This was inspired after my annual Las Vegas visit where I joined my brother and twin nieces. I wrote it to tell my nieces to live their lives fully.
SEIZE THE DAY
Your life’s motto should be “Seize the Day!”
There’ll be unexpected changes along the way
Start right now to make your list
Of all the things you don’t want to miss
Seems the young and strong never
Realize that it won’t last forever
On your list put places you want to see
Alas, some will just never be
Each day make plans for lots of fun
And you won’t regret what you’ve never done
Life is short so squeeze it
Here’s a new day, LET’S SEIZE IT!

About Me
- Sue Raymer Woods
- I was born in Owensboro Kentucky in 1939. When I was one, we moved to Indianapolis Indiana. I graduated from Thomas Carr Howe High School in 1957, and keep in touch daily with classmates through their website. I studied Accounting at Indiana University. In 1961, I married Philip A. Woods; we divorced in 1967. In 1969 I moved to San Francisco. In 1980, I was proud to be selected as a Reagan delegate to the RNC. I was re-elected in June 2008 to my 5th term as a member of the San Francisco Republican Party. I'm honored to have been selected aa a John McCain delegate to the 2008 RNC, but decided not to attend due to my disabilities. I live in SF's Castro area with my basset hound, Molly. She is the 4th in a series of bassets who have been my dear friends. In 2002, I suffered a severe stroke that left me disabled in my left limbs. With the help of prayer, I am gradually recovering. After retiring in 2004, I enrolled in writing classes at Osher Life Long Learning Institute (O.L.L.I.), see link. In addition to writing my memoirs, I am writing poetry and creating a family video.
