Hi there, I am a true blue frozen blood Canadian and because we spend so much of the year in a winter wonderland, I have become an avid reader! Believe me, it's a survival tool as well as being lots of fun. I am very recently widowed after over 30 years of marriage - I cared for my husband for many years as he was a victim of M.S., now he is gone, I don't quite know how to fill my time, guess I will be reading even more. In case you are looking for a charity to support, this has my vote as the charity of choice, hope you can help. I have two beautiful daughters, my first born is a Medical Dr. specializinng in geriatrics (care of the elderly) my second born is currently attending the University Of Alberta in Edmonton and is looking towards obtaining her Masters Degree after obtaining her Bachelors Degree in Education. They have both worked very hard and the entire family is extremely proud. I have one granddaughter who of course to Grandma is the best and certainly is my closest link to true non-stop-energy! The photograph is of her of course as she is much more beautiful than her Grandma (AKA Balla) My biggest hobby is, yep, you guessed it, reading. Second to books, is a love to cook, and enjoy my large cookbook collection, which I am working on updating on my shelf, it is slow going and a huge undertaking I have to admit! I enjoy suspense and true crime among other genres. I am a veteran fan of Stephen King, and more recently Greg Iles. I also enjoy stories written by Dean Koontz (more his older books, although recently I have noticed he is getting back to his old form after seeing his talent slipping for quite some time) I enjoy a good mystery on occasion, as well as autobiographies if I find intriguing characters that interest me. I welcome new friends, so email me anytime, as well as sending me some suggestions of great books & authors you enjoy. Until then, HAPPY READING FRIENDS!
