My Thoughtful Spot

Occasionally my spirit rebells... Those are the words my mom uses and they are so true for me as well. A smaller scale I'm sure, but true nonetheless. Yesterday was one of those days. I got a lot of work done, I took care of the littles, but my heart ached, it felt broken, all the day long. I would never wish my dad back from where he is - he's never been in a better place his whole life long. But MY heart hurts. I want him in MY life. I want to tease him one more time, to race him to the couch one more time, to hide his apple pie one more time. Oh God... tell my daddy I love him. Please.

I've discovered why some friends/family have trouble commenting. You've been blacklisted! I did NOT choose this! LOL. I don't know if I've fixed it or not.... but if you have been having trouble commenting, please try again and let me know if it works or not!

You can email me at glenda dot leigh @ gmail dot com. Obviously (I think?) the dots are to be actual dots and the spaces need to be removed.

and I only plan to share a portion of the pictures. At least for now.... Figuring out where to start is the hard part!

Bye Mom... going boating!

woops. Boat has been rained in for days.. gotta dump it.

We weren't intending to fish.... but we sure came home with a big catch! We later found the owners and returned it.

Ginger was a wonderful friend for the week...

Fun times..

wildlife. We missed the bear, it moved too quickly for me to dig my camera out. It was tiny and SOO cute! These guys were a little less in a hurry to get away. I love the reflection of the duck in the water.

FROG. My thread these days. Fully Rely On God. Love this picture.

my pooter is functional for the moment. We'll see how long it lasts. Tomorrow we are leaving on vacation and I can't wait. To just sit... Everything has fallen apart both in my world and in my house in the last 10 days and I need a break from at least the house. Maybe then I can start to heal my world.

I took a test, just for the sake of doing it. If I can figure out how to share the results here, I will...

Look at that, I must have a little geek in me despite my low nerd content.

Later days....

This is Andrea/admin here in Glenda's journal, with a message from her.

Would you (I think you're able?) post on my blog that 1. I'm having puter problems and need a new hd and 2. I'm leaving Sunday for a weeks vacation?

Here's hoping her computer gets fixed properly this time, AND she has a nice time on vacation.

died this afternoon.

I'm working at getting ready to head out in the morning, only having minimul success. I'll make it, one way or another. I won't be around blog world for most of a week however. I'm not sure when we'll be back. Monday at the earliest.

I'm vascillating between numb and aching so very badly.

I'm sure you all know by now how much I love pictures...

Finally got a cute one of meeka today.

Walking in Daddy's shoes...

And.. this just appeared in my yard this summer. Apparently the critters are thinking I need more flowers and bringing me seeds? Can anyone tell me what it is? It certainly has a lilly look to it!

Of course, it has to begin with the bride and groom... Joseph and Katie. I need to do just a bit of red eye work on this picture. A few of them need it, most worse than this.

The flower girl enjoyed the bubbles

Brothers...friends....groomsmen

And for now.. that is all. I have forty kazillion things to do and I think I might just do nothing for a time!

It's so hot....

the birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground.
the potatoes cook underground, and all you have to do to have lunch is to pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.
farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs.
the cows are giving evaporated milk.
the trees are whistling for the dogs.
you no longer associate bridges (or rivers) with water.
you can say 113 degrees without fainting.
you eat hot chilies to cool your mouth off.
you can make instant sun tea.
you learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.
the temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly.
you've experienced condensation on your butt from the hot water in the toilet bowl.
