If I could be more vague I'd write more about people in my life but I hate hurting feelings or making people feel uncomfortable. I've done that before. Unless they're sad songs. Those get finished fast but the mean ones often end up at the back of the bottom drawer and it's probably for the best.
No I got a GED in my 30s. My kids know that I never stop learning and they know I love reading. I have books overflowing everywhere. I am current on today's events and I read the paper every day and we talk about it so they see that appetite.
