Where were you?
I will never forget that day. I got a call from a friend saying "Turn on the TV". I asked what channel, and he said "any, it doesnt matter" This must have been barely a minute before the second plane hit the towers. My then 6 year old daughter asked what was happening. My immediate answer.. world war 3.
I too shared the bewilderment and disbelief, incredible sadness. We only watched for a little while. I remember some unconfirmed news of another crash, but had to turn it off when people started to jump. That was too much for a 6 year old to hear, or for me to see.
Lest we forget
Take the politics and religion out of this for just a moment, and think only of ordinary people going about their normal life
:thumb126138755:
Remember ALL of those who have given their lives to help others or preserve freedom. Think of this as a tribute to ALL tragic losses and atrocities.
Peace
War and hate should have no place in our future - for everyone.

When a smart phone won't do
I've been managing without a computer for many years, but there comes a point when a smart phone just won't do the job. So I've been dabbling with personal stuff using different software. Even Photoshop has changed a lot in the last few years, but I'm working up to artwork again. I'm determined to learn new software while I save up for Photoshop and get back to the good stuff :D I'm determined to learn alternative software while I save up for Photoshop and get back to the good stuff. Gimp really isn't the same. I need to let my dark side out to paint Where have I been? Dealing with my health mostly. Lots of new stuff added to that long list of conditions. I didn't make a full recovery from cancer, but I was pretty good for a while. Independent and positive as always. But its back, and its untreatable. Stage 4, Terminal. It spread to my lungs. I was still doing great until earlier this year when I had double pneumonia. I survived but it has left me needing daily oxygen and
Cancer Update
Hello friends and watchers.
"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it is about Learning to Dance in the Rain."
Its been almost 4 months since I made a journal, I haven't thought about how much time I have been busy with this evil cancer. Actually I had TWO cancers in the same breast, How special am I :giggle:
But I'm not feeling sorry for myself, im looking for all the positives. And there are many.
I've had the surgery, and I still have both boobs even though one is well butchered. It doesn't bother me, just another set of battle scars, and I've still got the view even though I dont have any hair. Actually I have some of m
Beating Cancer
I havent been around as much as id like. Illness and frequent new diagnosis. It's been a big year for hospital procedures and diagnosis. Almost non stop since Easter. But there was 1 result that puts everything else in perspective.
I have breast cancer.
It's stage 3c, her2 and has spread. Ill know more next week when I go for surgery. I'm not sad. I'm finding simple pleasures and facing whatever comes with out tears.
Ive also dyed my hair bright green because I can, and im going to lose it very soon.
Wish me luck for 18th September. My surgery is on my birthday
