LINDA50

Ok, so I was 50 when I joined the site and Linda was already taken. I don't know if I am the 50th Linda to join the site, but then it was a really popular name.

I have a son, Nick who is living with me. He helps me with the house and drives me around. He has a dog, Baby is loads of fun, Nick too.

I just recently got a little Chihuahua, Nick found her. The owners were going to take her to pound or even worse dump her. So he brought her home for me. Her name is Sweet Pea.

I live in the Pacific Northwest in Washington state. We get lots of rain and yes the bluest skies you will ever see. If you are willing to stick around enough for those few days. We are surrounded by mountains and water.

I have lived in my little house for 27 years. I am lucky enough to have a basement that is laundry room, sewing room, craft room and workshop. It was plenty of space many years ago.

Rock and Roll. With a little bit of country, blues, classical and Enya thrown in.

Lots of them could never possible list all my favorites. Some that I have read over and over;

Lord of the Rings
