About Me

A few years back I decided to LIVE my life as a soaring adventure and made a vow to myself to not be afraid to try new things. So far, so good! My new husband and I are working through our "Bucket Lists" LOL I've a right wry sense of humor :)

Interests:

Anything outdoors, romping with my dogs, photography, fabric art.

Delightfully Demented In Idaho

Friends who know me very well describe me as being "Delightfully Demented" I've been called The Merry One or the GoofusAmongUs, and that's OK by me.

Brendan Gill (1914 - 1997) once said, "Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious." As far as I can tell he was right. Yes, serious things do happen but that doesn't mean I need to live seriously, simply live mindfully.

Dennis Wholey (1939 - ) said, "Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian."

And Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970) said, "The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy - I mean that if you are happy you will be good."

And John Lubbock (1834 - 1913) said, "What we see depends mainly on what we look for." I tend to look for the good in people and situations.

As Garrison Keillor (1942 - ) says, "Be well, do good work and keep in touch!"
