Now, here's a news story I like. A 95-year-old Kansas woman, Nola Ochs, is getting her college degree this spring, making her the world's oldest college graduate (click on the link to see her story). She's really an inspiration and I wish her well. I hope I am doing lots of wonderful stuff when I am 95, too!
Another great news story is that Stephen Hawking has taken his zero-g flight and had a wonderful time. You can see it here:
Some good things to inspire a day...gives me a kick in the behind to get out and work on the book...(and gives me another nudge when I think I am too achy from fibromyalgia to move my body)...I'll be enjoying the gorgeous Santa Cruz day today, doing a coffeehouse crawl with laptop and notebooks.
My name is Joan McMillan and this blog is, as Emily Dickinson says, "my letter to the world." I am currently working on a nonfiction book about the murder of a young woman, Asha Veil, born Joanna Dragunowicz, and her unborn daughter, Anina, on September 9, 2006. My book is meant to honor her life and illuminate the need to create a safer world for women and children.
