MARILYNCM, 71
Just turned 71 & I'm not as stunned as when I turned 70. Maybe it just takes some getting used to - being in this decade of life. I think I'm 71 going on, maybe, 55, since most of my friends are around that age - okay, maybe 60. I pretty much look like my posted pics but with more wrinkles that mercifully don't show up on the photos.
My passion is working with senior rescue dogs, fostering & finding homes for the castaways who find themselves in a tough spot. I volunteer with Minnesota Voters for Animal Protection & my politics are liberal. Interests are eclectic & include long daily walks with my resident dog, Maggie, cooking and eating great food with, or without, friends, good conversation, exploring the arts & reading an engaging book. My continuing work as a psychotherapist is important to me but am willing to relocate - or maybe 6 mos here and 6 mos there.
I have traveled extensively and lived overseas twice - Beirut & Athens. My literary tastes run to mysteries, an occasional political thriller, historical novels & I especially enjoyed "Wild" by Cheryl Strayed - her story of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail.
