Nancy from LovelyinChocolate tagged me. Here are seven interesting facts about me. at least I hope they are.

I had a wonderful family of two sons and two daughters. One of my daughters is deceased,
but she left my two wonderful grandaughters. I now have two very special GREAT grandaughters, and a GREAT grandson.

I was blessed with a husband with whom I had 37 wonderful years of marriage. He died
of lung cancer and a few years after, I met again, my childhood friend who also lost a
spouse to cancer, and we married.

I love to travel, and I have been very lucky to have traveled to several countries and states.
Heidi living in Holland has given me a lot of this travel and my first husband was career military.

I spent 22 years of my adult life chasing shoplifters in department stores. I started just doing the floor walking, then ended up being a regional security manager of five stores. I could tell some stories.

I started knitting when we lived in Tripoli, Libya, Africa. A friend who was always knitting, taught me. Her mother owned a knitting shop in New Hampshire, Sharon orederd everything I
would need to knit a cardigan sweater, the rest is history. I still think of Sharon when I knit.

Now that my family is grown and gone, I have to confess that I now dust my stove more than
I ever cook on it. We go out to eat a lot.

With my first husband being career military, both my sons x navy men and now two grandsons
in the army, I love the military and my country. I pray they all stay safe.
