I'm a newcomer to your blog, thanks to the BlogFrog community leader program; you're not on my list, but my other blogging half ('Ethel') is taking care of those, and I'm here because I happened upon it the other night (thanks to Blog Hop).

Before I get either of us too much more confused(!), I, too, have an angel baby. Jeffrey was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and earned his wings at 5-1/2 months.

I'm married (35 years!), and we also have 2 college 'kids,' Matthew and Katie. We live in Jefferson, NC.

Can't get any radio stations where we live. Can't remember hobbies, except that I used to read and do like to work in the yard. I'm not sure the yard likes it, though!

I love colors, period!

Purchase something for myself? Way too many bills to think about that :)

I look forward to snooping more on your blog when I have a little time!

Lucy

PS - I don't think any of these follows the order of your questions. Maybe I should mention I have menopausal ADD :)
