I love church hymns. My favorite is Vestal Goodman singing Rock of Ages and I try to listen to it every night just before bed. I also love the 1950s & '60s rock 'n roll I listened to as a teenager. Celtic music and opera also hold a special place in my heart.
I've loved books since the first day I learned to read. The thicker, the better, as long as it's a good story. I carry one with me everywhere. I have a couple of Kindles but I want to feel the weight, size and texture of a real book in my hands; however, I've warmed up to the Kindle out of necessity...sigh.

Thorn Birds
Cornbread, hamburgers, pork roast. Nothing can beat a full breakfast of biscuits, eggs, gravy, bacon and sausage. Our whole family enjoys breakfast for dinner once or twice a month. I've been a coffeehead for over 50 years and can't do without my 3 cups a day.
MY FAVORITE COLOR
purple, lavender, lilac
aqua, teal
"dusty" shades and vintage colors and patterns
8/8/25 --- Since our beloved NOTH will sadly be shutting down any day now, the most important thing you can read on my page is that I will be on MyBoomerPlace under the username of logcabinkae. I would love for you to find me over there and send me a friend request. I will certainly be looking for all of you as well. NOTH has been an important part of my life for many years. I've met wonderful people and made a lot of very dear friends on here. I'm grateful to have found NOTH and the joy and memories it's given me. I'm even more thankful for the opportunity to continue my friendships from NOTH on MyBoomerPlace. See y'all over there!
I am still doing my genealogy work and lookups. If any of you are interested in finding out more about your family history, I have over 21 years of experience, work for free for my NOTH (and MyBoomerPlace) family. I would be glad to help. I love research so don't be shy about giving me a project.

ABOUT ME
Texas born and California grown, the oldest of 4 girls and a boy. I met my husband at work in 1967; we married 3 1/2 years later. Our son was born in 1986, has schizoaffective disorder and lives with us. Our daughter was born in 1991. She graduated from college as a nutritionist. I've done all kinds of things to make a living - chopping cotton and cutting grapes when I was 13; shelving books and sweeping classroom floors when I was 16; cafeteria server, cashiering and secretarial work at various companies. I retired in 1997 after 15 years in advertising and journalism at a major newspaper.
