This is me....

I'm just an Ordinary Woman living a very interesting life.

I've decided that I should blog... I could say "My Husband made me do it" and that could be partly true. He has encouraged me to write for as long as we have known each other. Having said that, if you knew me, you would know that no one could ever make me do something that I didn't want to do. So for anyone out there that cares, I'm doing this for me!

I don't know if this is an exercise in futility, if anyoine will ever want to read my ramblings, but it's my story and I want to capture it while I can still remember.

Long ago in a town far far away.....

I had a pretty normal life for a kid growing up in the 60's. I lived in a smallish town, where I knew a lot of people, a better way to put it would be that a lot of people knew me and had the freedom to just kind of roam. One of my favorite past times was to go visiting. This would entail me walking anywhere from 2 to 20 blocks to knock on the door of some unsuspecting person and going in for a visit. Sometimes these would be people who were my age, but more than likely they would be friends of my mother's or part of the very large church community that I belonged to. It's wild when you think of it isn't it? I was like 8 or 9 just wandering around, I would just tell my mother that I was going visiting and she would say be home in time for lunch or supper and away I would go.

I'm getting tired right now so I think that it's time for bed
