My sweet mother is ill. Difficult to write about just now. Even more difficult to deal with. Just days after she put down her dog, she became very ill and has not recuperated since. It has been a very emotional and sad time watching her go through so  much suffering. I love my mother and she means the world to me. I pray she will somehow turn this around. God bless her and keep her in his care.

Remembering a very special day in my life

I once had the honor of meeting this sweet soft spoken gentleman and he touched my heart before he even spoke with his warm enchanting smile.

Mr Sidney Poitier is truly a special man for so many reasons. From  his humble beginnings, came a kind man who became so influential that he has walked with some of the most important men in history. He himself has his own place there.

I was ofcourse impressed by those things but mostly because of his sweet loving nature and how hospitable he was and how welcome he made me feel in his home. He made such a fuss over my daughter who was young at the time and left an impression on her as well that she will always remember.

June 20th.....another year older.....don't like my birthday.....but it comes....and I am happy to be alive just don't like the day. It came and went. Time is still flying.....

I had faith in trying once more in some other things and that was shot down like a ROCKET...bad idea.....people DO NOT change. It's okay. Survived.

My poor mother had to put our little Abby down tonight..so very sad. She was an adorable doxie...that was truly loved. Heartbreaking. I am still not recovered from Tootsie......heart aches every day.

So wish to change my career...just knowing there is something else I can do and have fun at it....but STUCK for now.

Beaches have been beautiful as the weather is too.......so lucky to be here in southern California.  Just missing family and friends is not fun.

I am not in the mood to write.....xo

February already....2013...wow. So very many thoughts on my mind......but so little to say ......out loud.

I miss my grandparents. When I think back on them ......it is like looking at one of those old fashioned movie cameras video taping our life moments...in color. They were so very precious to  me.......and I know that they lived long happy lives.....but I miss them so much in mine......all the wonderful things I know they would have loved.......and mostly because I want to share those with them.........I carry them in my heart...every day........and hope they can feel it......hope they know.

My little Sofia......how much my Grandmother loved her ....and my Papa would. Oh what a love affair that would have been.....how much she would treasure a gift like both of you in her life........the wonderful gift I was given.

I will love you forever..........my Papa and Grandma........
