I'm past middle age, and I love all your books. I relisten to them all the time. Comfort listens. My father (born 1912) was a big sci-fi aficionado, and was instrumental in getting me into it. I did start with fantasy, tho (Andre Norton's Witch World series), but then branched into Heinlein.

I've never owned a house all by myself, and I'll be 70 in January. Congratulations, Athena! And I love the style. This would be my choice, too. Can we see any pics of the inside (before you moved in, of course. I just want to see the layout).

When I was a teenager, my parents planted a 20 foot row of tomatoes in the garden. She was canning forever, lol. We had homemade tomato sauce to make spaghetti bolognese with. Commercial sauce just ain't the same.

Yeah, I turned on Blazing Saddles for my then 8 and 11 yr olds, then had to stop it to explain the parody of racism and how my 11 yo son couldn't say the N word, ever. I did a lot of education that day!

My mother told me to read Stranger in a Strange Land, and she was NOT a sci-fi fan like my dad. When I finally did, I understood.

Don't remember my 1st sci-fi book. My father tried to introduce me to it, and settled on recommending Andre Norton. I read the Witch World series first. My favorite book is The Door Into Summer, by Heinlein.

When I was a kid, I wante a white French provincial bedroom set with a canopy bed. I never got it, but with S&H Green stamps, I did get a French tole painted (white with gold) bedside lamp. Had it for years.

I ditched typing class my senior year of high school so I could take German I. Along with my 2nd year of French. I'd already taken 4th yr Spanish. Later, I found I actually needed to know how to type, so took a night class. We used electric typewriters.
