Introduction I am blessed to live in San Diego. People come here for a vacation and I get live here all year long. I taught 2nd grade for 43years and retired in 2013.I still volunteer in a 2nd grade at my school every Thursday. I have two grown daughters that are a very important part of my life. I am married a wonderfully patient man with two daughters a son and two granddauhters, and we live with two very entertaining cats. While I enjoy champagne at a wedding or special occasion , I do not need alcohol to have fun and it is never an option if I am upset. I truly can find joy in simple pleasures. I do not drink coffee, I am so blessed to take care of my youngest granddaughter once a week. She calls me Gamma and Bill is Popi. Hearing her say her names for us brings such joy to my heart.
Interests Enjoying our paradise weather we work in the yard together. He is really the gardener and we've added fruit trees to the yard. But, roses are my favorite flowers, and I have 36 rose bushes I tend. I have also added gladiolas. I enjoy going out to eat (dessert with my meal is the best) and seeing a movie (nothing scary!)We enjoy attending church together. Mashed potatoes go with any fish chicken or meat. I love hot chocolate with lots of whipped cream. I find bubble baths and massages very relaxing. I love to give and receive hugs. I play Words With Friends. We liked to travel together and stay in nice places.
Favorite Movies My all time favorite is Gone With the Wind! I do not watch scary movies!! I am a sucker for romantic comedies.
Favorite Music I like all kinds of music--nothing too loud. Good music touches the soul especially the old hymns and praise music. No matter what the occasion, a song always comes to mind.
Favorite Books I love a good children's picture book with a story even adults can relate to, and I am trying to write one. I have a Harry Potter book collection, and I just finished reading Book 4. I love to read the newspaper and People magazine
