Remember 911

  Today, is a day that I will never forget --that horrible tragedy and all those who lost their lives.




   I can still remember exactly where I was that Tuesday morning and after the News reports started coming on, all I wanted was for my boys to be home from school and my hubby to be back home from work.  I can still remember that horrible scary feeling and almost not being able to believe what had happened, it seemed so surreal. 


   I also remember in the weeks the followed how nice everyone was, and how much it made me realize how lucky I was and how thankful I was for my family and friends.   I know sometimes in our daily lives, we do forget how lucky we are, but whenever I think of 911 or other tragic losses, it always reminds me to cherish every day.

  My heart is with all of those who lost some a loved one on that  tragic day.  My they all take comfort in knowing how much we all care and how very sorry we all are.    Bless you all !




  God Bless America! 
Please keep our Troops safe from harm.

I remember that day too... sitting on the other side of the world in South Africa. I was walking past our Video Conference Room when the technical guy came out shouting that the Twin Towers had been hit. I didn't even know what the TT were... I walked into the VCRoom and there on the screen was a video (live newsclip) of the aeroplane going into the one of the buildings. It looked like a scene from one of the movies... everyone charged to the VCR and we sat there absolutely horrified and dumbstruck! Our hearts go out to all Americans. What an absolute tragedy.

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
