My favorite place is now gone today. *frowns* I have spent at least once a week or more since I was a baby at this place. It is my home. It is the place where I found that my father was actually just a sperm donor. I found that the man that earned my respect, my fatherly love, and my loyalty belong to my grandfather. It was a place that allowed me to become close to my grandmother. It allowed me to realize that I was her. It was a place that I would always belong and be happy. I was at peace there. Life moves on and in the past severaly years I have lost both. I am grateful that I had such great people in my life. They were fun. They were happy. They were poor people that enjoyed life and each other. I will be forever grateful that I had the honor to know them. The house was a small old house. The land is probably worth more than the house. They always said that as long as it lasts their lifetime that was all it needed to do. As much as I wanted to keep the place, I knew it was impractical. Too much work was needed. Too much money was need to fix up the place. I did not even think the house would sell. A sign was put up for sale by owner. I could not believe the response. In this housing market? Unbelievable. It was a testament to the people who lived there that this was the place to be happy. The closing was today. It is a sad day, but I felt better knowing that the young couple was excited and happy to get started there. They told us it had a happy and loving feel. Something that did not leave them. It had good "spirits and vibes". It will be hard not to go there any more. I feel better knowing that someone is just as happy and excited to be there as my grandparents. It still breaks my heart. I am hoping that the new couple will follow in the tradition of happiness, laughter, and love that I shared at that place. So I say a final farewell and keep the memories close to me.

My friend sent me this e card and it cracked me up!! I just wanted to share the laugh. http://www.hallmark.com/ECardWeb/ECV.jsp?a=4683522552859M214871744Y&product_id=

Marriage (Part I ) Typical macho man married typical good-looking lady, and After the wedding, he laid down the following rules: "I'll be home when I want, if I want and at what time I want -- and I don't expect any hassle from you. I expect a great dinner to be on the table unless I tell you that I won't be home for dinner. I'll go hunting, fishing, boozing, and card-playing When I want with my old buddies, and don't you Give me a hard time about it. Those are my rules. Any comments?" His new bride said: "No, that's fine with me. Just understand that there will be sex Here at seven o'clock every night...whether you're here or not.." (DARN SHE'S GOOD!) ************************************************ Marriage (Part II) Husband and wife had a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th wedding anniversary! The husband yells, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone That reads, 'Here Lies My Wife -- Cold As Ever'!" "Yeah?" she replies. "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone That reads, 'Here Lies My Husband -- Stiff At Last'!" (HE ASKED FOR IT!) ***************************************** Marriage (Par t III) Husband (a doctor) and his wife are having a fight at the breakfast table. Husband gets up in a rage and says, "And you are no Good in bed either," and storms out of the house After some time he realizes he was nasty and Decides to make amends and rings her up. She comes to the phone after many rings, and the irritated husband Says, "What took you so long to answer to the phone?" She says, "I was in bed." "In bed this early, doing what?" "Getting a second opinion!" (YEP, HE HAD THAT COMING, TOO!) ***************************************** Marriage (Part IV) A man has six children and is very proud of his achievement.

Suddenly the man realized that the next day he would need his wife To wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.

Sometimes I look and see nothing but light Sometimes I look and see nothing but darkness My heart is the same in either place Sometimes I fear what I am, what I want Sometimes I know what I am, what I can not have My heart knows both emotions and accepts Sometimes I think I can not let it in. I am too afraid. Sometimes I know that it is not time for me. Sometimes my heart can not decide Sometimes I feel the rain and know my Master is on the way Sometimes I feel the sun and know that I am alone Sometimes my heart cries Sometimes I am strong Sometimes I am weak Sometimes my slave heart is worn on my sleeve

I wanted to apologize for my disapperance. Since the storms, I have had no power, water, and sometimes sewage problems...yuck. Got to love life. *smiles* My mother has been in and out of the hospital. My step son has been problemsome...lol....as all teenagers are....*just kill me* ha ha....Anyhow the stress of everything going on has left me with some problems with myself. Stress has a way of doing that. I am constantly tired and shaking like a leaf. For those of you that know me, I shake anyhow...lol....but now more so than usual. There are times I can not get up and function, but I am working on that. I hope everyone is well and will forgive me for not dropping a line. I am hoping to make myself well in a short period of time, but I did not want to appear rude to anyone. I appreciate any and all comments. Anyone that has visited, I apologize for not getting back to you. I will hopefully be able to meet you at a later date. Be safe. Be well. Thank you for the gifts. Stay happy everyone. *smiles*

Well, it has only been a few days and I miss you. I worry, but you know me. I always worry. Probably will kill me one day. *smiles* I know that there has not been a week or day that has gone by that I have not thought of you with a smile, a tear, or wonder. I belong to you. I will always belong to you. You are my breath, my soul, my heart. You are my strength and my weakness. You are my anger along with my happiness. When I am not with you, I cry. When I am with you I cry. Not the same, but they are the same. You are my darkness and my light. If I lose you now there will be no other. I know I have said it before, but there is no other. There is no other that rules me. There is no other that can destroy me with simple words. Even writing this gives you too much power. I am obsessed. I have never been obsessed before. There is no other. There will be no other. There is only a Master. There is only my love. There is only my friend. There is only my heart. I miss you. I wanted you to know. *smiles*
