Hello everyone! Welcome to the year 2016! It always seems (to me and my folks anyway) that the years keep flying by! One moment it's the start of 2015, and before you know it it's the new year already!!! And a whole lot of things can happen in one year, it can wear you out 
! There have been some sad times last year ( Cecil the Lion's death, attack on Paris), but we should always remember the good things that happened as well.
On a less political note, 2015 was (sort of) the year of the dinosaur with the successful release of Jurassic World
and the recent release of The Good Dinosaur . I can only hope that 2016 will bring more good things than bad! In either case, here's wishing everyone a happy new year!!!

Second saddest day of my life.
For those who don't know, my dad had been suffering from unknown respiratory problems for over a month, and it had reached its worst a couple weeks ago. So bad I had to call emergency! The doctors did all they could to keep him stable, and for a couple days it seemed like he'd pull through. Unfortunately, he hadn't been responding to the medications they were giving him. And so it was decided that, for better or for worse...................we had to let him go. Yesterday we took the chance to see him and say our goodbyes and say we loved him. He finally passed around 2 AM this morning. This is something a friend on DA did for his dad. It felt appropriate to share here. It seems so unfairly surreal, that it was just over a year ago my mother passed away, now my father as well. It's going to be a long, hard road to recover from this now that both of my beautiful, wonderful parents are now both passed. But I have
In a funk
For starters, my dad came down with a severe case of pneumonia and is hospitalized. I didn't know how bad he was until early last Friday when he had such a hard time breathing! I was scared to death! Thankfully emergency was able to help him breathe better. He's stable at the moment; but on a ventilator, taking antibiotics, and awaiting results of a bronchioscopy. But what I wanna talk about is closer to the DA community. Lately several artists have gotten banned for their mature work. Some with warning, and others without! I didn't watch them, but I did like their work. I don't know who the new staff are, but they're pushing out good artists that have been loyal patrons here for years! From what I gather, over the fact their stuff wasn't behind some paywall. 9-9 *sigh* I guess I'm just having a hard time keeping up with these things. If there is anyone who can help explain what DA is going through, don't be afraid to share. *sigh* The month of September is becoming my least
Mother's Day 2023
It's a different kind of Mother's Day for me today. It's been over nine months since my mother passed away, but I still "celebrate" her. Today I went to my local Hallmark store where a friend of her works. She told me how much she missed my mother and that meant a lot to me. I got a card and am burning a candle in her memory, because she loved candles so much. I hope everyone else is having a happy mother's day. I know a few of my friends here are having a hard time themselves, but I pray for you all and hope that things become better for you and that you recover well. :) Happy Mother's Day everyone.
A Blue Christmas
This will be the first Christmas without my mother since her passing. I'm not sure how I'm going to feel for the next couple days through new year's, but I just wanna take this moment to wish everyone a merry Christmas to all. Love and cherish all of your loved ones, remember all the good times you've had, and give thanks to all the blessings in your lives. I'd like to share a song with everyone. It holds a very special place in my heart now that my mother is gone. I always got emotional listening to this song even long before now. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Have a Merry Christmas everyone.
