Scrabbler is a 65-year-old female from In the woods, rural western NY state in the United States.
Woodswoman, hiker, nature lover, kayaker, mountain biker, and reader. I also enjoy cross-country skiing, snowshoe trekking, arts & crafts, gardening, and crossword puzzles.
I have been a pediatrician since 1988.
I "stumbled upon" Babble on August 1, 2006 and have been addicted from the start, often to the detriment of housecleaning and sleep.
I have been a house rabbit owner/companion since 1983 yrs, and currently have 2 bunnies: Sir Gulliver Rabbit and Remy Martin. My house is called Rabbitat.

One of my favorite prayers:
The Blessing of Unanswered Prayers
I asked for strength that I might achieve;
I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health that I might do greater things;
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.
I asked for riches that I might be happy;
I was given poverty that I might be wise.
I asked for power that I might have the praise of men;
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life;
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing that I had asked for,
But everything that I had hoped for.
Almost despite myself my unspoken prayers were answered;
I am, among all men, most richly blessed.
