DonnaJean, I am truly sorry about your sister. You have been doing a sweet thing by helping others by sending out her books, etc. Mama will be gone three years this coming May 10th. She passed on Mother's Day. I am the oldest living person in her direct blood line. Only have two of Daddy's sisters living older than I am in his direct blood line.
RE: being a loner... Considering that I am disabled in a wheel chair, I seldom get out of my home in the cold weather. So yes, I guess I have become pretty much a loner except for m y dear husband and my aide....
About all I do now is hand stitching the old fashioned needle and thread way. I also do family genealogy...
