So went the message I received from my buddy today. I was so happy to hear from him! He works on the other side of the Loop, he's married now and lives in the burbs, and we just kinda drifted apart. But this afternoon we caught up on his job, my job, his summer, my summer, our Cubs ...
He sounds very settled into his married life (complete with stepson) and I'm glad. Being sweet and thoughtful like this is so like him!
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.

"I Want" Wednesday
This week's question is:
What do you want to discover?
I have had a fantasy for decades now about walking along and discovering a new color just laying in the grass. It's either a stone or a leaf. Holding it in my hands, it fills me with a remarkable sense of well being. Then I ponder what to do with it: Do I share it with the world or keep it to myself?
