My Avatar

I chose Cate Blanchett’s image as my avatar because of her film role as Queen Elizabeth I. “Jeruba” is an imaginary warrior queen. However, Cate’s images in character are grim-looking; I prefer a smile. I never really intended to assume the face of a glamorous actress who does not resemble me, but there it is.

Just randomly popping in to say hi. I still lurk from time to time, I just rarely post. Take care.

Thanks for your comments. In answer to what about Hubby, he is currently working 12 hours a day on a special project that has been months in the making. I try not to bother him with the daily household matters.
