  • Sick Again!

    Monday, September 21, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    Here I go again. I am once again running a temp, and have a sore throat and tons of body aches and pains. The blessing is, is it does not seem to be settling in my lungs. (As we all know, that is our weakest point) I am feeling pretty rotten. Have pretty much slept since the afternoon of the wedding. WHICH...was wonderful. The groom cried and laughed, (cus he was embarrassed for crying) He is an ...

    Tuesday, April 14, 2009 | A Tragic story

Last January he had a stroke & we thought we were going to lose him then.  But he pulled through to see his first grandchild born, they were twins.  But then he took a turn for the...

  • I Love You Sweetheart

    Friday, November 14, 2008

    This is for my Dad... 
    I REMEMBER
    Around and around we twirl
    As I perch on his broad shoulders,
    And grab his hair with both hands
    …white knuckled with gleeful terror.
    He tightly grasps my legs against his chest
    With his mitten sized hands.
    I throw my head back, long hair blowing through the air.
    Hardly able to catch my breath,
    We twirl and twirl and he lets out
    Loud guffaws of glee, saying&hel...

  • Incomprehensable behavior.........

    Sunday, September 28, 2008 | A Tragic story

    I had an experience yesterday which will never be forgotten by me or any other person that was there and witnessed it like myself. A relative of my husband's wife departed this life during the week. People die everyday of the week, of course, but the fact that she was only 44 made it a tragedy. The last time I saw her was when I went to her wedding a few years ago. It seems that about 6 month...
