I like to tell people that I am a retired lion tamer, but in actuality, I am a retired middle school principal (not all that much difference). I am married to an Englishman who is retired from the British Foreign Service. We live in Paradise. We travel a lot, both in the USA and abroad. Between us we have 4 children , 2 in the UK and 2 in the US, 10 grandchildren, 5 here and 5 in UK. I love to write. I tend to like to keep things simple and serene. I daily practice living in a drama free zone. I spend my time sifting, sorting and pondering life’s compexities.
