Try again

Well, as you may notice----I am a lost soul at the moment.  My friend Geri set my blog up for me and it looked simple.  Ha...I have been trying for four days to figure out how to create another.  Guess I finally figured that much out.  If any of you have suggestions, helps or just sympathy, please let me know.

I sat down and tried to write a couple of essays to submit and then I thought, what the heck--I didn't want to start a blog to write a book, I just wanted to communicate with people that have some of my interests.  That was one reason.  The other reason is that I get so tired of people always saying that they don't want to get old or that old people don't seem to have much to live for.  My answer is phooy.At 85 the only thing I don't like ios that I know I will never live long enough to do all I want to do.l

I would love to talk to you if your are interested in writing, watercolor painting, colored pencil art, sharing great recipes, any books you would reccomend and why, or just what you spend your day doing. 

I think this electronic age is so great.  Since I have joined Facebook I have met two new friends, one from Australia and one from Flordia.  I have reunited with almost a hundred kids that I taught over 40 years ago, and I have seen loads of photos of my great-grandkids as well as photos of many friends.
I am really excited about blogging.  Hope to hear from some of you soon.

Great Blessisngs to all of you,
Joyce

Introduction

Coming to you from Pinebrook! I want to let all of you know how great it is to be 85! I also want to post poetry, book reviews and other things I find interesting. I'll also be writing about my daily round.
