- I'm 50, live in Austin, Texas but am a Northern California native and my heart still belongs there. I spend a lot of my time quilting, cooking, reading and working on my house. I've been keeping track for about ten years of all the books that I read. I had been writing comments but life got in the way and I need to start doing that again.

脾氣與嘴巴不好，就算心地再好，也不算好人~~~ ....................................................
你不能決定生命的長度，但你可以控制它的寬度................................................................
不要把生命看得太嚴肅，反正我們不會活著離開。..................................................................
一棵樹除非在春天開了花，否則難望在秋天結果。....................................................................
生活總是起起伏伏，心情要保持快樂才好哦！！.................................................................
