Time Harmonizer

My Favorite Things:
I like…the color orange
the fruit plum
my dog Shasta

my many friends

to go swimming
Not much has changed in the past 40 years.
How could I have ever known back in ’74 that my book would take the form of a blog instead. Now that I will be turning 50 in 2014, I figured it was time to start in earnest. And as far as it being a best seller, I have concluded that just because no one might not ever read it, that should not be a reason to not write it.
Thank you Melissa for a gift that has kept on giving!
