my new lane


I'm a wife of one man (good start, eh?).  I also have four children, three in-loves, and eight grandchildren. Sixteen treasures, as beautiful and wonderful as are the treasures in your life!  And that's not including the extended family of parents, siblings, nieces, nephews, dogs, cats, parakeets, etc., and so she continues through the menagerie, ad nauseum... 
     I'm sixty-five years and three days old...I mean, rich.  How wonderful have been the lanes I've traveled!  No, not always fun or easy.  But always blessed. I am blessed to know that, by God's grace, I can survive, I can keep learning, I have dear folks around me who love me no matter how grumpy I am. Best of all, I still have my heavenly Father.  (I can mention God here, right?  Good, I thought so.  I knew I was amongst respectful and respectable folks.)
     Now I'm wandering down this new lane.  Blogging.  At sixty-five years and three days.  Many of you started down this lane long ago.  I admire your courage.  Or is it recklessness? Perhaps some of both!  We're throwing our thoughts out into the vast universe.  A little scary.  A little fun.  So far the universe isn't throwing these thoughts of mine back.  Good start, eh?
     Talk to you later, wonderful creation!

Love your blog, Marmee! It's the best ever! Can't rave about it enough. You sound like a fellow artsy-schmartsy writer.
