Quick Comment




Reminder:
Just wanted to thank whomever the anonymous commenters are, and to urge all blog readers to click on the comments listed at the end of each post. Valuable tips are being written by other readers, and I hope you all are aware of them. I also hope that many more of you will feel free to add your strategies, tips, suggestions, and advice, whether you identify yourself or not. My intent all along was to get the ball rolling and hope that many more of you seasoned grandparents would chime in on the different topics. Also, if there is a topic you would like addressed, please do not hesitate to ask.
On the top lefthand corner of the blog is a link called "Atlantic Avenue". This is written by a talented writer whom I first met in the role of parent of one of my most delightful students. Try accessing her as I think you will find her writing on many and varied topics quite literate and incredibly entertaining.
I hope to get into a pattern of posting regularly each week, but I beg your indulgence as I try to stabilize my life into something more predictable.....or not!
