Okay, so the presumptuous nature of having a blog is not lost on me. HOWEVER, I have felt for a long time that I have something to say.Inspired by me longtime college friend, I have decided to just have my say, and see what, if anything happens.
I am trying to be optimistic in spite of global warming, violence, hatred, economic problems... Optimism, although elusive, is not proving totally impossible. The US will have a new president in 18 days. It seems like too much to put on the shoulders of one mere mortal, but I am hopeful that with the help of many equally intelligent, hardworking and compassionate people, some of our problems can be helped.
On a personal note, I am trying to take better care of myself, and live with conviction and laughter!
About Me
- notes from the ordinary
- I am 46 years old. I am married to the great guy in the picture (wonderful husband - wh). I have an 18-year-old daughter (darling daughter -dd), and a 14-year-old son (charming son cs). My parents are alive, healthy, and still married after 47 years! My life is ordinary, but not really, I live in the most conservative county in Ca, and I am a liberal Democrat. I live in the OC, the land of botox, boob jobs, excess, huge houses, trophy wives etc. I am short, a bit chubby, and definitely have not had "work" done. I live in a small 51 year old house. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the OC is also a land of White people, including the kind that don't like non-white people! I am 50% African! I don't know why in 1973 when there were only 5 other "Black" families my parents decided to move to the city of La Palma CA - OC! We literally knew all of the black people in our town of 15,000! I guess I'm not so ordinary...more on that later!
