I am retired from the computer field, and now at age 63, I am finishing my college. I am a Rubber-MaID QUEEN, KEEPING my journals, books, tapes,magazine and keepsakes. I have control clutter. I help small children learn English, since Spanish is my second language. I learn more Spanish from Spanish speakers and they enjoy learning English from me.I am a widow with a daughter 25 and I love to travel. Acapulco and Singapore are my favoite places.
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery, but the present is a gift to be thankful. "E. Roosevelt" |

Judi....Hello and welcome!!
What a blessing to speak 2 languages. I usually can't get my first one right! Sounds like you really enjoy what you do. I could learn some things from you....not only Spanish but how to control my clutter!! What an oxymoron.
Blessings Catherine

I know Jan, I wish we all lived closer, too. Everyone's just far enough away to be inconvenient for regular meetings! We should all plan a day to get together, even if nothing comes of it. I'd love to meet some of you girls!
Much love, Laura |
