gentle whispers

image from: 
Some 23+ years ago, I read and wrote for a hobby.  Then I got married and priorities changed, and life got busy. Then I had kids! I quit reading for pleasure. For some time  I did continue writing~but it became a venting place. I eventually quit.
Then I started this blog thinking my creative juices would kick in, and writing and sharing would just flow out without much  'thinking time'.  But it didn't happen that way. I began to wonder if I wanted to 'let the whole world' know everything about me and my family anyway.
Now that my children are all young adults, thoughts of writing have been gently knocking at my mind. But I am not sure where to begin.  Many have expressed a desire to hear my life story, but am not sure I can ....Some events that have impacted my life are too personal to share~yet.  Then my computer crashed, and I thought~There!  I can still that voice, for I no longer had my own 'space' to write in my own  time.  But then~my guys fixed my computer, and now I can't use that excuse.  Alas, there are other excuses popping up.  I'll have to think about this for awhile...  :)
I really do!

Its Alive!

Looking over previous posts I realize that I never reported that my 2 favorite guys fixed my computer, saving at least a $40.00 diagnostic fee!
After trying a 'home remedy' for fixing the motherboard, they ordered one off e-bay, and ever since they installed it, my computer is back in service.

Rain!



Sisters in the rain
We don't often get rain at this time of year, so they jumped at the chance to play in it.  
The heat makes it steamy~
not quite a sauna...

A New Experience

Saying good bye as my daughter heads off alone on a 20 hour driving trip to drop off her car at the college she plans to attend this fall.
 ~she comes back home for a few weeks before she returns to school~

Concentrate!

It amazes me how focused and intense these kids get with legos.  They play contentedly for several hours without fussing.  When squabbles begin~ a nap time or rest is sure to follow.
