About Me

My photo
I am a retired English teacher and department head, the mother of three grand mother of four, and have been married to the same man for 53 years, two years after we met at college. I taught in both middle and high schools as I really love teens and in-betweens. I was also a certified Lamaze instructor, and for a short time a volunteer chaplain at Howard County General Hospital. I am a two-time cancer survivor, ovarian (2003), and breast (2019) I was born in South Philadelphia and grew up in the 'burbs with great parents, in a bilingual household. I love soft pretzels and cheesesteaks, the Phillies, the Eagles, the Orioles, and sometimes the Ravens. I love being Mom, Aunt Kathy, Nona Kathy (Kath), and Teacher. I spend a lot of time in my gardens in the spring and summer, and in the winter I plan what I'm going to plant. I also am an avid reader, cook, photographer, lover of languages, music, and four-footed furries.

I'll Read Them All, Promise...

I'm posting without catching up on all your great blogs.  Have read a few, but working on this small computer is just too difficult as it frequently throws fits.  I'll catch up on reading after we get back.

Tonight is our last night in San Diego.  I'll be very sorry to leave and have expressed, much to husband's chagrin, many, many times how much I'd love to live here.  I know that won't be happeneing...unless we win that lottery.  Like I said, I know that won't be happening.

After a great b-fast with Margie and Dave at the Naked Cafe (where we were all clothed), we're off today to take photos of the La Jolla shore.  We'll meet with them for our last dinner.

We've crammed so much into this week.  Yesterday we visited the Air and Space Museum  (where we saw replicas of the planes my dad flew during the China Burma Campaign (he was a navigator in a C-51))and the Conservatory gardens in Balboa Park.  We also had the fantastic fish tacos at South Beach in Ocean Beach.  I must confess that husband, M & D succumbed to going there just to shut me up.  We've gone there each time we've come out here and the fish tacos are the best we've ever had.  Everyone enjoys South Beach, but admittedly, I'm like a dog with a bone...
