Welcome!
I am a life commentator, social observer and provider of the profound written word.
I’ve been compared to Erma Bombeck and called the female Andy Rooney. Outrageous compliments gracefully accepted (suitable curtsy).
Speaker, writer, program director and author of the book Single Past 50 Now What?, I am an outspoken advocate for tackling life and our pursuits of happiness with humor and purpose.
Within this site I promise my readers interesting and thought provoking subjects and conversations … and a few laughs along the way.
Join in! Happy to have you along for the read.

Life can get pretty squirrelly
Someone is in the attic. He’s loud, noisy and an early riser. He’s also uninvited. No, it’s not Uncle Al; it’s a resident squirrel. A little over two weeks ago, we were awakened before sunrise by a loud thumping and … Continue reading
