About me

Gender	Female
Occupation	Newspaper columnist
Introduction	At age 70, I feel I still see the world through the eyes of myself at age 7. Folks are frequently surprised at my candor both in person and through my column but I enjoy saying it like it is . . . according to my perspective. That didn't make much sense, did it? I say what everyone wants to say but is afraid to. I'm the original I Don't Care Girl. Peer pressure? Ha!
Interests	My two college-aged granddaughters, my "roomie" of almost 50 years, diet Red Bull, March Madness, daily jumble and cryptoquip, reading, libraries, Tebow, I used to love Michael Jordan until he turned into a total horse's patootie, the scent of Spring, cooking,driving to new places, flying, green (especially summer/spring when things are growing and alive as opposed to fall/winter browns), Mike & Mike in the Morning, my son's novels, deep soakie baths, making up words when I write and can't think of the right one (Oh, you noticed?)
Favorite movies	I love chick flicks. Happy endings.
Favorite music	Sinatra, Beatles, Taylor Swift, Patty Smith, the Stones, Who, Garth Brooks, Michael Buble. I like pretty much everything. But rap. I hate rap.
Favorite books	Just finished Pat Conroy's "South of Broad". Kathryn Stockett's "The Help", Margaret Atwood's "The Blind Assassin" and J.D. Robb's "Kindred in Death". Two weeks from now I'll have a hard time remembering those titles or the authors. I also enjoy reading my son-the-author-Ad-Hudler's novels,which you should buy and read, read, read!
