Technology

My dang computer is on the blink
at home and it is driving me NUTS!
I'll be glad when my son-in-law can fix it!
For now, I'll enjoy reading everyone's post.

The world we live in

What kind of world do we live in
when we can't even feel safe at our
workplace. My best friend since high school
was stabbed yesterday at the hospital she works
at in Texas. her co-worker was also stabbed 
but did not make it. Life started out so wonderful
for these two nurses yesterday morning and then
their world came crashing down. My heart hurts
for her and the family of her co-worker. Everytime
Karen closes her eyes she can see the events play in
her mind over and over again and she thinks to herself
what could I have done differently. 
Please hug your family a little tighter and give
thanks for them this Thanksgiving holiday.
And while your at it, call up a friend and let them
know how blessed you are to have them in your life.
I almost lost my best friend yesterday and that
would have devastated me.

Daddy's little girl

I love this picture of my son-in-law
and granddaughter.
He was so afraid to have a daughter
because he comes from a family of boys.
He wasn't sure what to do with a little girl.
My husband has a great relationship with our daughters,
so he asked him for advice.
She adores her daddy. This picture
caught the essence of their relationship together.

Picking Grapes




Started the day off  helping friends pick their grapes.
I've never done this before so it was quite interesting.
They make Chardonnay wine.  I don't drink wine but
it was fun hanging out with friends and enjoying a cool
crisp morning in August.

My Bluebird of Happiness




.....My memories of me and you
Shall never end,
Because I know, that no matter where I go,
My blue bird of happiness will always
Show me the way back
To where we last left track of each other.

Now I truly feel that we are best friends for real.
Seems like we'll be friends forever,
If we are not
Then I will always keep my most prized treasures.
Because you were one of my bestest friends.
Thank you, my friend
For my blue bird of happiness

Mariisa, Marissa Faries
