The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

just a quick note of a sad anniversary.

Today is a sad anniversary date,on this date in 1984 my dad passed away. He was 58.I really miss him. I will always. The pain I felt that day had diminished,his loss still hurts. Dad you gave me a lot to work with as did Mom. I love and miss the both of you.

A side note and it may sound silly. I know the two of then are dancing up a storm to the big bands that they used to go to here on earth. I also know that he is having fun bowling as he did and even getting a round of golf in. I bet the courses are just grand.

  1. My Mom's been gone for 5 years now and I miss her too. I am blessed to have my Dad here yet. He is 77 years old. I think it's great that you are able to think of your parents having a grand time in heaven!

  2. The really great thing is when it is my turn to go home I'll be able to go bowling with him again. I miss that.

  6. Hi Mike, thanks for visiting via Jeff for my blog anniversary.
    My parents have both been gone some time now too but I still miss them alot.
    Their wedding anniversary is the 18th.
    So I know how you feel and it's not silly at all to have that thought of them because my parents also loved the big bands!!
    Have a nice weekend. Mary

  9. Pea, I'm sorry for you lose as well. At least I got to have my Dad untill I was an adult. My Grand Father passed away when Dad was 5 and His Brother Evan was 2.

  11. Beautiful thoughts about your father, Mike. My parents are both starting to decline pretty quickly. Dad will be 85 in November and Mom is 76. Lately, she is confused and combative.

    Have a great day.

  13. I know how it feels... My dad passed away at 61 (12 years ago), my mum 2 years ago. I miss both of them. Let's take good care of ourselves so they can be proud of us! Thanks for your kind comment on my update!

  14. Tink, Thank you for stopping by.
    Yes we need to take care of ourselves to keep going and make our parents proud of us.
    I Know that Dad is proud of me,even if he could not say I could tell it in his eyes that last day. Mom told me she was proud of me before she went home to be with my Dad and the family.
