I'm much happier without the constant nag nag nag in my ear and the unending line of in-laws and their spouses.

The men were nicer than the women--except for Rich Rich and Dr.Daisy. As for "The Hepburn" and JLN, and GT--they were so jealous

but the thing is, I never envied any one of them--I have my own problems.

I'm as happy as a flower if I have food shelter and water, and a few clothes and shoes, and books and pieces of paper, a laptop, a cell phone and my brain.
