As we go through life, we invent the things that make us happy and give meaning to our lives.
Now that I am retired... my life has changed drastically in so many ways.

Several of the nurses I worked with have expressed an interest in learning more about photography and have just purchased new cameras,
so we have decided to form a little club, called the Crazy Women's Photography Club (CWPC).

The prerequisites to joining the club are these:
you must be female, you must own a camera, and you must be crazy... all of which I have achieved, without a doubt, as they can tell you!

So I designed a mug on Café Press with the logo of a camera, sunglasses, a cool drink and a bird flying free.

We have been on several outings together and have had such fun and a lot of laughs.
And when I hear of their busy days at work, I am thankful to be retired and healthy enough to be doing the things I love.

With special thanks to my husband for getting this "portrait" of the beginning of another chapter of my life.
