Virgin Mary: Gift from a Friend


When my friend gifted me with this statue of our blessed Virgin Mary, I first thought that her location should be where she would greet my visitors.  After all, she would be the first sighting when each drove up my driveway.  Then I realized that I wanted to see her up close and personal.  So, below is the place where she resides now.
Blessed is Mary,
 virgin, yet Mother of all
who trust in her Son.

Yes, I can imagine you do want her 'up close and personal' and sure she wants that too. x

The big surprise I got when my friend said that I'd be able to put the statue in my car (what! by myself?)was that it's made of a lightweight material, yet it looks like concrete.

Among my greatest treasures are the Mary's that have been given to me during my lifetime. Yours is a treasure, She and the friend.
What a beautiful presence among your flowers!

Best wishes,

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
