Shay-Nuh! That’s me. A 50-ish year old who is a closet writer and would like to be famous someday for writing books. To make money I work nights as an RN. I would much rather win the lottery. I like to draw and read, make scrapbooks and jewellery, and sit at the beach, listening to the waves. I like history, genealogy, photography, cooking, hiking and geocaching. I regularly ride my bike to work- slowly!! I live with my hubster and daughter in the Niagara area of Ontario, Canada! I spend far too much time on the computer!! I’m organized and neat. And don’t like talking about myself.

In the photo she was very young and very beautiful and and I remember her commenting that now she felt very old and very removed from that photo. She was still very beautiful but just different.
That's the pattern of life: from young to old. Getting old is certainly bet Read more of this blog post »
