Reflections of My Life

I know what hell is. When I escaped with my children from the devil's clutches, I was determined I would make the rest of my life a heaven on earth.

I am a seventy-year young lady with a great sense of humour. I like meeting people, love animals, painting and drawing, writing poetry and short stories. I have a great imagination, which I exploit in my fictional stories, but in reality, my extraordinary life makes my non-fiction just as good!!

I love creating and making teddy bears, collecting antiques, and spending time with the grandchildren and great grandchildren and I am happy with myself. I have had a wonderful life; even the bad times let me appreciate the good. I love dressing up in fancy dress. Before I had my triple heart by-pass the weekends would find me out with an old school friend, climbing mountains, walking and painting all around the beautiful places in bonnie Scotland.

Now, although my mind is still younger than springtime, my body is telling me to slow down and now I am enjoying writing and reflecting on a life I wouldn't want to change a minute of.
