computer mishaps

I have been going through withdrawls because I'm without a computer. I've gone to the library twice and now I'm on Wayne's computer that has an outdated cord with a short in it. I'm typing ever so carefully so as not to disturb the cord.
I will say that I truly miss conversing with my friends. Being isolated in this universe without my computer really stinks. Hope my computer is fixed soon. I feel so out of the loop it isn't funny.
love ya, justme

I had so much fun at the girls night out. I must say that by the time we decided to get together, I was exhausted from the day. I would like to do a day trip next time. Although that may prove to be slightly difficult, what, with all the kids in school. It's great to be rested before hanging with the girls.
I haven't laughed so hard for a very long time. By the way, my teens are not attending school dances. Not now. After what I heard, I think I'll encourage sports or church dances instead.
love ya, justme
p.s. It may be a while before I post...no computer at home right now.

Chocolate...the pure love of friendship

Chocolate, creamy ice-cream, sunny days, happy days, good-hair days, good night sleep and fabulous friends! All things we can never have enough of. Speaking to the girls out there, yes, I know that love, kindness and charity are on this list, but those are part of the package. Especially with good friends and chocolate. Because, a good friend brings chocolate (kindness) , right! And that gift of chocolate makes us feel all warm and fuzzy(love) inside. And the friend who received the chocolate, would, of course want to share (charity). So, without saying, but saying it anyway, good friends and chocolate are synonymous. So, to all my wonderful friends, thanks girls!

Good Ol' Days...

I love black and white photos. They have such a nostalgic presence. I love these pictures from the girls, they were taken years ago and still tug at my heart. I'm so gonna miss these times with my "little," children. Why, oh why do they have to grow up, I know...to make me feel old! It is true what I've always said..."Kids keep you young," simply because they teach us to relish in the small and simple joys of life. After all, if a person can find joy in the cardboard box their Christmas toys came in, I do believe we should pay attention to their outlook on life.
These pictures where taken when the girls felt the urge to climb a tree and did it. How simple.

I remember those years of tree climbing, branch swinging, tree-house making (of sorts). Of my most favorite memories, it would have to be of great-grandma Bone. Being in her presence was similar to being in the presence of an angel. Her silver-white hair was silky and soft. She was always adorned in an apron with faint floral prints of yellow and blue. And her hugs were equally as sweet as the ice-cream she'd dish up from the deep freeze in her kitchen. Her remedy to life's problems was, work!

I loved the swimming hole behind her house, and the sweet, simplicity of her home. For some reason, when I think of her I want to cry...Oh my gosh, I am crying. I often wonder why the memories of her, tug at my heart so. We would visit now and again when I was a child, but never frequent enough for me. She's since passed,(when I was twelve) but I still feel her presence, especially when I reminisce and contemplate things of life and most often when I write.
Love ya, justmom

If you can...

It's all mine...2009! Yeah, babey!!! I'm having writers block so, I really have nothing more to say. Sorry! Have a good one. Naaaaaaaaaaaah! Just kidding. I've been doing dishes so long at the sink that my fingers look similar to day-old french fries. Eww! I just want everyone to know in regards to your goals for this year, that...
If you can think it...it was inspiration,
If you can create it...it was a gift,
If you use that gift of inspiration to it's fullest measure, you've just found your very own personal talent. Use it!
Love ya, justme

Happy New Year!
