My name is Mary Brooks Lindsay. I am happily the mother of two grown daughters and grandmother to two gorgeous (of course) baby boys. I was born, raised and schooled in NE Ohio. I adopted FL and called it home for 35 years. For the time being I am living the life in the glorious Napa Valley The title of my blog (if I'm doing this right) is Mental Housekeeping. Most of the time I write out my perception of situations in order to discover how I really feel. The whole point is to defrag my brain and make room for really important stuff. I'll let you know what that means when I figure it out. Oh ...and thanks for your time.
