Another Day, Another Crossroads...

About Me


I'm now the successful parent (meaning they are all out of the house) of three wonderful people. It turns out, that I like my children as people, which for my part in the raising process doesn't really say much. John, Josh and Sarah (in order of birth) are my efforts of the greatest part of my adult life. I'm now all alone in a huge new house and a little at odds as how to continue from here. The nest is empty, and needs a remodel!
(shown below)
Hopefully they'll consider grandkids to visit with! I would like to write the great american novel, but it won't happen until I can get myself to figure out where I go from here. Nobody is holding me back but myself. I'm wondering if I could have an original thought, or another perspective. Everytime I see a new book or movie, I think...why didn't I think of that?
It is now just me and the love of my life. He at the moment is happy to see me working my *&^%$ off as the little haus frau. I've even done some cooking this month ("Oh the horror of it all!) and I haven't lost the knack. We are in the middle of a crossroads, but I'm sure we'll make the passage through this change in life, if we don't, you can be sure to find his body floating somewhere in the Chesapeake Bay...
I'm going to have to take a page out of my own book...it looks like my preaching has finally come back to nip me in the hindquarters...I keep preaching patience to my wonderful adult children, but I'm having trouble finding my own at the moment.

..

Oh and did I say Travel?

I'd like to meet:

Hemingway - To see if he was truly as screwed up as he was reported to be -- Shakespeare - To listen to one of his really good jokes -- The Bronte' Sisters - To ask them if they really were virgins -- Marquez - To find out what drug he was on when he wrote "100 years of Solitude"; and to learn Spanish -- Wolfe - To discuss the joys of depression -- Jesus - To get the world straightened up -- MY GRANDCHILDREN - that are yet to be born -- And people from all over the world to broaden my mind and expand my concepts of life.

Good Friends, Good Times, Great Family! ..

The Space In-Between
This is who I am at heart:

Music:


Eclectic, except for Opera, and I'm not ruling that out.

Movies:


Who has time for a movie?

Television:


Who has time for Television?

Books:

The Bible
Shakespeare's Complete works
The Sun Also Rises
Orlando
Anything by Shel Silverstein
Self-improvement books - cause everyone can improve
JUST READ!

Heroes:

People who perservere in spite of their lives continually getting in their way - not having anything to do with the following people except perhaps John. My Husband. My Children. My Sisters and Brothers. People who can easily remove the unnecessary claptrap from their lives and keep focused no matter what. People who have the ability to maintain their love of humanity, life, and this world in general.

Good morning world! Well we got our computer reloaded, but we are being very gentle with it. For some reason it wants to peg on the CPU usage meter all the time. Who knows, it could've been doing that...
