MY STORY

by BEATE ROCKER
(FORT LEE NJ USA)

I AM 85 YEARS YOUNG, AND HAVE MY COMPUTER FOR 3 YEAR WHEN MY HUSBAND DIED. I HAD SOME EXPERIENCE THROUGH THE WEBTV WHICH WAS VERY FASHIONABLE A SHORT TIME. VERY EASY TO LEARN MADE MANY FRIENDS WHO SLOWLY CHANGED OVER TO COMPUTER....

AFTER MY HUSBAND DIED, I TOO MADE THIS CHANGE. THERE ARE MANY THINGS I STILL DO NOT UNDERSTAND, BUT I GET BY.

STILL HAVE MY OLD FRIENDS FROM THE WEB, AND I WOULD NOT MIND TO HAVE MORE.....

I WAS BORN IN VIENNA AUSTRIA LOST MY FAMILY IN THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS. I WAS ABLE TO GO TO ENGLAND, WHERE I MARRIED AT A YOUNG AGE, AND MADE MY OWN FAMILY.

I HAVE NOW 5 GREAT GRANDCHILDREN AND HOPING FOR MORE?...OF COURSE, THERE IS MORE TO 'MY STORY, LIVING IN ENGLAND FOR 20 YEARS,THE "WAR YEARS" AND MOVING TO AMERICA......

SINCERELY BEATER ROCKER

Am I really old?
by: Ann

Its hard for me to grasp the idea of old age.. I am still traveling the USA working in Nascar with my husband. I still skydive, swim long distances, and hike when I have time.

A few years ago I had a facelift and so now people tell me I look like I am in my fifties. So they say..lol. I am 74 years old & do not look forward to leaving the earth unless I could have a huge revelation about the afterlife.

I am a believer and know God is good. I would love to travel to the islands.. places luke BoraBora etc. My background is in nursing and psychology. I like to share others spiritual experiences and love adventure. I just gave my traveling Australian sugar gliders to my daughter.

Now I am traveling with a shih tzu puppy named Woof Fi. His first Nascar showc is tomorrow and I pray he will handle it well. Lol.

I loved reading your post, and it sounds like you might be someone I'd like to be friends with. I love learning about the 30's and 40's. I love old movies, Benny Goodman, living and working in the country (which I don't do, but used to). I love to cook, especially bake. If you do too, I would love to exchange recipes with you.

I'd like to believe that I'm a good person, honest, with a good sense of humor, though when you first meet me I am very shy. I believe in God. I love flowers, I love old movies, I have two dogs (they're great!!), I love to fish, but can't anymore. I still have a 96 year old aunt, who I go to see once a week, and we sit and talk about everything, and anything for 2 hours (I love it). I hope you can e-mail me. If you decide to, my e-mail address is...
