| I do not know quite what happened or when , but my hubby and I now qualify for seniors' discounts at some venues. This creates a quandary; in order to save money, but not face, we have to admit to our age. HMMMM..... We definitely do not consider ourselves to be old. In this day and age ,when people as a whole are living longer and healthier lives why are 'young seniors', those in their fifties, like moi, considered 'old'?? It's so true that age is just a perception! "Maturity" is very objective/subjective, and I object! Whew, a few years have skittered by since I composed this biography block. Those "fifties" are in the rear view mirror and they are distant, fond memories. Oh, I do not plan to stop writing any time soon. |
| PROMPT: Fun Fact Friday! On this day in 2007, the seventh book of the Harry Potter series, 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows', was released. Ok guys... let's hear all about your Potter fandom. And if for some reason you're like me and never got into the series, tell us why. Why? Er, um, because.... Hmm. I will admit that I'm not a Potterite, or Potter head, or Wizard wannabe, or whatever. The whole worship -this-franchise thing eludes me. I do not garb myself in a cloak, or don a pair of eyeglasses, or wave a wand, or live with an owl. I am, however, not entirely ignorant of things Harry Potter. I've sat in darkened movie theatres amazed at the special effects inspired by J.K. Rowling. She can weave a spell all her own. I'm just not a rabid, hard core fan. Yes, I was entertained. Other films have accomplished this very same feat. My eldest daughter has devoured each and every book in this series. She recommended that I too read them. So far, I have managed to accumulate a few volumes of Harry Potter. At the moment, they are residing ,quite comfortably I believe, on one of my three book shelves. Yes, they may be somewhat obscured by a layer of dust, and a stack of other reading material. They seem to not be a priority? Technically, they are awaiting my attention. Someday, I might possibly give them a chance. In truth, they vie for my undivided adoration, as do all of my tomes. I'm not exaggerating, I possess my own private library. So much to enjoy, so little free time to do so. I am puzzled that I have yet to open a Harry Potter novel. It's not as if I never make the time to sit and read. They are certainly patient, biding their time. |
