I'm back, but I'm not sure I'll stay

Hello everyone, it's been awhile, and I thought it was about time (and so did others...lol) that I should write another blog....

Oh, by the way, yes....my back, and neck still hurt. (more so my back)


I'll never beat Linda, or Nadia on there blogging, "Queen bloggers!!" I can't even keep up with reading them, nevermind writing them. Still it's really nice being able to read what your thoughts are all about on a day to day basis, or like me once every couple of....oh you know what I mean. It's summer, and rather than spend my time in front of the computer thinking of a subject to write about, I'd rather take care of my yard, water the grass and flowers, enjoying the warm weather, talk to the neighbors....anything to get out of the house, cause cometh the cold, we all back inside for the winter....then you'll see some bloggin goin on! or not...lol.

Bottom line blogging is just great, cause one way or another we continue to communicate, even if some of us have time or not....it'll be there to read.

Saturday's memorial service for Tia Alcinda was very nice, and I believe it was just the way she wanted it. Her wishes being that the family get together afterwards for some food and socializing was all about Tia Alcinda, she loved that, and I could see she was most happy when alot of the family was around. Even that sunshine coming through those grey skies in the backyard, made me think that she was happy to know we were all together there. We'll all miss her dearly.

I'll be writing another blog again soon...
...if it rains, then I won't go outside.

Hallelujah! He has returned...but seriously. I understand what you mean about "the great outdoors". Our summers are way too short, and we need to get out there and enjoy them as much as we can. That is why you will notice that I only blog when I am at home, late at night or at work... :)

I forgot to mention that I too really enjoyed Tia Alcinda's memorial and our get together at Idilia's. Idilia and Ben - thank you for fulfilling your mother's wishes. I know that she was happy to have all of us together and I could feel her spirit there among us.

I am very sorry for your loss - but just remember, we'll all be together again someday!

Helder, my hubby - lucky for me - loves gardening and taking care of the outside which is great cuz leaves me more time to blog!
Oh, and the unemployment factor is part of it too....ha ha.
Tia Alcinda's memorial was perfect and a life was celebrated.

I just read your comments re the memorial..and yes I'm crying. It's funny she wanted Carlos and Dill to have the family BBQ...so this was her way to ensure that they did...just combined and it was amazing. Thank you for all coming and being with us. You have been our supports in the past year and we appreciate your celebrating her life. She is soooooooo very much missed.
Love,
Ben
