I tried several times, but she felt too nervous. Such a shame really, because it meant keeping contacts with our far-flung family so much more difficult. I'm looking forward to keeping in touch with my new granddaughter using webcams and so on.Sheilahttp://apostcardaday.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35775558.post-13688201213125492772009-10-28T22:08:43.369-07:002009-10-28T22:08:43.369-07:00On lazy days, I sit and enjoy reading blogs like ...On lazy days, I sit and enjoy reading blogs like yours. I agree with Icy, this will suffice while I miss my own mom who is miles away in the Philippines. You are fortunate to have this time with her.

I saw that this weekend on an 81 year old woman, Dorothty, my sisters mothere in law, she has been through Cancer so many times and now again. <br />I saw her face this weekend, I saw her standing at the Island in her kitchen, she looked lonely, sad, lost, so alone, it broke my heart, I just needed to be with her again , even if I just came from seeing her 20 mins before. if I can make her laugh and feel not so lonely for another few mins then I feel better.. I know how hard it is being so far away from your parents. mine are 3000 miles away. It takes me 3 hours to fly there and another 3-4 hours if i drive ( rental car ) or it can take up to 6 if I have to depend on a taxi.<br />I hope you enjoy your stay. Blessings to you and your mumAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35775558.post-61001229510287394282009-10-28T00:36:35.594-07:002009-10-28T00:36:35.594-07:00happy bonding!happy bonding!magiceyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17848851692951192508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35775558.post-90129370936036860192009-10-27T16:13:47.313-07:002009-10-27T16:13:47.313-07:00Hi Carmen, Thanks for your nice comments on my Su...Hi Carmen, Thanks for your nice comments on my Sunday Roast at Eddie Bluelights'. I really appreciate.<br /><br />You have a wonderful blog, I've been reading older posts to get to know you. <br /><br />I hope your trip to Georgia with your Mom is wonderful. It sure started great with three seats together on the plane! You are living right!<br /><br />Both my mom and I have lupus too. No meds is a tough way to go for some but if she's feeling okay maybe she's in a remission period (fingers crossed. If it's amy consolation, I have to fight my mom all the time to take hers meds.<br /><br />I'll be back again soon to visit. Have a great vacation!<br /><br />xoJoanna Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10836376588710862173noreply@blogger.com
