I was thinking about online forums and this crazy thing they become... we talk to people we never met and will probably never meet (considering that each live in a different continent).. we start caring for them... worrying, praying, getting happy when good things happen, laughing, cheering them on, sometimes even getting into arguments, and then making peace... and to think that it will always remain virtual... it's just a little sad... :(

In this life, yes. But the good news is, if we're in Christ, we'll get to see each other on the New Heavens and New Earth. I'm looking forward to that one. :)

You sure have a nice and long term way of looking at things... :)

I'm a little fast paced myself... I couldn't even wait for the second and third movie of the LotR thrilogy to come out to find out the end of the story...

But that's just another of my many character's flaws that I place at the Lord's feet... :)

I feel fractured, and then I feel guilty saying that because I have so many blessings to be counted. On the other hand it is in this broken state that we realize most fully our need of Jesus.

We all are fractured one way or another. Just saying,"Here am I", is all that God needs to glue the pieces back together.

And Sue was just saying yesterday that she would like to get together again soon. This time, we'll drive north to your choice of eateries. Since Tourist is the only one who has to work, you guys pick the day and place.

I was trying to meet SkyLove when we were in Indiana but an Aunt invited her away at the time we were going... We were so busy anyway with my relatives and then up to Michigan to meet Jerry's Daughter and family.... I am an official Granny now of three pretty girls.....

I would meet you all if I had the time and money... of course you guys would have to agree.....we tourists really aren't that scary.....lol

Since it has gotten quite here I kind of pop in and out...you know the living life thing.... Tourist and I owned a cute dog for about 2 and half minutes....I discovered that I am definitely a cat person that dogs require way more of me than I am willing to give....I like the way cats put me on ignore and I can do the same with them that is not tourist...lol

So we took the dog back gave him high praise as he was a good dog just more work than I am able to handle and I felt guilty that we don't have a fenced in yard to let the 5 month old puppy run.....plus I dropped a pill and the dog snatched it and downed it before I could get to him then I worried about him the rest of the day....as a couple of pills I take could do him harm and not sure which pill he took.....I'm hoping it was a vitamin D.....I'll never know as he lived through whatever it was....

You're welcome.
Yes, she's been here since last Wednesday. She spent Wednesday afternoon with me.
Marie had to go grocery shopping, April didn't want to go, so, she stayed with me. I saw
her late Thursday, when I came in from the hospital, for about 30 minutes. She's wide
open, can't keep her in one place for very long.
I didn't see her Friday or Saturday, but she did go to church with us on Sunday. She wanted
to ride with us, Jim and Marie drove themselves. We came in from church, she helped the
wife prepare lunch. We ate lunch, she took a nap, then went home

I saw her briefly today, I bought her a battery operated truck, she didn't want a barbie car,
wanted a truck. She'll be able to ride it from her house to mine faster than walking. Teaching
her to drive it, is another thing.

She's doing real good, happy, just being a child again. That's my main goal, is for her to be
happy. We plan on riding the horses on Saturday, if the weather permits.

Oh, my, a four year old driving her own little battery operated truck, that will be a sight :eek: I am glad to hear that everyone is settling in. :) I hope the weather stays nice for horse riding on the weekend... I can't remember the last time I rode a horse. I remember being thrown from one, though LOL. I hope you all have fun :):):)
