Each and Every Day

Yesterday was a day of celebration. Celebration of my favorite brother in law going to heaven. Today is the celebration of my father going to heaven. I know we are suppose to celebrate and it would be terrible and selfish to have them here sick and suffering. I still miss them so much. They left behind many lessons, memories, and lots of love in our hearts. I didn't really think about it until yesterday that when a person in our lives leaves, a part of us leaves too and we have to adjust our lives to accommodate the person that is missing. I try so hard to be a part of my families lives, and their families, extended families & friends. I don't want to say "I wish" if I would loose one of them. I have a very deep love for each and everyone of them.

Bob White!........Quail.

New babies will be released into the National Forest and woods in local areas, these babies will leave home at 10 weeks...You really can't tell but take your thumb and look at it...its the size of these babies. Quail is almost gone here in Virginia, due to the enviroment. Tearing forest for housing, and businesses, which gets rid of some bugs, worms Quail, and other birds. So far there has been 259 hatched out. Wouldn't you like to take a walk in the woods and here the faint call ......"BOB WHITE....BOB WHITE". I would!

Well here I finally sit and I am able to bla, bla, bla...mmm I am trying be calm.............clear my mind (what is left of it)..........deep breath!.....OH CRAP still nothing I think anyone wants to hear....shoot. Ok...here it goes

OH well its a start.

Summer Happy?

Summer time is suppose to be a happy, do things time. For me not so. Well that is all I have to blogg about today...now that is sad

BEEN A SAD WEEK

After the passing of my friend, I got a phone call from another friend, she works at Bojangles in Daleville....one of her bosses (late 30's) blew his head off! He didn't show up for work for 2 days and then his parents (God Bless them) went to his apt. Needless to say what they found. Its been one heck of a week, I also have a mixed up Rooster...he is in the pen with the ducks....he thinks he can make chick-duck-lets! Gees he is really lost something!.........Now I need to find Mr. Mixup a new home...he is sweet just mixed up!
Got new babies (rescues from a NAKE)....one's name is Bear and the other Peppie....such cuties! 3 wks old . Hope all has a great and peaceful weekend!.

Time is so short................

Sunday I lost a good friend. A friend that use to come over and play with the bunnies when we were kids. After High School as with most we lost touch...then we found each other by mistake 1977.....her husband and Sami's daddy...they worked together at Hatcher. She and her family left and moved to NC. Lost touch again.....2009 February....there she is again, we were getting ready to go to our 35th high school reunion. This has really hit home really hard. She was at the beach with her daughter and 2 beautiful grandchildren. Saturday night she went to bed...Died in her sleep. At this time no one knows why.

It made me stop and think...women my age are so many things...we have worked hard to be: mother, sister, daughter, wife, friend,grandmother, nurse,cook,care taker,home maker, lover, aunt ....stop and think...we try so hard to be it all. I know Harriet is in a better place and she is so happy, but what is hard for me is knowing of the heart ache, sadness, disbelief, and the feeling of helplessness that her family and friends feel.

I pray all will find peace and serenity in God in this time of such a loss.

ANOTHER FUN FILLED WEEKEND
