I drove my daughter (Danielle) back to Rochester today (She is getting her Masters and PhD via an Ithaca program at The Univ of Rochester Med School) and she mentioned on the five hour drive there Steve Irwin and she was sad, too, but I wasn't sure what to say so I told her the story of my sister almost dying last week from a miss-prescribed drug and her e-mail to friends and family stating that life IS short and unpredictable so count your blessings and love your friends and family. And LIVE your life to its fullest. Its all about love.
Otherwise, I had such a GREAT weekend at the Miss Junior Teen America event and got asked to photograph two more!!!! SO, I am thinking--weddings, pageants, portraits,and headshots of pageant contestants might prove to make 2007 a very good year.
Sage and kind words, Bruce. Much appreciated and taken to heart. Thank you.
Now, I've got to bootstrap myself out of my melancholy party and see what you and everyone else has been up to. I am SOOO glad that this weekend went SO well. I can "hear" it in your tone. :-)

It's a bittersweet time of year for me, always. Feeling it a bit more acutely this year. Waiting for the wind to blow it all away (this melancholy) and then welcome the colors and scents and essence of fall properly, with open arms and heart. Thank you sweet Jane...I hope he does too.
I love you my always there, Jody. I just can't believe Steve is gone. I can't believe these links I am seeing that it was caught on tape. I can't imagine watching. I just can't fathom it... (humanity shudders) ~ Burt is still just breaking my heart and fighting. He still responds to my voice, but I don't want to stimulate him anymore. He struggles. E put him in a small little tank, so he wouldn't have to labor so far to the top to breathe. Added some more tetracycline to maybe ..just maybe?? If this goes on much longer, though... I am considering the clove oil option to ease his suffering.
He is totally sideways today. :(.....
I just can't imagine the actual dropping of the oil in his water, though. I prayed that he would just let go last night, but he is still fighting it.
*The love from the Burghside is SO appreciated and felt in the holler, hun...and I will spread it around. xoxoxoxo &hearts *
