Hope you have a great day; thanks for stopping by for a visit...beware, it's almost time for me to change my page again, as autumn is approaching, BUT don't hold your breath, 'cause it may be a while before it happens.
I am the mother of a 30-year-old daughter, who is also my best friend. I also have 2 stepsons ~ 45 and 44. There are also 4 grandsons and 1 granddaughter. The eldest 'son' lives in England with his wife and 3 of the 4 grandsons.
I was born into a newspaper publishing family, so guess where I worked most of my life...you guessed it, the newspaper. The Taunton Daily Gazette was owned by my dad's family from 1848 until 1973. I worked there in various capacities (part-time and full-time ~ from the circulation department to being the Administrative Assnt to a few publishers) from 1956 until my retirement in 2004, when I retired to stay home to take care of my mother.
I'm basically a very easy-going person; slow to anger, but when I do get angry WATCH OUT! I'm also a very good listener, but will not give advice unless asked. I would also like to think that I have a good sense of humor :-)
In my high school years, I sang bass in a female barbershop quartet and was also a member of a square dance exhibition group. Also took piano lessons for 10 years.
