About Me
- Anne
- I was born in Tulsa, 1956, back then the world was a much bigger place, now I live with a cat named mr.Shark, My eldest son got me this computer and showed me how to write online so that anybody anywhere could read what I write. I tell ya, If I would have had this computer back in 76 everything would have been different.
