online again




[deep breath]
Well... after much time has passed, I am finally typing a blog post from the comfort of my own home! [Mom, I figured it out somehow. Bubb, thanks for the tips!]
In my last post I said I wouldn't post till after new years. I lied, sorry.
This is just my way of "getting the news out" that I'm "independently online" again.
[the photos are of the box my Mother's gift was in]
Hope you had a blessed & peaceful Christmas.

P.S. there are many more photos to come....

poem fragment

The Endless Poem [or The Poem of Infinity]

[christmas... the birth of hope]
a child is born this night
a boy
a son
the light (& hope)
of the world
of the created universe
born without defect
to accept all defects
born to rid poeple like me
of our wounds & scars
yet keep the ones
I've put on Him
this boy
this man
is tangible hope not "I hope so" hope
hope I can "hang with"
hope that will never get lost
hope that refuses to die
the man born this day
is different than all others
born of his own choosing
will allow us to beat him
kill him
so that
by doing so
he
can save us
...from ourselves.

This man
This "Prince of God"
is heir
to an unchallengable kingdom
a son
who's father
is ageless
matchless
fathumless
insurmountable
untamable
unmeasurable
...
[end of this fragment]


Remember...
What's under the tree
isn't nearly as wonderful, valuable, or priceless...
as who put it there.

the real gifts at Christmas
are around the tree
what's under it are post it notes
to remind you of them.

Poeple are the best gifts.

Merry Christmas,
B

Ok, a long over due update

My pc has been down for a few months, this you knew...
I now know my local "c" drive is bad [it has bad "sectors" on it]. I may have lost some of my poems, music, & photos. [ouch!]
The good news is: I got a new hard drive. Which my Sister-in-law's boyfriend is installing.
He's recovering all he can from my bad drive, & moving it onto this new one.
So I should be up & going in Jan. I've had lots of post ideas, but running to someone else's pc to write & post them just isn't me.
So as of about 4:30 here, what ever I post today will be the last I post till Jan 2010.


Have a wonderful Christmas & New Years!
