I began to browse among bookshelves.
Anybody got a dustcloth?
A workbook I filled out in 1995 was hidden under a pile of magazines.
What an experience it was revisiting myself thirteen years ago.
I was the happy mother of a teen-ager. Today I am the happy mother of a grown-up married lady.
There was several pages that required you to draw pictures of how you saw yourself.
In one I gave myself spinning wheels instead of legs.
And not one section mentions the Internet!
When required to draw what I looked like relaxing I am reading a book and drinking tea.
Interesting.
Bet some of you are wondering what Shelfari is right?
Go to my mine and see - it’s actually quite a lot of fun.

That is pretty cool! Judy Blume, gosh I haven’t read those books in ages. Those were some good reads. Remember Ralph? What book was that from? Can’t remember…
