About me
Enjoying my retirement to the MAX!
Time for smelling the roses, making new friends, savoring every moment of the day. Life is GOOD!
These golden years: I travel the universe through cyberspace, books and art; make small talk with strangers on the street; learn from my children & grandchildren; laugh at things that used to make me sad.
Widowed for 9 years, 3 sons, 2 grandsons, 1 granddaughter
~ Eccentric by most standards, eclectic taste, an observer and learner. Mine, is a live and let live philosophy; spiritual but unlabeled. I remain a work in progress -redefining myself daily.

My 3 grand-dogs. The wild visitors in my yard--black bear, deer, a mother coon & her babies, red fox, bobcats, coyotes and a pair of cougars that can be seen and heard on occasion. A few days after my husband died, a female coyote came to my door at 3am. She stood at the door and howled and howled until I fed her. She stayed with me for 3 months until she died of cancer.

The proportions was the original point of the project. It looks right to me for some reason.
