Principal of my High School Visited Me!
Comments (20)Well, Ravencajun, I think mostly I came from a long-lived family. One thing I do that is supposed to be helpful, though I do it because I enjoy it, is doing puzzles. Every morning I do the Crytoquip and both of the crosswords in the Minneapolis paper. I have done thousands of them over the years. During the 7 years that my first husband was ill and often in hospitals or rehab, I found I could carry puzzles with me as a means to pass the long waiting times. Of course my 4 daughters are very computer literate, My youngest, who has worked for a big Tech company for years, has strongly encouraged me and has helped me out of some computer problem situations. One thing about living to my age is that one finds fewer folks who can empathize with my era. Not too many, even here, are interested in the same things as I am. That's one reason that I enjoy this board. We had an active writer's group here for a while, but, sadly, all of the other members have died. That does something to you, believe me....See MoreBaby Picture Senior Gal
Comments (24)Murraysmom, it really is a shame and mystery. My paternal Grandmother did a lot of photo exchanges with family still in Ireland and those photos are all nicely documented with names & dates. My siblings and I have always treasured them. There are some amazing photos in my Mom’s box, I could spend days looking at them and never get bored, we just wish we knew who they are! Seniorgal, I’m sorry you’ve not been well and being lonely isn’t much fun either. I’m hopeful that you might be willing to share more photos and if you’re so inclined the stories behind them....See MoreAges at KT: been some time since we have done this
Comments (89)I will turn 69 in a few months. I am trying not to look at the years ahead in terms of time left or at the time as passed. I was born in 1950 and never thought beyond the year 2000. So being older than 50 is hard to fathom. Being active in the moment and having full days is the goal. I came to the Kitchen Forum when we were remodeling the kitchen at the riverhouse in 2009. Found I enjoyed the company. I poked around the Garden Web and landed at KT. I admire all the people here....See MoreFloof! Time travel! The year is 2005
Comments (25)I would have been finishing up my 10th year of working at a small K-8 elementary school and the school would have been finishing up the school year. At this time of year, we would have been practicing for the school play and participating in track events. May would have brought field trips to mark the end of the school year and the 8th graders would have been excited about their upcoming graduation trip. For many of them, it would be their first time going out of town and staying in a hotel. The 8th grade graduation plans would have been well under way. Spring testing would also have been taking place along with parent/teacher conferences. It was a very busy time of year at school, but also a fun time as everyone (students and staff) looked forward to the arrival of summer break. I think the only people who didn't look forward to the end of the school year were the parents!...See More- 6 years ago
