Facebook…

Well I have been enjoying facebook, and Becky and I have finally convinced Ted to join.  So a few days ago, he tried it, and he is now officially addicted..(tee hee, told you so!)  I came home from work the other night to find Ted, busy “friending ” people.  I was surprised, because my husband does not usually like to try new things, and especially things that everyone tells him he should try!  He has 44″ friends” already…although I have twice that many (na na na na na… Lol!!)  But enough with the free advertisement for facebook (FB).

My daughter, Rebecca recently had her Confirmation at St. Pauls.  It was a really nice ceremony, officiated by our Pastor.  Three other kids, (Remember that I told you all that we live in a very “small” town) and Becky, all stood up at the altar, and reaffirmed their Baptismal promises that were made for them as babies.  I was very proud of Becky. She looked very pretty in a white Sundress, and heels…you know, so grownup…Afterwards, we went next door to our Church hall, and coffee, cake and some other goodies, that us Moms had made.  My sis and her hubby, and the kids were there, my Dad, a few friends, my brother, Ted’s Aunt, and some of the parishioners.  It was a special day for Becky, just like last year for Thomas , when it was his Confirmation…love my kids!!

I am trying to convince Ted to go on a road trip this summer. It would be to Cinncinati, OH, for a long weekend.  Becky and I definetely want to go, but I don’t think that I would drive that far, without a second driver.  It would probably be our only trip this summer.I  know that he will enjoy himself if we go to Ohio.   I have slowly convinced him that

travelling,  seeing new things, and having new adventures is a GOOD thing!( as you’ll see if you read my “Dolly” Blogs, and the ones about our cruises).  I will keep you posted.

We had a real nice visit with  my BIL, Erik, SIL Mandie, and nephew, Ethan the Sunday before Becky’s Confirmation.  They came up from KY(Kentucky) where Erik is stationed right now.  They hope to be going back to Georgia to live, though not in Savannah, one day , in the not too distant future.  It was good to see them, and Mandie got to go to the city again , and do some shopping.

Well, I guess that’s it for now.  Going to Bed…I will blog again soon.

3 Month Vacation

Well… I’m back after 3 months. I’ve  actually been having a blast on FB.  I see someone has been checking almost everyday for a post from me on here.  Whoever it was, is, sorry for seemingly abandoning my blog, and thanks !  I sort didn’t really have any motivation to come back here…I’m sort of lazy too…what can I say?  I honestly don’t know how my friend John, “Best Cruise Director in the World” Heald blogs on every single day.  BTW,  for anyone who doen’t know, John’s wife, Heidi, had a beautiful baby girl…Kye…on  May 15th.  She is just gorgeous, and John is beside himself, and home in England right now, of course!  Hi John, Heidi and Kye!!!

Also, today is a some what sad, albeit, special day too.  Today would have been Catherine’s 42 nd Birthday.  Catherine was my friend, of course,  who left us (in Dec)way before it was her time to go…Still think about her EVERY single day.  Saturday was her son Nicholas’ 6th Birthday, also.  I can’t imagine what it was like for him, without her being there… What was left of the house, has been bulldozed and the hole filled in now…The hole left in all of our hearts has not been though…Damn…..I told myself that  I had no more tears left…I was wrong…sorry.  I have been, occasionally leaving flowers by what was the house, and today I will do the same thing.  I think that I wil call Catherine’s mom tonight.  Well, as those of you who are regular readers of my blog know, I am somewhat technologically and internetly (I know, not a real word) challenged.  So the scan below, did not come out as large as I had hoped.  Can anybody help me…oh well if not here, maybe somebody on FB or Big Ed’s krewe can tell me what I did wrong!!  I will try to get a better copy of the article  below, about Catherine (written lovingly by her mom in honor of her daughter’s  first Birthday in Heaven).   Well that’s all for now.  Have to go to work in a little while…But I shall return :).
