I am a bit late with my post, but I did want to take the time to remember all of those who sacrificed everything so that we can be free from oppression. Let’s hope that we respect their sacrifice and preserve those freedoms for everyone. As we celebrate and take the day off, let us pause and spare a thought for those brave men and women. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers as you enjoy your Memorial Day.

 

Photos were taken at the Arizona Memorial in Hawaii. We respect those who died here, but we include everyone from all the Armed Services and honor their sacrifice.

 

Have a safe and Happy Memorial Day.

Feeling the cold rain on the skin, remembering all the storms weathered in a lifetime, realizing that every challenge has left a strength as deep as the earth itself. The hardest rain doesn’t come to destroy us; it comes to reveal the strength we didn’t know we had.

Old school viewers might recognise this stripy little number from a few years back. ( alright alright.. 4 years ago! )

 

Since reliable sources have informed me that animal prints will be coming back this fall... I thought I might try this dress on again. :)

 

So yeah.. an older dress, but don't worry... I have quite a few new ones from recent shopping trips!

 

Oh.. btw.. the shoes *are* new! Which shoes do you think fit better? These or the red ones?

Lo scheletro spigoloso dei ricordi impolverati bussa nella memoria, molle e insistente. Lascio che mi disturbi per un po'. Solo per un po'.

With August almost gone, I'm not ready to move on to Fall yet because it's a pretty short season here and then we have the long, long winter.. I still can't believe how fast Spring and Summer have flown by. Here's one of my favorite Spring images.

Ci sono cose. Piccole cose che non dimenticherò, che sono niente e invece restano più forti di tutto.

- Margaret Mazzantini

Remembering my big brave boy - he came to live with me after he'd been ill-treated. I saw his photo on the rescue centre website & knew he was the cat I wanted, but was shocked how big he was when I saw him as I'd only had small cats before. Once settled with me he was a gentle giant. He loved this toy (designed for rabbits!). Happy Caturday.

 

Original message:

Only a "snap" - but had to share this photo of Charlie. The ball contains tiny biscuits, hence the need for such concentration.

56103, 60022 and 66023 make up the front line of locomotives in this evening view of Margam TMD. There are at least 8 other Class 60's on the depot. Margam was a 2-road shed with full servicing facilities. Having been a major repair depot for EWS's class 60 and 66 locomotives due to its facilities, the depot serviced all of EWS's fleet of locomotives in South Wales, after the closure of Cardiff Canton TMD. In September 2008, all services moved to Margam Knuckle Yard and the depot was subsequently demolished. Taken circa 1998.

Dedicated to Michael Sembolo. Another crazy Italian-American. Best known as the guy who did "Maniac", I remember him for the soundtrack of a mostly forgotten movie that I loved long ago: Summer Lovers.

 

If only I could return to my 20s...

SKIPPIN' SCHOOL

Remember the younger school days of feeling like a rebel?

You feel untouchable and you think "Life couldn't get any better".

Life was so carefree and full of promises.

You wake up each day with wonder and a sense of adventure.

Skipping school and hanging with the "IN" crowd, doing naughty things.

Smoking in the bathroom and making out behind the bleachers.

Breaking hearts and playing with LOVE like it's a new discovery.

Dreaming of the future where you can be what you want to be.

Staying up all night believing that all dreams come true

and planning to see the world in grand style.

Those were the days and here's hoping you still believe in your dreams

and you never lost that sense of adventure. <3

Remembrance Day - Veteran's Memorial Park

Where were you on September 11th, 2001?

 

I was at work, huddled around the TV in the lounge with all my co-workers. We watched the towers fall. The world seemed dark and confusing...like a bad dream.

 

I am an American and a Christian. I have many Muslim friends around the world. I have no hatred towards those of the Islamic faith. They are a kind and generous people. A few evil men do not define an entire entire religion.

 

As I remember the events that took place 9 years ago, I pray for all my brothers and sisters around the world, regardless of race, nationality or religion. I also pray for justice. May God pour out his love on all those who promote peace and freedom, and may He pour out his wrath on all those who promote violence and terror.

 

God bless!

NOI SIAMO ANCORA QUI

 

Siamo ancora qui

non lo dimenticare

E saremo dovunque

Se ci vuoi trovare

Siamo ancora qui

Non lo dimenticare

Passeranno gli anni ma

Di noi non ti scordare.

 

IL RITORNELLO DALLA CANZONE DI MARCO CASALESE " SIAMO ANCORA QUI"

  

WE ARE STILL HERE

 

We are still here

do not forget

And we are everywhere

If we want to find

We are still here

Do not forget

Years passed, but

Do not forget us.

 

From the SONG OF MARCO Casalese "WE STILL HERE"

 

Remember postcards on which the sender has written so much that s/he can barely squeeze in the signature?

 

When I don't have time to write a full letter, I send one of my postcards (get them made at MOO) with a word or two.
