Hello. It's me, Christie. I haven't made an entry to this blog in awhile. It's a bit like 'The Little Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly'. I don't know why, either!

So much has happened during my absence in noting it. Sometimes, I feel as though I fell asleep the day after I retired from my job and went into a kind of hibernation...so far as blogging was concerned...and a few other things. Take regular housekeeping, for example. I feel I accomplished more while I worked a job away from home and raised some kids than I sometimes do, during these ongoing retirement years. 

Well, here I go again...blogging, .....maybe...is this account still live? Is the microphone on?
