Here's what I think about it....

Things that make me feel good:

-catching up on the email
-finding comments on my blog
-looking at photo albums on Facebook
-having the house cleaned
-popcorn while watching The Office
-trips to east Tennessee
-people who think I might have some wisdom to impart (notice: think)
-flu shots
-a blog map of the world showing a reader in the Middle East and one in Spain
-a book well-written
-Minetonka moccasins
-a scarf from a friend that I know was purchased underground in New York City

I am thankful for these and other things. And that's what I think about it.

Welcome

The most important thing about me that you might want to know is that I am a Christian. Unapologetically. You'll not have to wonder when you read from day to day or occasionally what world view I'm coming from.

That said I have lived in four states and now make my home in Middle America, in tornado alley...without a basement...thus my world view.

Lucky me to have traveled to eleven foreign countries and shame on me for not knowing any other language well enough to do more than say 'please' and 'thank you' in any of them.

I pig out on Junior Mints and am healthier now that my favorite soft drink has added vitamins to their formula.

The family? Two daughters, delights in every way and four grand daughters, ditto that. A near-perfect son-in-law (but only since no one can be really perfect) and a cat named Kat Karson, rescued from the animal shelter.

Oh yes, Jim, my good friend and husband. He's sort of retired but is still an attorney and thought it was very funny when he put a link on my blog to his favorite home-cooked recipes and then when I clicked on it it found it was empty. He is funny and wise, a reconciler and all-around good guy.

We spend a lot of time at soccer games, track meets and choral concerts.

I'm mostly retired also. I read, volunteer as a child advocate in the local court system, teach at the church and speak where ever people will gather to listen. My daughter and I lead a book discussion group and I play percussion in one of the church's worship bands.

I follow the Indianapolis Colts, the Cleveland Cavs, world soccer, and especially Big Ten football and Ohio State.

I try never to miss The Office and realize I've worked with or been every character on the show.
