Pat and Me

Some pics of Pat (and me) that mean a lot to me.

This is Pat cooking great biscuits for me in Griffin on 11/12/2007

Pat at Pat (Obrien's) braving a Hurricane in New Orleans, New Years Eve 2007

As Pat accepted my marraige proposal at Brennan's in New Orleans on 1/2/2008, this picture was taken by another Dawg fan at the next table.

New Pages

This is my first entry to this new blog. My primary objective is for it to serve as a personal diary, to help me more clearly recall at some later date how blessed I have been. At the same time, should others that I love care to read and know what is happening in my life, the information will be here.

Much has happened in the past months that I have not chronicled and this new blogsite is my somewhat inadequate attempt to articulate my thoughts and feelings and images of those events.

As I write this, it is the first Mother's Day in my 67 years of life that my Mother has not been on this Earth. She was always an earthbound Angel but recently God took her Home and gave her the wings she had earned and I know in my heart, as a Heavenly Angel, she is now watching over me and her family and all our loved ones.
Each of us has the capacity to choose. We can mourn a death or celebrate a life! My Mother's life was a precious gift of life to me and to all her family she so tenderly blessed. We all will miss her physical presence here and now but her spiritual presence will be in our hearts until, hopefully, we will join her some day. Until then, I choose to celebrate her life!
