    I remember being young and how the senses were all so much more sensitive as well as being in wonderment and awe at the creations of God!

    I've been neglecting you, jrebel7!

    I've also lost your phone number... again!!

    Am house and dog sitting again where I usually do. Phone system is not working here though. Kind of scary for me, because if something happens to one of the dogs or me!

    Hopefully, the phone situation will be fixed tomorrow.

    YouTube - Phantom of the Opera (Learn to be lonely) - 127k


    This is a beautiful song. I didn't care much for the singer who played the Phantom in the movie. No one could surpass Michael Crawford.:) I have so much to be thankful for but sometimes I feel so lost. I don't know why! Wonderful husband , kids, friends, grandchildren,siblings you all here on AMHD. I am blessed! Love the video with Bella.

    We never know the pain of loss until we lose someone. We never know the feeling of joy until we love someone more than we love ourselves. We never experience the feeling of accomplishment until we fail and pick ourself up and try until we succeed. Remember there has to be rain and storms, before there is is a rainbow!. kk:)
