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.

Yes, it's me
I've had so much fun with this clever promotion for the upcoming Peanuts movie. If you'd like to "peanutize" yourself, click here.

1. Did someone die in that last movie you watched? No. It was The Missiles of October, about the Cuban Missile Crisis, and no one died because of the wisdom, imagination and temperament of the man we were lucky enough to have in the Oval Office in 1962. Something to keep in mind when we vote in 2016.
2. Are the trees pretty colors outside for you now or at all? The tree outside my livingroom window is currently awash in brown leaves.
3. Have you ever made a bad first impression on someones parents? All the time.
4. When's the last time you video recorded something on TV? See Question 1.
5. What is a career you wanted to have when you were younger, and still kind of want to have now? When I was younger I wanted to be a reporter, but I don't anymore.
6. What are your views on sunflowers? They are good for feed in Farmville 2.
7. What is your favorite incense or candle scent? Cinnamon.
8. Caramel apples or candy apples? They're not the same thing? I've gotta go to Google and get educated.
9. Have you ever walked into a wall? I just did on Wednesday. At Pret a Manger, they are clear glass and yes, I mistook a wall or a door and made an idiot of myself.
10. Would you ever or do you make your dog wear a bandanna? I am not philosophically opposed putting a bandana on a dog.
11. Do you find dandelions when they're gone all white pretty? Yes
12. What makes you laugh? Ah, Lydia.
13. The scariest moment of your life? Seven years ago I was nearly hit by a cab. I remember it as though it was yesterday.
14. What’s the coolest thing you’ve bought lately? Three pair of jeans that actually fit.
15. What’s the worst you’ve had to do because of losing a bet? Nothing outrageous or bad comes to mind. Usually my bets involve $1 or candy from the vending machine.
