Some Sad News
I learned this evening that a cousin of mine that I spent every summer with when we were growing up, passed away this evening. She had been battling cancer for the past year and a half. I'm so grateful that I was able to spend time with her this summer when the remaining members of our family got together in Houston for a wonderful visit. She was younger than I am by several years and a very talented musician. What a loss to her family, her husband and two daughters. One can't help but wonder, why?? But then I guess there are many of us who ask that question many times in our lives.

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
