Great name, cruel and devilish. Was she living up to her name...or is this a name you aptly gave her?

I can't imagine teaching with such a disposition. She could have made you her go-to woman for all sorts of things.

I know people many years younger than you Janice, and they are old.

Anyone who ups and leaves her home country to start anew in what my dad used to call the twilight of your life (sorry about that)is not old.

People are born old. They're boring. They take no risks. They reside in the left-hand margins of risk taking.

Tomorrow we may be dead. So why worry about the number of minutes one has lived?

Concentrate instead on the amazing stories you have created for your grandchildren to be inspired by.

Loved this story. Felt your pain. But I loved that it's something you can now laugh about.
