Absolutely love to hear about the life of others, and have the gift of a listener. My idea of a great day is something good to read, a little fire going, a little something good cooking on the stove or in the oven, with a touch of fresh air. There is nothing better than a good thriller book. Often I enjoy classical music or easy listening music going softly in the background. I love the art of letter writing and snail mail is considered a gift.
