A Prayer

Dear Lord,

I pray for Wisdom to understand my man;

Love to forgive him;

And Patience for his moods.

Because, Lord, if I pray for Strength,

I'll beat him to death.



AMEN

Isn't She Lovely...




This is my daughter Kelly. She is 19 almost 20. She has Cerebral Palsy and is totally disabled. This is her first prom! She was so excited. And she just looked so beautiful I had to post it here. I am so proud. She is the light of my life. Kelly can't talk and walks very clumsily. She is totally dependent on someone else to take care of her. She is like a two year old. She is a full time job but she is so worth it!

I Love You Kelly!

Running of the Bulls

Of course I participated and had a blast! I even convinced my guild mates to attend. My best friend and guild leader and his son attended. It was an awesome turnout and much fun. The guild filled to capacity and then some. There was dancing and a conga line. There were baby cows galore! People (like me) were there 4 hours prior to the race. I had created Mooina days before and logged on to see who may be about. To my surprise there were around 10-15 others already on! Of course I stayed and got into contact by vent, with my guild mates. Two showed up and we proceeded to dance, play some simon says, participate in spelling out BRK, just hanging out waiting for the race to begin.

BRK showed up, so did Ratshag (no finer orc can be found anywhere!). Hecatuul handed out shirts to those of us early enough to get one! Thanks to him for the hard work!

Finally the race begins, the lag gets us at the first hill and the baby tauren pile up. We move on up through the barrens, my guild mate dies in Camp Taurajo and tries to catch back up but can't, in Orgrimmar (I just missed the first zeppelin and had to wait for the second one), past Undercity through Silverpine following the path of dead bodies and skeletons. The mage at Dalaran got me and I died but rezzed and carried on. Through to Arathi and a raptor got me the next time. Rez and on toward Hammerfall. As I am almost to Hammerfall, I see everyone headed back! I don't know where they are going but I turn around and fall in! I find out we are headed to Iron Forge! I make it all the way to the front gates and beyond to the Military Ward before I die again. I rez and go a few feet and die again. They are headed to the tram. I get almost to the tunnel and there is a massive pile of bodies there. Rezzing and running back with as many ghosts as there were live tauren was a hoot! Making it through the portal to the tram only to find 5 or more allies there waiting to kill you was a sight to see. Bodies everywhere. I find then I am in the graveyard at the Eastvale Logging Company. I made it to Goldshire before I had to log off for supper.

Thanks to BRK and Ratshag for the great event!

My condolences to Sharvan's family. May God be with you and comfort you in your time of sorrow. I was happy and honored to take part in such a special event.

Of course, Moooo for Sharvan!

:) Pictures later!
