As I look back on all that's happened.
Growing up, growing together, changing you, changing me -- there were times when we dreamed together, when we laughed and cried together.
As I look back on those days, I realize how much I truly miss you and how much I truly love you.
The past may be gone forever..and whatever the future holds, our todays make the memories of tomorrow.
So, my lifetime friend, it is with all my heart that I send you my love, hoping that you'll always carry my smile with you, for all we have meant to each other and for whatever the future may hold.
I was doing my work.....and watching pictures in Flickr......Lot of valentines day special pictures are uploading continuously.......so i tried a bit.....
To me love doesn't mean to live happily ever after together and forever.....Love doesn't mean to celebrate every things together.......To me love means.........Just loving, whether she is with you or not.......
Happy Valentines Day
This tenement block was severely damaged in an explosion several months ago, resulting in everyone being evacuated from neighbouring properties for a good while and the road below closed.
On an exercise walk this week the light was quite good, so I took a couple of photos - it looks so peculiar to see a portion of the building just gone, covered with temporary wooden panels. It looks almost like one of those "cutaway" drawing that show the inner design of structures to let you see how they work.
Of course it isn't a cutaway design, it's a missing piece of what were people's homes, now gone. Sadly a life was lost in the explosion which destroyed this part of the block, although it could have been even worse given the end wall overlooks a school playground and the rubble fell in there (fortunately no children were there at the time). Scary how even the place we feel most secure can suddenly be taken apart.
I've been on a bit of a Flickr hiatus again. This time it has been for a sad reason, as Montana is no longer with us. After living 3 times longer than the average life expectancy for a cat diagnosed with congestive heart failure, his kidneys had enough.
We had to take him for an emergency veterinarian visit on Sunday, Feb. 26 where we learned that his kidneys were failing. We took him home to be in "kitty hospice", but by Monday noon, Feb. 27, he took a major turn for the worse and lost the use of his front and back legs, so we had him put to sleep. We couldn't bare to watch him suffer. It is always a hard decision to make, but it was the right decision and I am at peace with it. I miss him terribly, but will always have those precious memories.
Katydid -
Everyone tried to identify this thing but I've looked up each and every suggestion and none of the family knew their bugs. It was large and of course, it's missing an antennae so it must be smart enough to escape birds or lizards. Not too good on blending into its background though.
Enough to make me want to move to Canada (almost): www.flickr.com/photos/22217537@N08/3667970458/?addedcomme... The photo belongs to fyrrylikka, and this one will make you agree that we should all go visit.
Tewksbury State Hospital
Tewksbury, MA
October 26, 2019
The hospital was established in 1852 as one of three state almshouses needed to help care for the unprecedented influx of immigrants into Massachusetts at that time. The almshouses were the Commonwealth's first venture into caring for the poor, a duty which had previously been carried out by the cities and towns. Opened on May 1, 1854 with a capacity for 500, the almshouse population grew to 668 by the end of the first week, and to over 800 by May 20th. By December 2, 1854, 2,193 "paupers" had been admitted. Nearly 90% of these listed European countries as their birthplace. The almshouse reported having 14 employees at that time, and was spending 94.5 cents per week per resident.
In 1866 the almshouse began accepting the "pauper insane" becoming the state's first facility to specifically accept cases with the diagnosis of chronic insanity. By 1874 the facility had become diversified: 40% was used as a mental illness ward, 27% as a hospital ward, and 33% as an almshouse. The chronically ill population continued to grow, alcoholics were admitted for treatment, and programs providing therapeutic industrial and occupational therapy were added in the 1870's. A Home Training School for Nurses was established in 1894, and the school became a full-fledged three-year program in 1898.
The most famous patient in the almshouse during the 19th century was Anne Sullivan, who later became the tutor and companion of Helen Keller. Anne Sullivan spent four years at the almshouse (1876-1880) before being transferred to the Perkins School for the Blind, now located in Watertown, Massachusetts. At age 20 she left the school to go to Helen Keller's home in Alabama. One of the buildings on today's Tewksbury Hospital Campus is named for Ms. Sullivan.
Reflecting its changing mission, the Tewksbury Almshouse became Tewksbury State Hospital in 1900, the Massachusetts State Infirmary in 1909, and Tewksbury State Hospital and Infirmary in 1938. Over the years, facilities were added for treating tuberculosis and other contagious diseases such as smallpox, venereal diseases and typhoid fever. Meanwhile it continued to serve as a last resort for many patients in need of shelter and supervised care, especially during the late 1920's and 1930's.
this one's about all the lonely & lost souls...missing & never found & a fear of being all alone
It's bad enough loosing someone close to you but even worse not knowing where they are or what happened to them
Entered in the Shock of the New Challenge

Everything but the girl - Missing
Explored # 199 14.12.09
the horizon of our past is where I cast my eyes
and try to reel in one of those beautifully blurry memories
waiting for the warm winds to show up again
and carry away all that lies in our way
I miss you

Spotted this little guy in Carnie Woods today but didn't notice he had a missing paw until I uploaded the photo.
~No life is perfect

We must love & accept
with or without the MISSING PARTS!~
May we all love ourselves and one another. God bless.
