Be yourself

Be true to you...with a little help
make the connection
say what you feel
and smile, more

Word for 2011

My word of the year is TRY.
I give up too easily,
I don't start because I think I'll never finish,
This year if it looks interesting,
if it looks worthwhile,
if it's something I always wanted to do,
well, this year I'm going to TRY
and lets see how much more I can achieve

For goodness sake

I'm saying hello all with a heavy heart. 
I've regained my blog, but I've lost a treasure.  
Today my lovely, outstanding and amazing, I mean a.m.a.z.i.n.g 79 years-young father Don died.  He left a brother, two sisters, four children, twenty grandchildren, nine greatgrandchildren, 
many special friends, his local church congregation, and the Deaf sign language community in the U.K. at a loss as to how they will ever fill the huge gap he leaves in all their lives.
He was the most loving, considerate, giving and compassionate of men.
And he overcame enormous obstacles with grace and hard work.
His motto was 'sacrifice before self'.
You would love him too if you'd the luck to know him, I know that.
(whoops, he'd be much better at this techno stuff than I am, and have a giggle at my ineptitude)
I'll miss him forever.
Byebye Dad
Love you
and give Mam a hug from us
