Happy New Year!

01-05-11- Last year, I was alone a lot because my husband was very busy. I decided that I had enough time to write two books at once. Even though they are well on their way to being finished, I'm holding them back for a while for a final tweaking. My editor hates it when I rewrite after she has already edited...please don't tell her!

Politics: An open comment to our congress: this year, I want more. More integrity. More cooperation. More statesmanship. More good government. See what you can do.

I almost forgot: Hey, Bernie! What's for lunch over in the big house?!

On my TV: I haven't had time to check out the new shows. I hope there is something for me this season. If it weren't for Discovery, The History Channel, The Food Network, HGTV, and MSNBC, I'd sell my TV and buy a radio. What are you watching? Write and let me know.

Grandmother's Screen Door



January 5, 2011- Just before Christmas, I was asked to submit a multi-cultural commentary on Collaborative Nation: http://www.collaborativenation.com/bicultural-and-mutlicultural-corner.html



I was pleased to participate in this project as my family was definitely multi-cultural! Our family was a happy mix of Hispanics, Anglos, Germans, and Japanese! I guess that's what you can expect when a lot of the men in the family were in the military.


Right now, there are three commentaries, more are on the way.
