Carol

If you're reading this, there's a good chance your name is Carol as 3 of my 9 readers have that name. Since one of you had a birthday this week, I thought I could dedicate a post to some of my favorite people with this name. Carol, it implies a woman of a certain age, doesn't it? Definately baby boomer, definately too young to be a grandma, although all three of you have at least one grandchild. Never playing the role of "hippie" yet with a streak of the fringe always trying to sneak out. I've known Carols who have ground her own wheat for bread, slaughtered her own pigs, and sewn their own clothes. 1 Carol introduced me to Suzuki music, 1 to Paul Revere and the Raiders, and I hear 1 is quite a Pink Floyd fan. All three are very fun and great to go to for a conversation, a glass of wine, or a game of cards. And Carol is definately a people person. She can talk for hours, but has a special way of drawing you into the conversation so that you feel it's really more about you than her. On top of it all she has a great sense of humor. Loves to make a joke and can take one too. My world is definately a better place because I know the Carols I do. Thanks for being the wacky, caring, delightful women you are.
