... a buried in unfinished projects, fallen off the other side of sixty, happily married lady who is never bored ...  i would like email and snail mail  penpals who love to write or would like to exchange postcards. If there is a patient French speaker who would like to write, I would be very appreciative.

I would love to correspond with ladies who live in other areas of our world.  It is important to me to write those who live in other countries (and my own), how else to know, despite the seeming differences, we are basically people with the same joys, loves, hopes and struggles.

Gentlemen please note:
I am here primarily for language exchange. French/English: Please do not contact me for another purpose or  call me beautiful, sexy, your favourite lady, new beloved or whatever. I do not know you and if this is how you introduce yourself, I don't care to. Sorry to be so blunt, but I will NOT respond to such messages.

I admire those who learn second languages and to see many of you speak several, wow! If someone is interested, I would love the chance to remember my high school French.

Interest in all things living: dogs, cats, canaries, fish, plants and gardening - I have been known to take my composting worm bin on holidays...
Interest in all things creative: needlework, sewing, quilting, cross-stitch, knitting, crochet, drawing, piano
Interest in all things computer-ish: number one love - Debian Linux at the moment
Interest in the outdoors: photography, camping, walking, and fighting off mosquitoes
Interest in all things food: cooking, baking trying new recipes, chocolate, coffee, tea AND eating ;-)

Every thing from Barogue to the Blues with Classic Rock to round things off.

not a fan
