A Sorrowful Day

Yesterday 9/11/2010

my sweet great niece, Lexie, only 10 years old

lost her you her almost lifetime fight with

cancer and passed way.

She was such a sweet , strong fighter and most

always active and happy.

My hubby was on his cell with his

friend who knows Lexie, most folks in

Chillicothe did.

I heard his friend, say Lexie ( his voice comes over

the phone quite clearly) & I knew immediately ...I just sobbed

& sobbed .

I confess I even said

"Oh no, God, why not me ? I am 55 & she is a tender age of

1o . Why God?? it's not fair, Why??

Rich's face fell, he said "dont

say that"

I recentlly put a little framed on prominent display

later, I sat down & it was right in front of my

Everything happens for a reason. Just believe

I do believe & who am I to question our Lord.

I guess God has more plans for me (& everyone)

Lexie is with God now. She is estatic & total healed.

please pray for the family & all who loved Lexie

in time of sorrow & grief

Wednesday With BFFs

Wednesday was BFF day. Michele recently left her job (retired) and Marcia

just came back from 3 week stay with grandson Hunter and granddaughter Harper.

We had missed each other much.

We had lunch here at "The Nestle In The Singing Woods"

Mint Iced Tea

Baby Salad Greens with herbs, I even added mint to

my salad.

Cantaloup and Blueberries.

Then we took a 2 mile walk on Singing Woods Road

and collecting Acorns.

Came back home and had Red Velvet Cake (Michele brought) &

cupcakes (Marcia brought)

Good conversation..hugs..pix and

little gifts from Michele

I got a Spiced Tea Pouch to set hot Tea and spread the

fragrance & a Tea bag.

I had the Tea & some toast with real butter

& cinammon sugar generously sprinkled atop today for breakfast.

Great to have such kind, caring, sweet friends

I have know Michele (dark hair) & Marcia (light hair for more than 25 years

We all worked at a local big bank. Marcia was a Branch Manager and my

boss in the 1980's. Michele was an Auditor.and I was Marcia's Assistant

Manager in the 1980's when we met.

My BFF Back Today

An owl hooting by our window woke me up today.

Hubby & I are going out for a morning in the cool

crisp morning.

Marcia will be home today.

Back from California visit

to grand babes .

It'll be great to have her around ..she always

makes my life better.

Our internet has been up and down.

I think it's my wireless network settings.

So we are just leaving the Mac s on

they "sleep" but the net connection doesn't close.

My new wireless router, well I am not sure I

set the network correct, but my poor brain is beyond

that.

Anyone have EXPERTISE..please let me know

Have a great day!!
