Good Morning, Bonnie,
Today is Dad's birthday. He would've been 109!
Can you believe it? That means that we have 109-year old
genes in us! Have you ever thought of it that way?
Wow. I'm amazed.
Something unusual, yet quite pleasant, happened
already to me this morning. As you know, I was a
career counselor for many years (18 to be exact).
And, today, I received something online that tells me when
authors will be giving talks in town. Keeps me abreast
of current books I may be interested in and also of
local and national writers.
Well, today, who do I see on the list? None other than
a former "client" of mine!
Yes. Karen Simpson came to me, for a long time, many years ago.
And, it was I who told her about the Historic Preservation Program at
Eastern Mich. Univ. In reading her bio, note that she earned a master's
degree from that program! I knew she was planning to enroll in the
program (at my suggestion) when she was coming to see me.
However, she has since gone on to get 2 more degrees!
One, in animal husbandry, from MSU. So, she undoubtedly
also loves animals. I'm so glad to learn of her success and plan
to go see her tomorrow evening at Nicola's Books here in town.
We'll have a little reunion. Maybe she'll turn into a friend.
Surely I'll learn more about her (and, perhaps, myself).
All on Dad's birthday.
Think he's still watching us from the stars above. . . .?
Luv,
PEP
