I’ve been told that some people know from early childhood what they want to “be, when they grow up,” and that they steadfastly follow that path into adulthood. I even know people who make plans months and even years in advance for trips, purchases, education, family, and retirement. It never fails to amaze me when their plans come to fruition.

April 20, 2016 by Lexa Leave a Comment

What is a Blog, why would a “lady of advanced years” be interested in writing one and, even more importantly, why would anyone be interested in reading it? Good questions, all. While I only have a general understanding of the blogosphere I feel confident that the 739-page tome I have acquired from Amazon (Blogging All-in-One for Dummies) will guide me in the paths of righteousness, or at least of readability.
