- Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose
I am a retired school teacher who lives in the only "senior cooperative" in the entire state of Washington. I'm adjusting to a new miniature schnauzer named Gretchen. I"m also adjusting to being unable to read as much as I have historically read. Nonetheless, I still love LT and visit here every morning.
There is a great thread which helps me look like I know something cool: http://www.librarything.com/topic/35356#t - Location
