My family came from Mexico to the USA when I was 6 years old.  I wish I had a great story like swimming across the Rio Grande, or dodging the border patrol, but it was all good.  With my devoted parents and 2 brothers, we managed to keep the language and the culture alive, and passed it down to my 4 amazing children.  Viva la raza!

I’ve been blessed.  My life is quite satisfying, and I’m grateful.  My children are grown and are doing very well in their chosen paths.  I’ve learned a lot of stuff in The School of Hard Knocks, Boyfriend School, and Husband School.  I’m still learning.  I am very happily remarried to a person who shares my values and interests, and accepts me with my wrinkles.  I enjoy good health.  I have a roof over my head and food on the table.  I love my work most of the time.  What more could I ask?

I’m enjoying dipping my toes in the Ocean of Blog.  I hope you enjoy my small contribution.
