So weird , I know!<br /><br />Your concern for Boomer and family really is heart warming even if it is difficult for you. The fires in your state and the waters in Alberta have set us all on edge waiting for the next because Mother Nature is so active this year!<br /><br />Ronfromsophiesviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532257840856313054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-28919342497525135222013-06-22T17:27:33.605-06:002013-06-22T17:27:33.605-06:00Oh Louise.

And to be carrying this around for years as well. However, you have managed to exorcise this experience and maybe see it more objectively now than keeping it inside.<br />I too think that we tend to underestimate what not only children can and do experience but what certain adults are capable of experiencing. I believe you are very finely tuned in to 'things' we mere mortals are not connected to. Just a hunch.<br />I have had those nights, not many mind you, when sleep is the farthest thing from my mind. Can be difficult the next day!<br />Hey, take care and good to see you back.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11199777195853274898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-60899171145108725872013-06-22T10:33:29.451-06:002013-06-22T10:33:29.451-06:00Hi Paul!

I've been very busy and preoccupied these past few weeks, so I haven't been visiting blogs the way I want to. But I knew that you are one of those who who are awake at 3:30! I hope that you are making good physical progress and that maybe you are already in your new home. I get back to my blog buds better very soon I hope. Take care.

We haven't heard a lot here about the Calgary floods, but they have been very much on my mind. My family is okay. I've talked to them all. My sister Barb told me that water rose up to the 14th row in the Saddledome.<br />Now that was a graphic image I could get. She told me thousands of people have signed up as volunteers to pull the Stampede off. If anybody can do it, it will be Calgarians and other Albertans.

Anoth...Thank you for your lovely comment, Audrey! <br />Another "Weezy!" I actually have a cousin named Claire Louise, so close in name to your Clara. Louise is actually my middle name. My parents wanted to call me Louise, but Myrtle Louise MacBeath flowed better than Louise Myrtle MacBeath. I haven't been on line the way I want to because my life has been really hectic, but I do think of you all and Hubbell. I'll get back on track here soon!

Smells are very provocative. They can instantly zap you back into a time and a places<br />a lifetime ago. I have been sleeping better these last few nights!

I am relieved that you are all fine. That was a rough night, but I got a lot out by writing the story about that long ago night. I don't know what it is about Boomer, but I feel a connection with him somewhat like I feel for SophieDoodle! I can't explain it! Have a great day!Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-40939206145783866372013-06-22T10:02:45.810-06:002013-06-22T10:02:45.810-06:00Hi Rebecca!

I love how you feel when you wake up after a night like that. <br /><br />I am fortunate to have lots of old photos from both sides of my family. I'm trying to identify and organize them, so I can pass old stories on to my nieces and nephews, so they won't lose our family history!!! <br /><br />I think horses are some of the most beautiful living beings in the world, even if I'm scared of them. <br /><br />Keep writing your amazing blog! There is only one you ~ ever!!!! You'll treasure your posts when you get to look back many years from now, and you realize just how amazing you really are. I find all people amazing, when I really stop and listen to their stories. I hope you are all doing well. <br /><br />Do you know that Singapore is one of my most favorite cities in the world!!!!! I'm so sad that you are having all that smog. I have wonderful memories of my visits to Singapore. Did you ever see Gracie, the dugong, at the aquarium at Sentosa? I loved Gracie, although it is sad she wasn't in the wild. But maybe when people see her, they will realize just how important it is to protect our environment. And maybe they will realize that animals have important rights too; that we share their world as much as they share ours.<br /><br />Take care! <br /><br />Right now there is a terrible flood where my three sisters and their families live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. fortunately my family lives on hills or terraces well above the Bow River, so they are all okay. But so many people (and animals and plants) in another city I love are suffering badly from this flood. But Calgarians have amazing spirits, and they will so rise above this disaster!<br /><br />You have an awesome day!

LOL I think if you don't have those hated nights at some point, then you have never really lived. I'm thinking that part of the reason I wrote a poem a few days ago was because of experimenting with rhyme and reading your blog. You just cut loose and let her rip which I love! My "poem" doesn't have many rhymes! LOL! Hope all is well with you!

But they remind me that no matter how it all ends or how tough a path I may have to walk, it is worth it, because I got to live. What an unimaginable gift that is: TO BE! I AM! Someday it will be I WAS. So what? I WAS!!!!! And hopefully, those horses had magnificent horse moments; they got TO BE! Maybe as an OE, you'll get this totally Keith! <br />Have a great day!Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-80067316988744791512013-06-22T02:55:37.638-06:002013-06-22T02:55:37.638-06:00It must have been a frightening experience!.

I do have nights like that when I toss and turn and think of all kinds of crazy, random things. Like you, I've also had horrendous luck with horses and have a terrible fear because of those experiences. My daughter Clara's middle name is Louise and I often call her "Weezy". I was so thrilled when I read that is one of your nicknames as well. I love the name "Louise" so much that I've often regretted not using it as her first name.
