How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you? I look in the mirror and I can see the wrinkles around my mouth and eyes. Even fine wrinkles on my cheeks. My neck gives my age away. Why does the neck sag so much? But it’s all me. Nothing fake. No Botox. NoContinue reading “Getting Older but Wiser”

Flying
Was today typical? This was yesterday. We flew from Heathrow to JFK. We had a connecting flight to Miami. The plane was overbooked so they asked for volunteers to give up seats. We did for $700 voucher each, food and car service. We spent the night at my best friends who I don’t see veryContinue reading “Flying”
Happy, Joyous and Free
How would you describe yourself to someone? I would describe myself as an outgoing, caring older woman who is a good listener. I enjoy life. I’m free from addictive behavior, especially drinking. I love life!

If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? No really! Is it business class or economy? I hate long hauls in economy so I will assume it’s business class. Right now we are contemplating Japan. So ANA business to Japan would be wonderful. I’m interested in Prague as well so that wouldContinue reading “Fly me to the moon”

We awoke when our coffee and tea were delivered and afterward headed off the ship. We walked to the InvergordonContinue reading “A Stop in Invergordon”

The Orkney Islands
After a few ports in Iceland, we headed south to the Orkney Islands in Scotland. I woke at around 3 am to check out the sky. It appears that the moon is almost full. Waking again at 8 am we were already in port. We had a shuttle ride into town which was great becauseContinue reading “The Orkney Islands”
