​That's a good question, and I ask myself that quite often. 

Do I start at the very beginning?  Or should I just give a kind of overview of growing up and growing through middle age and how, in the blink of an eye, I have suddenly emerged into my  70s? I now have a grandson who is still single and is older than I was when I had three children. 

When I first started working on this website, I hadn't intended to go into my background.  I was just going to publish some of my better blogs and then add new material since I truly love to write.

Somehow, though, it seemed to make more sense to those of you who don't know me to have some idea about from whence I came. (I love that word "whence" and it hardly ever gets used!)   Also, as I started to write, I realized how funny are the things that have occurred in my life...and since I really have (and hope   to continue to have) a good life,  it seemed a lot of fun to tell my "story." (Too many quotations here; sorry.)   

​Many of them are not  "adventures" but  more like "mis-adventures." 

I will start at my beginning...inauspicious as that was.
