More about me

Hi There:

I am approaching my 63rd birthday on the 30th of January, and I am so elated to still be in the land of the living.  I finally have my freedom after all of these years.  No more responsibility for anyone else on a daily basis but myself.  After raising my grandson for fourteen years since his birth, he decided he wanted to go and live with his mother.  At first I thought I wouldn't survive with him gone.  Now, I wonder why I didn't let him go sooner.  I love him, but I don't love those teenage ways.  It's not easy coping with the young people today.  I have returned to college, doing some volunteering, and still working my full-time job.  I am not dating because I don't llike game-playing, and there's a lot of that going on out there.  I am just doing "ME"!
