These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Hey, Chicago, what do you say? Cubs are gonna win today!
Put those brooms away! The Cubs spanked the Cardinals 10-3, and the four-game skid is finally over. Congratulations to Kosuke Fukodome, who had a terrific day at the plate today, his birthday. I imagine it will be a happy team that flies out to Arizona tonight.
Sunday Stealing
Sunday Stealing: The Mud Meme
1. What are your current obsessions? My diet and exercise. I don't know how long this enthusiasm will last, but it's certainly better for me than some of my obsessions in days gone by.
2. Which item from your wardrobe do you wear most often? Jeans
3. What's for dinner? For Sunday dinner I plan on having meat of some sort. Sausage on my pizza, perhaps a juicy burger ...
4. Last thing you bought? Movie ticket for State of Play.
5. What are you listening to? Law & Order: SVU.
6. If you were a god/goddess who would you be? You mean I'm not a goddess?
7. Favorite holiday spots? Key West for New Year's Eve.
8. Reading right now? Go Down Together, the real story of Bonnie and Clyde.
9. 4 words to describe yourself. Strong, sentimental, optimistic, and short.
10. Guilty pleasure? Celebrity gossip. US, People, Showbiz Tonight, etc.
11. Who or what makes you laugh until you’re weak? My oldest friend. She just has a way of cracking me up.
12. Planning to travel to next? Key West for New Year's Eve.
13. Best thing you ate or drank lately? Steak sandwich at lunch Thursday. Yummy!
14. When did you last get tipsy? I mixed myself a pair of too-strong cran and vodkas one day after work nto that long ago.
15. Care to share some wisdom? If you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.
16. Nicest thing anyone’s ever said to you? My best friend told me how easy I am to talk to.
