Our World

A new autumn season is slipping into place and the brilliant colors are beginning to appear in “my world”!  Join us and share the beauty of “your world”!!




The foliage has been losing its freshness through the month of August, and here and there a yellow leaf shows
itself like the first gray hair amidst the locks of a beauty who has seen one season too many."
-  Oliver Wendell Holmes

Ah, I do SO relate to this quote -- regarding age, not beauty, you understand!!!

One Quiet Moment

I've never known anyone yet who doesn't suffer a certain restlessness when autumn rolls around... We're all eight years old again and anything is possible.
-- Sue Grafton

Laughter for Sunday!!

One of my favorite French proverbs!  The most wasted of all days is the day when we have not
LAUGHED!!! 
 And I want to help you all laugh today!!





What Can I Say?

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.
