About Me
Female, 55. Live alone. Research Statistician, Ph. D. Sociology. Life is slowing down, I hope. My survey research days are over. I am officially retired. I now live in a retirement community near my sister in Washington State. I lucked out and found a place that is set-up for people with disabilities. Me, sisters on a trip to Miami Beach in long bio. I am on the right.
