Living In My Mother’s Reality

I'm a coal miner's daughter, and proud of my Appalachian heritage. Writing and reading are my passions. I'm a retired barber, loyal friend, and wife. I prefer the mountains but retired to the coast. My ah-ha moment came once I realized a milder climate is kinder to my aging body and senses. My mini-Goldendoodle and two cats are pretty good at hanging out with me while I write. They don't advise or criticize. And for that, I am grateful. I'm an introvert but can switch to being an extravert should the need arise. (Truthfully, given the choice, I'd rather not.) Every day, I pray for guidance and strength. Meandering through life, ain't easy; it's a gift worth cherishing and exploring! View all posts by hillbillycollegegirl
