Beginning to begin

This is my first entry.  I hope to build this blog with a better look and better blogs as I learn more about the process.

Twenty-eight years ago I had a column in a now defunct newspaper in El Paso, Texas.  I wrote about the things I found humorous about living and life and how silly we humans can be.  I was a middle-aged woman back in the 80s, two teenagers, a husband and a dog.  I am now a freshman senior citizen with no husband, two children and five grandchildren plus their spouses and four great granddaughters and a great-grandson who is supposed to make his appearance April 15th and a cat.

By the way, I said I am a freshman senior.  I have decided that the term Senior Citizen is too broad.  So, I figure we can divide it into classes like in high school.


  • In your sixties -- Freshman Senior  Some of us are still trying to pass for being middle-aged yet.
  • In your seventies -- Sophomore Senior  
  • In your eighties -- Junior Senior
  • In you nineties -- Super Senior  I imagine I will be very glad to become a Super Senior, but thinking about graduation is kind of sad.


 Life is still silly, funny and sometimes even bizarre. So I am ready to share my thoughts on the silly things I have observed.

I'll be back soon if anyone's listening.
