Hi, we're Ann and all (Aynetal3). We are 58-years and am a Multiple. We have three adult sons and their families and am in a 23-year relationship with our best friend Rich. We have in our home Dakota, our 5-year old collie/golden retriever service dog, and Missy our 19-year old black kitty. Oh, and we keep our psychiatrist Dr. Marvin in business ;) We had been studying at a Master's level Educational Psychology and Adult Education - e-learning, technology and design. We enjoy a strong interest in Self-Regulation and Multiplicity/Dissociation (DID, but w/o so much disorder). We do a lot of curating through reading and writing, and we utilize Word, Mindmapping, Evernote, a few favorite books, and social media (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Speakerdeck, and Learnist). We believe in the power of the BLOG and "all of our" ability to validate People, especially through sharing conversation, video, and art/images.

Dedicated to Myrtle T.


This blog is dedicated to a wonderful woman, Myrtle T. She is my grandma. We will be recording conversations with her as we explore her life. Our resource for this will be a book "Recording Your Family History," by William Fletcher. We've been talking to my Grandma (We=I'm a multiple so "we" literally is just a one bodied person) for a while now about family history. Periodically, stories will come up, but I feel that I am missing them because of my moderate impairment in memory recall. My Grandma and us have talked about her aging and that soon enough it is going to be her time. She is 98 years old and she feels that most of her good friends have already gone on. I'm so scared of never hearing her voice again. The time for this project has to start now. I have to be strong to meet the wonder of my Grandmother's life. This is the first video recording her history and thoughts. This one exactly starts the process of starting the process.

Please enjoy.

This is my Grandma's and my first video
