Hi everyone, my name is Marie. As you can see by my age, I am was not even yet a glimmer in my father's eye when big band and swing were the rage. I just find the music wonderful and the dancing so much fun. Not like what we have today, even though I do enjoy music of all kinds.
I am married and my hubby and I have one great son. We live in Texas and we also lived in Chula Vista, California for a time.
Ummm, I think that's about it for the about me section.
Looking forward to making new friends
TURN ON'S
Good Music, Good Books, Good Food and Good Friends!
Cuddling with my sweetheart hubby and all that good stuff.
TURN OFF'S
I am so turned off at what is currently happening in this great country of ours. It makes me so sad and so mad. But I try to keep a smile because there is still so much beauty in the world. I love to laugh and people who don't have a sense of fun or humor turn me off. Cheaters and liars are horrible.
Mean people and bullies.
Good morning. Hope you enjoyed your week-end past. I am content with the events in mine. We quietly celebrated 2 family birthdays and Armed Forces Day. Nice time. This week will bring folks into town from all over for the traditional Memorial Day festivities. Campers and musicians move in early to save a space for their tents and rv's. The music festival actually begins on the 28th, but some music happens spontaneously at some of the campsites. Some of the snobbier people in town will avoid the event because of what they call the "hippie" element, while others are attracted more because of it. I think you either like folk and other forms of non-traditional music or you don't. The heat is usually what keeps me away, and work, but sometimes I see some well know names among the talent listings. My husband will have a few extra days free from work, but I'll be working my usual schedule. We originally hoped to attend a nephew's graduation, but those plans had to be cancelled. No together time for travel. Also, hot here with humidity levels high. Rain is spotty, but remains in the forecast for the entire week. Days are rather uncomfortabe, but evenings and nights are very pleasant. A neighboring city usually has military parade and Memorial Day salutes. I'd be more inclined to try to attend these functions, and certainly have on occasion. Not likely this year, however. We used to have a huge arts and crafts event over the Memorial Day week-end. I loved it, but the city polticians did away with it, saying it was losing money. I regret that everything seems to come down to the flow of money. ~ shakes head~ Anyway, that's life here...whatever your holiday week brings...hope you have some fun. ~ Marcia
