Dresses

I am in search of a dress for Braunt and Breanna's wedding, August 4th. I have a navy lace dress that has panel inserts of satin the front. It's very nice but kind of looks like it's from the renaissance period. So I decided I'm going to get something else. After much looking, I believe I've found one. I'm going to get the shrug to go with it. That's all for tonight. Toodles

Happy Mother's Day 2018

2018! In July it will be 29 years that I've been a mom! How did that happen? And a Granny since 2014! It's amazing. I'm so thankful for being both. It is such an honour and truly a privilege to be both. Today I remember my Mom and all the 'Moms' I had throughout the years. My Mom was a great mom. Her love lives on into our children: Dreytan has her care and concern for others, Kiershyn is a little mama bird taking care of us, and Braunt has her sense of humour.

Anyone who thinks setting up a new computer is easy needs a shot. I've been working on setting up my new computer for the past 16 hours and have just finally got the damn thing working. Well, not that it wasn't working before, it just wasn't doing what I needed it to do. Had I migrated the two machines, it would've gone a lot more smoothly. Instead I figured it shouldn't be that hard. Ya right! Complete change of subject: DO NOT BE AFRAID TO TALK! If you feel someone is not well, then a few gentle words could make the difference between now and then. In fairness to society, when those with mental health issues say that everyone's silent and no one talks to them, STAND UP AND TALK! If we don't start the conversation, don't expect someone to just jump in a say you look like shit. People aren't like that. People are uncertain when it comes to anything mental health, especially when the onus is on them to get the ball rolling. May 13th Just getting
