In Memory of Michael Jackson

After watching the Memorial yesterday, I felt compelled to put this montage together on Slide.com and hope you enjoy it.

    I watched the service last night on TV. It had been telecast here in Australia the following evening for those who didn't sit up at 3am to watch it live.

    I found it to be an extremely moving service and who wouldn't be touched by what was said and seen?

    I've not really followed his life, although I enjoyed his music, and learnt things I didn't know about him last night.

    Thanks for putting this together - it is really well done.

"Hiking the Paria Canyon, Arizona"

Image
My son Steven, wife Eileen and her brother Lee decided to take a trip to the Paria Canyon, just west of Lee's Ferry down by the Colorado River. It was a 38 mile hike which took them about a week to go in and come back out. What a trip. They still had plenty of pictures to share with me when I visit. They both love to hike. They've already hiked the Grand Canyon, Havasupai Canyon and now the Paria Canyon.

The war had begun and it was given the operation name “Desert Storm”. My son Steven was in the marines and already had traveled to the Philippines, Germany and then he was sent to Saudi Arabia where he and several other marines would push through to Kuwait. His responsibility was to defuse land mines placed in the desert floor by the enemy. My husband Richard and I and children all nestled snug in our beds in Mesa, Arizona while all of this was going on. We fervently prayed each night for his and his fellow soldiers safety and protection. I believed in my heart that he would return but it was very difficult to think of him in harms way. He is my eldest son and I spent years preparing him for his future as a leader. Many months passed with no word from him. Steven was stationed there from August to the month of March the following hear. During Christmas I put up a special tree, a small pine with lights which would be called “Steven’s tree”. Since he was not there we were to remember him...

Working, the Good and Bad

I've been working over a month now. I was checking my care.com site and there was work involving taking care of a 75 year old woman. It involves preparing food, making up her bed, changing her depends which could sometimes be messy (the bad part). I also play games like Scrabble and 500 Rummy. I also do dishes and laundry and right now my hand is sore probably due to folding clothes.  One day I went in and the dishes were piled up and the laundry included about six loads. I would say it's been beneficial in having a good relationship with a lovely Christian woman and being able to share some of my pictures and music with her. She enjoys being entertained. She asks for very little and probably would like to get out of the house once in a while. Her daughter teaches at a Christian Elementary school and her son-in-law is a cook at a Christian camp.  I do wish I could work at a desk but for now I'm thankful to the Lord for the work I do have. I'm so used to shufflin...
