about ode2joy
I enjoy life and the beauty that exists around me. One reason I love photography is I may help make someone else open their eyes to the wonder that exists everywhere. Another reason is: my father loved photography and this is something I inherited from him. I like to think he would be proud of me. I have been married 35 years and have a 25 year old son. I am a nurse and love people.

It is really sad to hear things like that. :( I still think it should all be turned over to the police - that is the only way predators are stopped from going after other victims. Sleep well, and I hope you'll feel better when you wake up. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

According to my son, that's an awesome movie, so I'm sure you will enjoy it. You will be missed, but I hope you will have a grand time with hubby. :) Have a blessed day. {{{HUGS}}}

Thank you for your support. I'm just ready to put the past behind me AND let others know that they need to be very careful who they trust.

This cat really is sweet. He's actually sweeter than the one that I have. Dexter is lucky that I don't believe in trading up or he'd be out on the street and the stray one would be hanging out in here. LOL

We also like Cause for Paws because it benefits animals.
Our house is near the corner of Johnston County Road and Benjamin Lane if you know where that is.
And I'll most likely be quizzing you regarding what else is available in FV. We know bits and pieces of it because of going to Guardian Angel, but I'm sure there's more there than we know.
I know there's a Bank of America out there, though not sure where. So if you know that, it would be great.
We are getting so excited.
God bless.

And Lord only knows, I'm a sucker for hot fudge sundaes - just like our mom was. ;o)
Will be moving that week, and then leaving for PA from 7/1 to 7/20, so maybe more near the end of July or beginning of August. Does that sound ok?
With love.
God bless.

I've been using a Nikon D50 since December 2006, and it's still going strong (and I hope it won't die now that I've said that)! I've just been a snapshot photographer since around 2000/2001. As time passed, I started taking pictures of any and everything, and it's all evolved from there.
That bird & snake picture sounds incredible! A once-in-a-lifetime shot, it sounds like -- I can imagine it now.

The tree that came crashing down was a Bradford Pear that had gotten uncontrollably huge & heavy. The weight of the rain snapped it in half, and we had to cut the other half down last week.
Sugar maples look great in the fall, too -- the downtown in the town where I grew up had them lining the streets, and every year Main Street would turn a bright yellow/red/orange for a few weeks.

If the blog is not "calling someone out" then you can repost at will. Knowing you, you are just gathering info and have no harmful intent.
If the blog is personal, then be prepared for other goloers to challenge you... as in a blog about family issues. However, if you feel that you posted an interesting blog at a slow time, then reposting is just fine.

You can repost a blog anytime after it leave the front marque list. Repost to your hearts content. Most just copy the blog and picture and put repost in large letters I think. There may be another computer way but that is all I do.
