I am trying to figure out how to post my Christmas letter and then I will try to see if I get enough responses from other cultures to continue posting. I have a few loyal followers on Blogger but I would like about 10 more from around the world.  I WANT to understand                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

other cultures and share mine in daily experiences.  My Christmas letter is almost ready to post, but I need to do the editor thing of waiting 24 hours to edit one's own writing before publishing.

I am thinking of coming back to Blogger

It has been a year of grief.  My husband of 50 years is gone.  I can't stopping gasping with the grief of it.  But the gasps happen less often.  I just started a Christmas letter and thought I could use it as a re-introduction to doing blogs again.  I have been missing my blog friends in Nepal and Australia and England and Florida and Idaho and.....and ....and...      I love learning about how you spend your time during your days inside your own cultures.  If you remember me from a year and a half ago, let me know.  I am a fifth generation Canadian and don't feel the need to say Irish/Canadian any more.     Nursing a husband through the pains and humiliations of cancer is not easy and I am now ready to forge ahead.  Maybe.  Aanother friend said I would get more responses at .......  However I know my way around this site now.  , I will not do Facebook.  I will not do Twitter.  I am not in to writing to more than 10-20 bloggers.  I just want to get a taste of other folks' cultures.  And after all that has descended on creation this last month,,,,,,maybe we need to underrstand each other better.  Here is my little Casino Royale...I sold the big rig as I didn't need the space in it and couldn't manouver it with confidence.

I will need to figure out how to update my account info.
