Merry Christmas!
It is a cloudy day in South Carolina, but not so cold. Hope you are warm. It is wonderful to be with family, especially with our kids and our granddaughter. By Saturday we will all be together and I am looking forward to that. We have gifts under the tree, and the smell of turkey roasting. It doesn't matter what we get, it is just wonderful to be together. Hope that you are having a wonderful time as well.
I was recently diagnosed with dementia/early Alzheimer's. The one positive thing that has come of this diagnosis is that my life is slowing down. I won't be running here and there. I am planning to keep life very simple. I want to enjoy all that I can, including the arrival of my first grandchild - a beautiful girl. Till then, I will write about my experiences and take the time to read, think, drink hot chocolate and crochet. I have a great gift....permission to slow down.

Old Poetry
No news is good news on the head shots! If there were tumors in my brain they would have immediately contacted us. I've got my hearing aid and love it. I can hear again!
Meanwhile, I am going through my old school stuff. I found some poems and stories that I wrote when I was 10 or so. That was the beginning of my poet career which survived through High School. Unfortunately in college I studied all the masters and realized I was not so good. ; {
These are my earliest! (10 yo )
AUTUMN LEAVES
Autumn leaves are falling, falling,
Red green and brown.
Pittering, Pattering, chittering, chattering on the soft ground.
You rake them up in a big, big pile
Bout two fee high
Then play in them for a long, long while
And listen to them sigh
I love Autumn leaves.
