The last time I was here shooting Spoonies this message did not exist he is headed to the Rookery with a stick there is an assortment of birds nesting but it is primarily the spoonies.
I have noticed on a lot of the photos that I upload that they appear lighter on Flickr than they do on my computer.

On March 3, 2012 my dear friend Marybeth passed away after a battle with cancer. Losing someone you love is always difficult, losing a friend is something that I never had to do before.
A loss of a friend has never meant death in my lifetime. Losing friends means that you moved away, they moved away, you had a disagreement, you were too involved and didn't have enough time to get together and drifted apart, but death is different. When losing a friend is not because of death, there is still opportunity to talk with them, to visit, to have a facebook relationship, to kiss and make up.
Death has always been sad, but sad for those left behind. The person that has passed has gone somewhere better? I don't know about this, but they are not here to tell us. I will not tell you what I think. I will not tell you about God, heaven or whether I believe this or I believe you close your eyes and life turns off like a light switch. I still have many questions. A lifetime of questions.
What I do know is that I miss Marybeth terribly. I think of her daily. I never believed that cancer was going to take her until the day before she passed. I went to see her. I spent my final time with her, listening to her family members, but not talking with her because she was too weak to speak. I spent my final moment with her whispering silly things to her along with I love you because I was in shock that all this time we had known she had cancer, I was too naive to realize the end result. I didn't know what to say to her. I don't know what knowing would have done, I don't know what it would have changed or if it would have made things worse, but I do know that it took me a year to talk about this.
March 3, 2013 I went out with a friend. We decided to write messages to Marybeth. We each brought a rose with us. We wrote messages on the petals and threw them in the river. I do not know what my friend wrote and my friend did not know what I wrote, but we stood side by side writing on each petal and tossing them into the river which took them away. I wrote words about how I feel, questions I wanted to know, song lyrics, her name, I drew her pictures and I cried. It was a peaceful day for me because I finally figured out in that year that had passed what I wanted to say to her on that last day.
I have not received any answers and I really did not expect to. I still miss her terribly. I am glad that I spent my day, a year later, doing something and trying to still talk with her, see her, visit with her. I love you Mb.
Time is running out for people from other European countries who live in Wales - adults and children alike - who risk losing their rights to live here unless they register for Settled Status by 30 June.
Swansea for Europe campaigners took this message to Swansea beach, creating a giant sand artwork measuring 50 metres by 30 metres, to mark Europe Day on 9 May.
Citizens of EU and EFTA countries who came to the UK before the end of 2020 have to apply under the UK’s Settlement Scheme by 30 June – otherwise, they will lose their rights to live and work in the UK. This is a new rule because of Brexit.
This applies to citizens from the 27 EU countries, plus Norway, Iceland, Switzerland and Liechtenstein:
It includes:
•people who may have been living in the UK for decades, perhaps even before the UK joined the EU, who may not realise that they now need to register;
•children and other dependents of those affected who do not hold British citizenship;
•people who were previously granted UK permanent residence documents, which will no longer be valid after 30 June.
Edmund Sides, chair of Swansea for Europe, said:
“ We are very concerned that many people, including those who have been here for decades – and even children born here - could lose their rights to live here. The problem is that many of the people who will be affected either don’t know about Settled Status, or don’t realise it applies to them.

From The Independent:
The Governor's press secretary, Aaron McLear, insisted yesterday that it was simply a "weird coincidence" that the email had acrostically spelled out an obscenity. He claimed that the sheer volume of the vetoes that Mr Schwarzenegger has been forced to pass in recent years meant "something like this was bound to happen". ...
But the claim met with a healthy dose of scepticism: the words cited by McLear are four letters long, a length relatively likely to crop up at random. The mathematical probability of the seven-letter phrase ... doing the same is 26 to the power of seven – or about 8,031,810,176 – to one.

since yesterday, although nothing particularly got to me, i feel that whenever somebody leaves me a comment, i'm unsure on how to take it. i have had various comments since the misunderstanding with miss emily whoever, but i read most of them in a way which stands to me as sarcastic or just not constructive. i would say recently, even before the incident that i have begun to retire from flickr, much because of the majority of people on here. all my contacts are great, and i really appreciate the support they have given me through my projects and have helped me build the confidence to experiment with different things. one project i am considering ending is my "postsecret", not only due to me not uploading one in a fair while, but because of what miss "right" said yesterday, complaining that i do too much typography, which would have been correct, if she wasn't pointing out my "postsecret" (which obviously, has to include text).
thanks.
Ever seen that scene from Lord of the Rings where 'the beacons are lit'. Well, here's an example of one of those from real (albeit historical) life.

A small part of my large collection of sweet messages from my best friend and other half <3 Featuring a letter and part of a gift (the handmade heart container) from our first Christmas, a note that was left on my mirror when he left for work one day, a sticky note with positive vibes for my first day of school for a semester I was really nervous for, and the box with the cutest ring in it for our 2nd anniversary. Definitely, the best messages I could have lying around giving me the best vibes and the most love.
**It definitely looks like it says, "I love you, stupid." But it really says, "I love you stupid amounts." ;)

I wasn't going to post this, but then I saw this image by Aaron this morning and was kind of amazed at how similar we "saw." I love that sort of thing. :-)
I am quite behind on going through images and I have to move things to my external drive before I can even begin because I'm out of room, but I was up at the König's Saturday-Sunday and have some nice shots from a lovely weekend, including my daily photos for each day. I got home yesterday evening feeling newly sick (even though I was sick last week, this is new), so I just laid around until 10pm or so, when I went to bed. I'll catch up with y'all soon enough.
