Widowed 2009. Have the love of my family and close friends to buoy me when needed. Planning to re-join the work force this year. Hopefully my sister will be visiting from UK with her husband for a holiday - I love my family! Would love to re-visit Scotland some time soon.

Warblings!

First and foremost, English is the only language I speak or understand. (I have a smattering of Schoolgirl French but I can't count that!)
I mean real English, taught at school, honed and refined over the decades; not the text short-speak that offends my eyes. I adore the English Language as it was meant to be.
I read and write Poetry. I have eclectic tastes but the written word is very important to me. Since my years in Primary School it has been this way. I’m happy to admit to this too.
I fell in love with books during my formative years and this love remains a constant in my life.

Now in my 50's, I'm happy to say that I'm not as 'grown up' as my age may sometimes dictate; I hope to remain this way for as long as I'm able.
I love to laugh, I have a sense of the ridiculous I’m happy to admit I have cried a lot too especially over the last 10 months but I won't touch on that any more right now. I'd like to go into that in detail at a later date, my lifestyle right now is confusing and sad in the main with beautiful windows of laughter and love thrown in when despair overwhelms me.

I am fortunate to have close loving family and friends, I have more than I can count on 2 hands, which, in my opinion makes me rich.
Across the miles between Australia, (my home) and Great Britain, (English born) I am truly blessed with so many family members, Aunties and Uncles who still refer to me as ‘Bonnie’ (hence the name) due to the fact that I was a ‘Bonnie’ child, so they tell me! :) Cousins galore, my lovely sister and her family, I won’t bore you with ALL of their names right now I can do that at a later date!

My new Blog! - I didn't even know what a Blog was until recently - I'm high on technology as you can see :) However, with the help of dear Rachael here it is. (I follow her Blog and I’m sure many people will find it interesting and helpful)

With training and patience, I'm hoping it will grow into something of interest for my friends and family, who knows I might even make new friends along the way. That would be wonderful!

I intend to add my travel news as time goes on, with photographs too, (by the time I go on holiday - back to UK I should have it all sussed out and call myself an Expert) ha ha! - Time will tell.

That’s it for today
Tech-Whiz in training -- Bye!
