Flaming June's Love

OK I can whine and cry and be bitter and shit but I am not doing it today. I did post some videos of my favorite memories of my Dad and to be honest I think Davey will be the only one to get them all. I can say each of them represents the most important things to him and some of the biggest hings he meant to me. Thew first of course was an eent that only we can get. The night before I got married my dad had the greatest and most heartfelt laugh I think in his life, Simply put at the expense of no one. Hakuna Matata was his mantra . It remained that way for the rest of his life, and probably ours. The next is wipeout. He was an amazing drummer and could rip this up like no one else. A few beats of wipeout and I smile no matter where or when it will be him to me. The next is Pat Boone, he would sing to my Mom in the house and he loved to tell us all he sounded just like him. I believe the oke is my Mom may have at one time in her youth told him he sounded like Pat Boone and He ne...

I felt him today, so close to what holds me to this place. I was thinking about where we were two years ago. I was thinking about what hes physically missed. I just felt a sudden tug at my mortality and my place in this world and how close the other side is. I had Allie in the car and I just started to cry. I was crying about how proud he must be of her. She is working her job, going to school at night and along with that being a great kid. I want him to see that. I was thinking about how Missi gets more and more beautiful everyday and how he waited for her to come home from school everyday, then made her toast and milk. I was thinking that he would be so proud of me, yes I am saying it. I have been doing alright lately. Pushing forward and trying my best to be a good mom and wife and sister and daughter. All that stuff and I do it so that someday I will see him again and the whole family can sit and chat for eternity. I was driving along and just felt he was alright. I felt clo...

I found this book a few weeks ago at the ole B&N. I read it sitting there. I fell in love. I found today that he died on the 25th of July. I do believe that people are gifts, this one was amazing.

"O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life."

As I had expected and hoped Allies party went off well. I am attaching a few pics of the evening. One o fjust her on her night and one with her two best friends. They are good kids that have gone to different colleges but come home to one another. The blonde Kellie is just that.. a blonde kellie!!!! Overly happy but honest. smart but dumb. A good friend that doesnt know any better. Kailyn is highly intelligent and sassy, not a naive bone in her body. misread as a bitch.... no ... she is a bitch... if you dont know her. honest, and if she doesnt lilike you you will know it. Allie rounds is out by rounding them both down, Kellie not so soft and Kai not so hard. It works for them. Missi is away for the week at camp. As everyone knows camp is her highlight. she loves it every summer. It may be called bible camp but I dont see it. If she is religious she tries very hard to not appear it. She Ibelieve is very spiritual but far from religious. SHe can seem abrasive with her voici...
