Count Your Blessings #4

Last night, there was a big sleep-over birthday party going on. I thought I'd be smart, and avoid the crush of people and go to my room, and try to Blackberry-blog. This requires quite a bit of patience because all the keys are very small. And there's a little thingie which your thumb has to pass over, so it will click on where the cursor should be. Not to mention that the screen is small, and the letters are even smaller, and although you can zoom in, it zooms out very fast, and soon, you're not sure what letterx you have prexerd.

Then suddenly the thingie passed over something that made the decision to 'post' and the message came up "Congratulations, you have posted successfully!" WHAT??!! No, no! I hadn't even wrtiten anythnga yt.

Oh well, it was too late, and there wasn't enough memory on the Blackberry to easily see what had happened, so I thought I'd wait until this morning to sort it out.

I'm so thankful for technology!

Isn't he just the sweetest thing? Those dark eyes turned blue and the black hair turned blond, and too quickly, this little guy grew taller than his dad and me. Today, it is eighteen years since that bright, blue-skies February morning when he made his debut. It has been eighteen years of many wonderful memories. Very early, I heard him chuckle at his sister's antics. He used to crawl on his belly, pulling himself along with his elbows. And when he was learning how to eat solids, he would say "mmmmNummNumm" as he ate, making the heart of the cook soar (even though it came from a jar). There was the day that I told him that if he sat and watched too much t.v. he would become a couch potatoe. He switched the t.v. off, and proceeded to inform me with little hands outstretched, and sincerity in his voice, that if he played too much Lego, he would become a Lego blueberry. And the Christmas season when we were doing Advent activities. He was drawing a picture of the ...

I decided to make March my month to release the expired. So far...   I have thrown out all makeup with less than one drop in the bottom of the jar.    I finally dumped the cauliflower in cheeze sauce I made for Christmas dinner.      I threw out the Pepto Bismol from 2010 - not even opened. It feels good to be rid of them.  It also makes me happy that I won't have to worry about bacteria in old makeup   And that my husband won't get sick from my cooking    And that my health has been good enough not to need the Pepto Bismol at all. Inspired by these events, I went through my closets. It is almost time to swap the winter for the summer.  My winter clothes seemed to have stood the test of time for now.  However, my shoes were showing major signs of wear.  I decided on two pairs that I need to say "Farewell" to. The corollary of getting rid of what is expired is that I now have room to add a couple new pairs. ...
