I’m newly into my 50’s and enjoying life. Not sure why I decided to start blogging, but thought I’d give it a try. I enjoy scrapbooking, genealogy, digital photography (needs a lot of improvement), home improvement projects, reading,TV, movies and new electronic gadgets. I also enjoy home organizational products (and organization), office supply stores and hardware stores. I’m interested in financial issues, especially those connected to retirement. So my blog will feature flotsom and jetsom on these topics, plus whatever else I’m thinking about.
About the blog picture:
The photos at the top of my blog are of my travels and my parents. From left to right, the Carribbean Ocean on one of my scrapbook cruises, the Leaning Tower of Pisa from my Italy trip, Excaliber and the Luxor from a Las Vegas trip, my Dad at age 3, and my mom at about age 6.

Cool blog, Ms Jackie. When I saw the “5th Decade” after your signature, I thought you had joined another group! I figured it had something to do with turning 50 years old, but didn’t realize it was your very own personal blog. By the way, you don’t have a “scrapbook” catagory on your blog….gonna add it later? Be a great place to put your very own personal review of products, me thinks. Have fun!
Yes, I plan to add Scrapbook, Genealogy, and whatever else strikes my fancy. Thanks for reading!
hey there jackie, liked your blog. I love reading others but haven’t gotten into doing one myself. Maybe someday~ looking forward to this weekend….
