About

I am just an ordinary 58 year old woman having extraordinary fun!  My fun right now includes:

  • barefoot and minimalist running, see funfitnessafter50.com
  • swimming and having a new pool in my back yard, see funfitnessafter50.com
  • triathlon training and learning not to be terrified on a bike, see funfitnessafter50.com
  • gardening on my acre and in my greenhouse, (see dailyimprovisations.com)
  • discovering how to be a grandma (going by the grandma name of “Lulu”),
  • sewing, but never completely following the instructions (mostly dailyimprovisations.com, unless a project is particularly related to another)
  • studying Mandarin Chinese, see funlearningchinese.com
  • exploring the concepts of political freedom and responsibility ( thehappylibertarian.com)
  • learning about the stock market, economics, and accounting (even though it leads to ever increasing frustration with the government), (currently dailyimprovisations.com, but thinking about moving this to thehappylibertarian.com)
  • non-institutional Christian fellowship, (over at biblenewspress.com)
  • food storage and cooking (also on dailyimprovisations.com)
  • raising chickens in spite of the predators (dailyimprovisations.com)
  • occasional traveling, (dailyimprovisations.com or funfitnessafter50.com, depending on the level of adventure!)
  • and, of course, I enjoy writing!

My husband and I have graduated from raising our seven children to adulthood; now we can enjoy family life in a whole different way.  I attempt to have a flexible routine, well peppered with daily improvisations because, although I like to plan, there is nothing like living life now! disclosures
