Coos

I used to be a 'busy bee' multitasking and independent woman, 60 years now, which sounds very old for somebody who thinks to have a young mind. I am living happily together with a nice and caring man. I am mother of two fantastic children ( 29 and 21 ) and besides that there are the 2 addult children of my partner, so I have a nice and growing family: 4 kids, 3 kids in law and my daughters boyfriend, even the first grandchildren: a grandson of his son and a granddaughter from my son. It feels really special to be a grandmother and also to see your son as a father.
Since a first hip-operation april 2007 I am rather disabled, not capable to work and at home with lots of pain and medication.
A 2nd operation did not bring the solution I hoped for, so I am still at home and rather limited in a boring life. There is a positive side too: the fact that I cannot work at the moment brought me the possibility to move (febr. 2011) from the centre of the big city of Rotterdam to a small town nearby the North sea, we feel privileged and we really enjoy our new house, the garden and the proximity of the sea and the beach. Almost every day I go to watch the sea, which I like in all its shapes, depending on the weather.
With my postcrossing membership, I can look forward to a little outside-world in my mailbox; many cards, no matter what kind of image, above all I appreciate the fact of sending me a greeting and cause me a smile. Thanks in anticipation.
Last but not least: sending as well as receiving a postcrossing-card gives me a positive feeling of being in touch with the whole world.
So, I am looking forward to your card and e-mails are welcome too.
