GREATEST REGRETS:  I have a few, but then, again, too few to mention.  I did it my way. I HATE those words. I have a lot of things that I would have changed in my relationships, and have several people that I would like to apologize to. I lost five years after my second divorce. I'm amazed that I lived through that time.

FAVORITE RESTAURANTS: Sardi's in NYC. Hundreds of enjoyable hours there! I miss it! Mr. Sardi was great!  Second was the original Cafe Martinique on Paradise Island. Shrimp Dejonge, Beef Wellington, Chocolate Soufflé. YUM! Can't forget Johnny and Johnnie's Italian Restaurant in NYC! I am even a menu item there! Thanks for everything, John! John is gone, but Lenore kept me on the menu. (Sadly, this fine place closed, February '03)

FAVORITE FOODS:  Barbecued Chicken, and almost all Chicken Dishes.  Strawberry Short-cake, anything Chocolate. Fast food, gourmet food. Easily pleased. Not fond of cabbage or cauliflower, but broccoli is okay, and spinach is great!

FAVORITE DRINKS:  Diet Dr. Pepper, Iced Tea, Starbucks House Blend or Expresso, Fruit Juice, or an occasional Margarita or Cuba Libré. Drinking days are long gone. Mostly a glass of wine now and then, champagne on New Year's. This year the bottle lasted five days!

HAPPIEST MOMENTS:  Making people laugh and forget their troubles momentarily.   I lived on my 36 foot Albin Trawler, NAUTALAUTAYAWT  in the Bahamas for a few years, and loved sharing it with family and friends.  Lots of good times there!   Being at Beavers Bend State Park near my home town, Broken Bow, Oklahoma.

LIVING IN COLORADO when my parents were alive, and being able to care for them and travel with them. I am so glad that I got to take them to Yellowstone, The Grand Tetons, Disneyland, up through the redwoods into Oregon, Washington and on into Canada and to Banff, all over B.C. and back into Idaho. All in a travel trailer pulled by an Olds 442! I am truly thankful that I got a chance to repay them a portion of what they gave to me. I could never have done enough to repay them fully. They were the best!

TWO DAUGHTERS brought me the best times, the worst times, the happiest times and ultimately, the saddest times. I remember the best and have forgotten and forgiven the worst.

Now it's their turn.
