I think it's probably all of my stalker boyfriends. Most of them work for Google.
Random: I had to work late. Is it too late to open up a bottle of Malbec? Cause I just did. | |

| Sorry I haven't been around lately, but real life has kept me occupied for the last couple of weeks. My brother has suffered with Lou Gehrig's for several years and passed away this week. I'm going to miss him beyond words. He was very sick for a long time and passed peacefully as he wished, at home, surrounded by his family. | |

| Uh, reading the posts on this page, I guess it's best to keep your hands behind your back----or is that naughty too? | |

| Sweet Lord, Sharabella. My sincerest condolences to you and his family. If there is anything we can do here for you, just say the word.
Beyond parents, I believe it is when siblings pass away that our own mortality is brought sharply to mind. Like all deaths, the death of a sibling brings upon a search for meaning because it is these people with whom we share a common family history.
Grant him now freed of this life's pains and worries, a place of lasting safety and peace in heaven. Amen. | |

| My deepest sympathies and prayers to you, Sharabella.
If you keep your hands behind your back all the time, wouldn't people think you're making obscene gestures back there? | |

It's pointless to consider it anyway, 'cause I need my hands to talk. --------------------- Thank you everyone. I held him as he passed -- It's made me feel very old, tired and sad, but I'll make it.

| I'm so sorry about your brother, Shara. I'm glad he got to have his wishes honored by getting to be at home with family. Thank you, Nay, for providing such a nice prayer. I sent the same one up too. And I also asked God to be with you and your family and to give y'all His peace. And you're right. Hands in the pockets might be stranger than behind the back. It's a tough call. | |

| Sharabella, was your brother able to plan his memorial service/funeral? I knew a lovely man years ago dying of lung cancer who planned it all including his choice of blues songs to be used throughout the funeral. It was so much more personal.
Random:
Here's the latest photo of the small garden at the front and one of it last Easter. It's been nearly a year since I started this project.
The below photos are of the second half of the same front area. The before-rotary hoe one shows the weed situation and the other shows one quarter garden bed with my white Old English climbing rose, lavender and rosemary bushes in place. I had been told (and read) that olive trees are slow growers. Someone forgot to tell mine! | |

| Lovely.
I have a great fondness for rosemary, lavender and olive trees. I bet it looks spectacular at night with the lights against the silvery foliage.
****** And yes, he had made arrangements years before. | |

| If I may? I believe Nay is refering to what we call "in srevice" days. Just teachers, working away, learning from each other, making plans, preparing rooms, talking about anyone new, acting like kids, and drinking a hell of a lot of coffee. Then the real kids come back and throw all those well laid plans into the dumpster. | |

My house is a sports-free zone. BTW, tenniswear has gone to hell. | |

I figure that in a few years they'll be playin' in designer thongs and tassels. (and boy, are the guys gonna look funny in tassels ) But then, I think pajamas are going to become formal wear, and offices will have clothing optional Fridays in the foreseeable future, so what do I know? | |

It has, in military uniforms, the camouflage stuff is now worn in lots of nice places. And women's clothings. Just look at the red carpet wear. A lot of them are skimpier than negligees.
