archives in DC I got to see The Declaration Of Independence. There is more to see I haven't mentioned, and if you have the opportunity to vist D.C. I highly recommend you do. States I have lived in or visited are: Kentucky, Ohio, W. Va., Maryland, Va., North and South Carolina, Nashville, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi New Orleans,Lousiana, Missouri,,Indiana,.Illinois, Michigan. No foreign countries as yet.

I did enjoy working, but I am glad I have retired.  One of the first jobs I had was working for the FBI in Washington, DC.

I have two beautiful grandsons, one is Gunnur who is nine  and the second one is Griffin who is seven. Ergo . . . GunGriff.

I hope to be around in the future to see both of my grandsons graduate from high school. I was almost sixty before becoming a grandmother, so I want to love and cherish them with my remaining time here on this earth.

I have read so many of my favorite authors, that I find myself searching for new ones.  Have joined two book groups.  Murder, Mystery and Mayhem, and Book Lover's Cafe.  

THERE IS A GROUP  Seniors 65 AND UP. THIS IS AN INVITATION TO JOIN AND SHARE SOME OF YOUR LIFE EXPERIENCES.

Of course it has to be my daughter and grandsons. A very special friend I used to work with named Brenda, my aunt Bonnie that is so full of life and elan. The most important is Jesus.

Tylar, a Shetland Sheepdog that I had for 12 years. She was a member of our family and it was a great loss when she was gone. Rambo, my hyper-min-pin. He was beautiful and I had him for 8 years until he was stolen. It is hard to lose a pet, because they become like your child. Chloe, our Sheltie. We now have a new puppy and his name is Jasper. He is a Bi-Blue Merle Sheltie. Jasper went to doggie heaven yesterday.
