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?

Probably, and knowing me, I would be. 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. Wink

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.

Nay, Nay, tcurds and whey, how does your garden grow?
With silver shells, and cotton bells, and one measly phfffffptunia!

Random: I contacted a breeder about some Persian kittens. I think I might be wanting another smushed faced kitty.

Are you swearing at me in Yankee lingo, DK? Suspect I put lots of manure in my garden.

Thanks Emily, Shar and Sami. It has been a lot of hard work especially for someone who knew absolutely nothing about gardens, soil, plants etc. The learning curve was steep but the pleasure I have gained has been immense.

Random:

Queensland started Pupil Free Days this week and I am sensing that this year, 2012, will be remarkably different at my joint. Not better, not worse, just different.

PS. I find it important to mention that an Aussie (Hewitt) kicked a Yank (Roddick) out of the Australian Open this week.

Australian Opened what? Vegemite bottles?

What do Pupil Free Days mean? The teachers are free of students? The students are free to do whatever they want? Everyone goes blind? 'Splain!

If I may? Confused


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.

Oh. Fun. As a parent, I don't like those days. Kids need to be in school every weekday.

Not everything is about vegemite. Australian Open Tennis Championship! Do you live in a sports vacuum in the great state of Texas, Julie?? Say something random about you (Part 5) - Page 12 642267

Shar, you may ... anytime. All of your description is correct except sometimes (more often than we'd like) we are subjected to mind-numbingly boring Professional Development such as happened to a large group of us cattle ticks this week. Off shoots are the coffee, laughs and freshness and excitement of new classroom/incoming students. Julie would be one of those parents I dodge when I see them coming. "Hello Mrs Lego, how are you?" just keep walking lady! Say something random about you (Part 5) - Page 12 646968

RIP Miss James.

When I go talk to teachers, I'm fully armed for combat. First strike!

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 Very Happy )


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.
