As I'm sure you've noticed, I've been missing for a while. I know it sounds like a lame excuse, but unfortunately Life got in the way. In the last month, several things kept me busy and away from the computer, one of those things was moving. I'm now re-settled and back to focus on this blog!

Happiness
Happiness is the inner joy that can be sought or caught, but never taught or bought.
The surest way to happiness is to lose yourself in a cause greater than yourself.
Happiness is the result of being too busy to be miserable.
Worry doesn't help tomorrow's troubles, but it does ruin today's happiness.

Grandma’s Gone Computer
In the not too distant past –
I remember very well–
Grandma’s tended to their knitting,
and their cookies were just swell.
They were always at the ready,
when you needed some advice.
And their sewing (I can tell you)
was available–and nice.
Well, Grandma’s not deserted you,
she dearly loves you still.
You just won’t find her cooking,
but she’s right there at the till.
She thinks about you daily–
you haven’t been forsook.
Your photos are quite handy,
in the Pentium notebook.
She scans your art work now though
,and combines it with cool sounds,
to make electronic greetings.
She prints pictures by the pound.
She’s right there when you need her,
you really aren’t alone,
She’s out now with her “‘puter pals,”
but she took her new cell phone.
You can also leave a message
on her answering machine;
or page her at the fun meet;
She’s been there since eight fifteen.
Yes, the world’s a very different place,
there is no doubt of that.
So “E” her from her web page,
or join her in a chat.
She’s joined the electronic age,
and it really seems to suit her.
So don’t expect the same old gal,
cause Grandma’s gone “Computer”.

Meet Nekoda
Isn't he precious! This is Nekoda, a Siberian Husky and our new grand-puppy. He is 7 wks old, with beautiful markings and sports one blue eye and the other marble. He enjoys eating and playing with his new toys. Nekoda also has fun exploring his big back yard by chasing leaves and frolicking around with that precious puppy hop.
