I didn't even want Jim when he ran across my radar. When we became
friendly it was a surprise because I was possible even more hard-nosed
than I am now.

Jim was sort of a city boy, except he had skills and had lived in
rural areas (though as a city person).

Jim had a cat. He really liked cats. Me, not so much. But he learned
about other animals tolerably well.

Thank you for thinking I'm smart. It's a tribute that even my family
does. People at work think I'm really smart, but nobody knows you like
your family. And even they concede that I'm smart.... and ....ta
da.....really sensible. Which shows what you can hide from the family.

Sometimes I'm amazed that Jim and I found each other because we were
so eminently suited for one another -- makes me believe in
reincarnation. Maybe we were partners of some kind in a previous life.
Or siblings. Or something.

Marie, who misses having someone smart to hash and rehash the days
news with (which is why I'm here and a couple of other lists sort of
like this)
