here & there

first...my heart is with dear karen in this difficult time. if you have a moment, drop by this lovely lady's blog & give her a kind word & a cyber hug.
Requiem eternam
Requiem eternam dona eis
Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis
Requiescant in pace
Amensecond...annie, you read my mind in the 24 may post! your comments echo my thoughts exactly. i didn't even write a poem for one single impression though i thought the photos conveyed the sentiments adequately. if you would like a whirlwind poetic adventure, please visit OSI where the prompt this week is 'dropped'.finally...a hint as to why all the blog-laziness...in just 48 hours we will be winging our way to this glorious place! i will no doubt breathe a huge sigh of relief as all the busy-ness of daily life & how one might condense 2 months worth of chores into 1 settles into a restful week with the family followed by 2 weeks of italian lessions & finally a grand adventure with melissa! stay tuned for travel updates!!

A trip like that would be so very worth the chore condensation required! :)

thinking of you, dear friend,
and have passed on your words
to my neighbor jean.

your spirit is encouraging,
as always.

i posted about Lido today
and
should have dedicated it to you
as i might not have gone
had you not mentioned
your fun there.

no sea glass
but lots of glazed
white and blue tile pieces...

which i love, too.

i hope you are have the Best Time.
i know these Rome journeys

be there at the Same Time.
