    • About Me

      I have made some wonderful friends on DS. I'm a grandmother of 2. My daughter and oldest granddaughter (16) live in FL. I miss them. I like music and watching the food channel(Although I don't cook too much anymore) Hopefully I will again. I also like the oldies and I like to sing. I'm married to a very nice guy but he kind of has a hard time understanding all of this. But he tries. I also take care of my 91 year old mom who lives with me.
