Dear Mary,
Odds are you still have years of good travel years ahead of you. PD
progression varies widely from person to person. I,too, am an ex-teacher and
ex-business owner. I am not an artist! Couldn't draw a straight line with a
ruler and now my writing/drawing hand is none too dextrous. Have fun, enjoy.
