My sister was a tomboy and among the many impressive things she could do in this role is whistle really loud with her fingers! I wanted to be able to do that more than anything else in the whole world. Pathetic, I know, but I was only like 12 yrs old. Anyway, I begged her to teach me. So I’m going to teach you. You will have to concentrate very carefully because it would be advantageous for me to SHOW you but this is as good as it gets. Now, take your right thumb and do the “A-OK” sign with your thumb and middle finger together so you have a circle. With the fingers pointing toward your mouth, press the tip of your tongue back with those fingers and blow. It takes time but eventually you will get it. Instead of the aok sign you can take your two fingers (pointer and middle) of each hand, put ‘em up to your mouth, press against the tip of your tongue and fold it back and blow. Your tongue, BTW, stays in your mouth the whole time, you don’t stick it out.
Good luck and happy whistling. You can do it! It really does take practice but you’ll get it.

I’ve always written. I’ve always loved the written word whether written by me or someone else. I love to type the words, I love to hold a pen or pencil and write. And I love to read. I love words.
I have a thousand stories in my head. I have seen a ton of things, done a ton of things, met a ton of people, and been in a ton of places. Yet I’ve really done nothing, been nowhere, known no one.
I just would really like to write a really good book. A book that peeople would talk about. It doesn’t have to be a classic that will live on through eternity-just a book that makes a statement and people discuss contemporarily when it is published. I would be on talk shows and stuff.
Then I would go back to the business of living in Spain and enjoying life. Because, really, that’s the point. I feel that when people realize that it’s all about joy and it really is all about the moment-I mean, you can plan all you want—whatever big things happen, they happen on their own whether we are prepared for it or not. So what the heck are we waiting for?
Having lived in Spain as a child and a teen, having visited numerous times…I belong there. My soul is there, while my body is in the US. I am currently trying to obtain Italian dual citizenship jure sanguinis which will allow me to…live in Spain!
