Today I set out on a new adventure.  I only wonder why I waited so long?  I am 84 years old. Widowed, mother of four children of whom I am very proud.  Grandmother of four bright
grandchildren making their mark in this confusing world of today.  Great Grandmother of two
charming little boys.
I am a retired Veterinary Technician-a job I hated becoming too old to participate in.  I was a
licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator in the state of New York.  Farmer's daughter (dairy farm in Vermont)
4-her and later a 4-H leader when my children were of age to be members..
I am the author of one book , One Dog Night, published last year and currently available on Amazon,
Barnes and Noble or through your local bookstore.  I have been writing since I was 10 years old.
I have had animals around me all my life -cows, goats, horses, hens..-always a dog and a cat. With me now are Hannah, an 11 year old Brittany and Susie, a 6 year old  female kitty.
In this blog I will write about my life with animals.  I will respond to questions sent to my
e mail address: cynthiadaniello@gmail.com or story_teller_34@yahoo.com.
I will also, on occasion, talk about life as a senior.
This is my song.  It does not have to end because I have acquired a substantial number of years!

  7. Hi Cynthia, I am so excited about what you are doing. I just wrote a long comment explaining why this is so important to me, and today in particular. I went to post my comment and clicked on publish and it took me to my sign in for Gmail. I don't know what happened from there because I didn't know what to do next. I think I lost it. So very excited about what you are doing but I will have to get up to speed with how to post a comment. Congratulations. When I have time I will to write again and share what I originally wanted to share. Maybe I can get this to post - I'll try.

I am so looking forward to reading your blogs but I hope Jon keeps putting the link up, I’m only 74 but find technology a little frustrating.

  10. Hello Pauline
    How exciting to hear from someone so far away. Not sure about the wisdom, but I hope to just "talk" about those wonderful creatures
    who have shared my life.
    Thanks for writing.

  11. Hello from Sweden. Read about your blog on John Katz's blog and I'm curious on your lifelong work with animals and it would also be interesting to know about your life in general. Life as a senior has it's moments ;-) (and I guess you know about that also) Take care.

  13. Cynthia, congratulations on getting your blog up and running. You are remarkable in so many ways, and at 84 it feels like you're just getting started. i can testify to your broad and deep knowledge of animals, from horses to dogs and cats, and your valuable experience working as a vet tech for more than 30 years. I so look forward to reading your blog and also reading about your life and philosophy. I'm grateful I got to meet you via "Talking To Animals.." The show is in hiatus right now, but we will keep our dialogue going. Much respect and admiration to you.. Jon

  23. I am excited about your blog & your success in setting it up. I am a little less than 10 years younger than you, retired from work in pediatrics & live on a cattle farm in Georgia. I am not so good at the computer stuff, so I applaud your efforts!! Keep it going & I look forward to reading of your success with the "management". Animals are important at all stages of our lives. Thanks. Mary Ann Cauthen
