LifeAbout Me
I am a retired college administrator. I completed my BS in Sociology/Psychology, being the only one in my immediate family to have a 4-year degree. I entered graduate school, but started to burn out, so I opted out. In hindsight, rather sorry I did. I enjoy watching golf, tennis, some college basketball, football, etc. I've taken golf lessons, but remain a beginner. I enjoy reading, movies, television, plus...trying to make each day a happy one. I belong to a mystery lover's discussion group that meets at one of the local libraries once per month. I never thought I'd be a mystery reader, but I am now.
Interests:
Well, there really isn't too much to add to that that I have written in the "About Me" section. I do handicrafts, mostly knitting and crocheted items. I am not, nor have I ever been, athletic (kind of klutzy, you might say--the tennis racquets I used always had a hole in them). However, I make a great cheerleader!My Photos (1)

Dear Willie, It is so nice to have you a member of our little group. I am so surprised, seeing how busy you are, that you have time to knit.
I, too, am the cheerleader type. Even when I tried to bowl, I carried an average of 92. However; I was popular as a substitute because we got such a large handicap. The rest of the sports I tried had even more dire results. :-)
I live in Dearborn, Michigan, and today is about the most perfect day that I have seen in a long, long time.
I was reading Skeeto's reply to one of your postings. She mentions that you are a 5-year survivor. Is that a cancer survivor? I just passed my 5 years after breast cancer, with no sign of recurrence. I'm so grateful.
I am a widow, and I also lost my youngest daughter three years ago. My oldest daughter lives in the condo next door to me, and I'm enjoying that.
I hope to hear from you again. I'd like to know what knitting projects you are working on.
