for my birthday, my daughter (who works for apple) got me an iphone.. yes, i was using an old motorola flip-phone until now...like a geriatric captain kirk.. and i wondered why people had been giving me those strange looks before.... .

anyway, imagine my reaction to the mammoth technology contained in an iphone.. talk about a miracle, this qualifies.. i'm particularly impressed by the onboard gps.

i can type in a destination and the phone already knows exactly where i am and will plot a destination map onscreen.

I don't have an iphone or smartphone, however I just recently made the switch over to an imac from my older pc and I'm really liking it. I downloaded some cool apps from the applestore online.

I really like the app of Relax Melodies with all different sound effect and ambiences. I downloaded the free one and liked it so much I got the full version for only $4.99. I like the mixture of the sound of forest rain and thunder.

Security demands that the POTUS not travel commercial economy class, or stay in the Motel 6

You mean all the heightened security measures that the Patriot Act, TSA security and all these other measures cannot ensure the safety of our POTUS? The Danish royal family travel on commercial airplanes in Denmark just like everybody else. Just sayin.

The music that moves you....

once when i was profoundly sad for too many days, my brother in law sent us a mix tape.

he named each song after a person in our family.

this is the one he named heather.

friends

my father, who has alzheimers, is dying now (he's 85).

i saw him today - he weaves in and out.

hasn't recognized me for a long time but was usually glad for the company.

So sorry that you are going through this. I watched my dad go through cancer this time last year, him bald, skin and bone and weak. I did get to spend some time with him before he died at the end of May but I didn't get to spend as much time as we had such bad weather last year. Now 8 months later I still feel like a wreck mentally thinking about him no longer being here and I still feel a little bit of anxiety with him not being a phone call away. I always hated going to him when I needed anything and would always wanted to appear self sufficient, idependent and self-reliant but just the feeling that he was there made me feel okay and now I feel like a rug has been pulled out from under me. Take comfort in your loved ones at this time.

Peace
