My husband, Arturo, was never jealous of my infatuation with Frank. I will always love him for that. I have two daughters and three grandchildren, who I adore. I always enjoy having them over for a good 'ole root beer float and a nice cocktail for me!

I would love to meet Frank Sinatra. Although I admired him for decades, and have seen him perform many times, I was never able to meet him and have an actual conversation with this singing legend. I have a large collection of Frank Sinatra memorabilia, including one of his fedoras I purchased on eBay. It was worth every penny.

I'm always up for a round of tennis with the girls! Plus, I love to travel! There is so much to explore and so much fun to be had. Why stay at home when you can get out and see the world? I just love hopping on a plane and ending up in a different place by sunset! It's just me and my fanny pack out exploring this amazing planet! I also love to garden. Arturo really got me interested in it. He would bring me flowers a lot when we were dating, and I loved having them in the house so much, that began to grow them after we got married. And even though he is gone, the fragrant smell of the daisies remind me of him.

I really love the Harry Potter books. My granddaughter got me into them, and I have fallen in love them. I am so disappointed that they are over. It was a very sad day when I closed Deathly Hallows.

Frank Sinatra! He sings beautifully. I have all of his albums and I listen to them constantly. My granddaughter also introduced me to a young man named Michael Buble or something. His style is similar to Frank's, (he is no where near as talented) but he can sing, too. Anyone who resembles Frank in this world of rap gets a gold star in my book!

The Indiana Jones movies are my favorite. Arturo really loved their action and suspense, but I didn't mind watching it because Harrison Ford wasn't too hard on the eyes, if you catch my drift. And of course, The Man with the Golden Arm. Frank was really great in that movie. He can sing like a bird. but he can act, too. What a multi-talented man!

24 is a great show, and that Jack Bauer! Whew! What can I say? He can hold a gun and saves the world. What more could a woman ask for? I also really enjoy Dancing with Stars. Some of those stars really know how to dance! I wish I could get out there, too. It looks like so much fun!

I love to garden. The smell of fresh flowers reminds me of my husband and makes the house smell wonderful. I usually spend at least an hour in my garden everyday, whether I'm working or just sitting on the bench with a book in my hand, taking in the fresh air.
