Today's topic: My Memoir
You don’t have to be a good writer to write your memoir. You don’t even have to have a good memory. I don’t! But after I retired in 2011, I decided to write my memoir.
What prompted this decision is not because I had an especially interesting life. My life was pretty normal. But after my parents died, I realized I didn’t know anything about their lives when they were growing up. And the only thing I knew about my great grandparents were the dates they were born and died. I wish I had known more. So I decided to write about my life so my great great grandchildren could know who I was and what my life was like. Not just the date I was born and the date I died.
I totally enjoyed reliving my memories. It has been a great experience.. And even though I don’t have a good memory, the book is over 300 pages! It’s surprising what you do remember.

Come to join us for our new “Good Morning, Howard!” zoom group. We will be following the new schedule as listed below:
Monday & Wednesday at 9:00 AM
Our goal is to provide Howard County residents an opportunity to come together in a relaxed atmosphere, to meet with others, and to participate in the discussion/activities of Health and Wellness. Our content may include using technology to connect with family and friends, gardening, exercise, music, movies, jokes, popular websites, and healthy diet.
Participation is easy because driving is not required. This social program is for TVIH members and older adults from Howard County. This program was popular in August and is continuing in September.
Volunteers (TVIH members) will take turns to serve as the hosts of the GMH zoom meetings. The hosts will greet the participants, make introductions, and give the feedback/suggestions back to the membership committee.
Most people will join by using their computer, tablet or smartphone. To join, you need a zoom meeting link. The link will be emailed to you after you register.
