Funerals

Well it's been a couple of weeks since my last post.... again, sigh I'm a bad blogger :P

The past couple of days has been all around sucky. Why you may ask? Well a very good friend lost her grandmother last week and it was prayers and funeral time. I try to avoid going to those at all costs, but this was one I couldn't blow off. The friend is to all intents and purposes Brittany's godmother (if we would have baptized her). Brittany pooped, peed and did that projectile vomit babies are famous for on her. Just because we haven't kept in touch over the past couple of years doesn't mean I don't care about or miss her. It's at times like this I wish I had a working scanner so I could post some pics of her. I took Brittany to the prayers last night but I couldn't justify her missing school today as she would know less people than I did. However Carol did say that she would give us a call before she goes back to Winnipeg next week. I'd like to spend some time with her and catch up on everything and maybe this time continue to keep in touch. I know she'll be in my prayers along with the others.

Later all and Be Well

Osama

When I heard about Bin Laden being killed I had several mixed emotions. First, I was relieved that he would no longer be around to terrorize anymore people. Second, was I hope they fed him to the fishes and that his followers would not be able to make a shrine for him. Now I'm not american so I haven't lived with all the terror that they have but I do have some people that I call friends who do live in the States. One of them has a blog that I read on a regular basis and his post today is one that made me think on Osama's death. How people have been celebrating and others have been openly criticizing them, saying they have no compassion and are inhumane. I like Wind's viewpoint and how he made sense of it. So I invite you to go read his blog and see if you feel the same way.

Later all and Be Well
