I have reared six children who have made me very proud of who they've become as well as their achievements. I am just eighty-two, but have plans to continue writing and doing paintings of portraits, still-life, land and seascapes for many years to come. I am healthy and have many interests. Learning new things regarding health and much more delights me. My other hobbies are Scrabble, cross-words, puzzles and card games that expand my mind. I love life!
