Flashback Friday ~ My Best Friend Sue, Gone But Always in My Heart!

.


Friday Photo Flashback


Alicia from More Than Words says she started Friday Photo Flashback because "I have so many pictures from my PRE-digital camera days. I thought it would be fun to scan them and share them here with you.. I'm having so much fun doing this, that I would love for you to join me, too! So dig out the photo albums and put your scanner to good use! Don't forget to link up so we can all visit and comment on each others blogs!"

Sunday the 22nd would have been my best friend in the whole world, Sue's birthday. Sue and I were best friends for over 30 years, she was maid-of-honor in my wedding to Bill and I was maid-of-honor in her wedding.

My Wedding - 1997


She was the kind of friend that you could call on the phone at any time day or night and with just the word "hello" either one of us could tell what mood the other was in and say, "I'll be right over."

It was really hard on us both when I moved to Florida because it meant that we wouldn't be seeing each other at least once a week and on the phone every day. She spent my last day in Connecticut with me, while I finished packing and getting the cars ready to take the trip. When she left we both hugged and cried for a long time.

We still kept in contact with each other via the phone, letters, cards, and e-mail, but it just wasn't the same. I missed her SO much.

Then our contact got less and less, but when we would talk, it would be for hours and it was like we never even lost contact. Until letters, cards, and phone calls I sent or made weren't returned... until I got an anniversary card that simply said "Love, Sue" - it just wasn't like her at all.

It was 2009, and I remember the phone call like it was yesterday - it came from Sue's daughter, Kimberly. Sue was in the hospital.... she was extremely sick, she had been hiding it from me. She had kidney cancer that had spread to her lungs, metasticized and was now in heart failure, she didn't have long to live.

Normally I would do what she would have done for me, jumped on a plane and gone to be with her... but I couldn't do that. I had major spinal surgery 6 weeks before this happened and I could barely walk, let alone get on an airplane. I was devastated, my best friend in the whole world had to go through the worst thing in her life without me. I know she knew in her heart, she knew I was there with her in my heart - we were always like that for each other, there is no way it would end now.

So although Sue has been gone from this world for 3 years, she will never be gone from my heart.... Happy birthday my dear friend, I love you and I miss you, and I will never forget you!!!


Sue's Nursing School Graduation Party - 2000

I loved to see your old photos and hear your stories... so don't forget to post your Flashback Friday Photos and link up with Alicia.

Wordless Wednesday ~ Disney Weenies

.
Focused on the Magic


I'm linking up with Focused on the Magic for my Wordless Wednesday..... and the theme this week is Disney Weenies.  What the heck is that you may ask (I know I did)?  Well, I learned that they are the iconic structures or focal points in each of the parks and lands, like the castle in the Magic Kingdom or the Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom.

So here are my photos for this week's theme of Disney Weenies.....

EPCOT during Flower & Garden Fest 2012

Castle at Magic Kingdom on Leap Day when we stayed all night long until 5:00a.m.


T-Rex Store & Restaurant ~ Downtown Disney

Hope you enjoyed my photos, if you have any Disney photos, link up with Focused on the Magic along with the Wordless Wednesday Hub.

Have a great week.

PICK ME - PICK ME for Brandcation: Blog Lodge



Many of you know that I had the ULTIMATE privilege of attending Brandcation in November 2010 with 32 of the MOST fabulous women I have ever met.  I learned so much from those ladies, had so much fun, and made some of the best friends I have ever had, and still have.

This October Momdot and Brandfluential is holding another Brandcation, this time in Gatlinburg, Tennessee in this absolutely gorgeous Log Cabin.....


 
Photos from Momdot.com


Part of the itinerary is to go to Dollywood, Dixie Stampede, Titanic Museum, The Old Mill, and The Wax Museum... how AWESOME does that sound? I have ALWAYS wanted to see each of those places, especially since the Dixie Stampede here in Orlando closed.

When I heard about this trip, I was SO excited because I really wanted to go... so Bill and I talked about it and said we were going to save up some money and buy my ticket in a few weeks... WELL, that was NOT to be had! The tickets sold out in a day and a half... my heart broke, there went my chance to see those wonderful women who are so special to me. Maybe next time Bill and I said to each other. =(

BUT GUESS WHAT????  I have one more chance at going to Brandcation!! How is that you say?

Well, there is a special giveaway over at Momdot... Yippee!! (pick me... pick me.... pick me).  It is an amazing giveaway also... the always fabulous Momdot is sponsoring the ticket, the outstanding Minnesota blogger Life with Levi is sponsoring the lodging, AND to help with travel and/or incidental expenses, the spectacular Toni from Just Stop Screaming will be throwing in $100 cash stipend.  That is just incredible for whoever wins... even if it's not me. (pick me... pick me... pick me.)

The only thing you need to do to enter the giveaway is answer one of the two following questions:

1) WHY you want to attend and what it would mean to you

or

2) WHY you want to go to Pigeon Forge and the place you are most excited to visit listed on our iten up there.


So, if you can't tell by know that I have already answered WHY I want to go, I'll tell you again. The group of women who attend Brandcation events are the most friendly, smart, loving, and most important to me, supportive women I have ever met. I still talk to several of the women I met and roomed with every day via email, Facebook, and even texting.  We are there for each other during the good times and the bad times. We are there to laugh, cry, and support each other no matter what we or our families are going through. I know there are some things that I could never have gotten through without these ladies and I cannot wait to see them again to give them each a great big hug!

So even if I am not the lucky one who gets to go to TN, THANK YOU so much to the three wonderful bloggers offering this terrific giveaway to an outstanding event. And good luck to all the ladies who enter!


**UPDATE: My absolutely darling of a husband has just picked up two weeks of work at the Dry Cleaners he used to work at to help defray any costs that may come up JUST IN CASE I am the VERY LUCKY woman who wins this MOST AWESOME ticket...... Do you not just love this man?

G-OIL® Toyota to Race for Noah’s Light at Daytona on July 6th, 2012

.


 From Green Earth Technologies, Inc. press release:

The Green Earth Technologies, Inc. (G.E.T.) (OTC bulletin board: GETG.OB) #19 Noah’s Light / G-OIL Toyota Camry will be on a mission at Daytona’s Subway Jalapeno 250 NASCAR Nationwide Series race July 6th. The TriStar Motorsports team and driver Tayler Malsam will be racing to promote awareness for the Noah’s Light Foundation and the “Fast Forward” campaign for pediatric brain cancer research.

Created in 2010 by Amber and Dennis Larkin, the Winter Garden, Florida based Noah’s Light Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was created in honor of young Noah Larkin who lost his fight with pediatric brain cancer earlier this year. The Fast Forward campaign is designed to accelerate research and cures for pediatric cancer through an aggressive and collaborative program including a number of leading cancer research organizations.

Amber Larkin, Noah’s Light Foundation:
“The Noah’s Light mission is to find a cure for pediatric brain cancer by supporting visionary doctors in pediatric oncology, funding new research in the field and raising awareness. The speed, communication and teamwork of NASCAR represent the approach that the Noah’s Light Foundation is bringing to cancer research. We are on Fast Forward for today’s children.”

Jeffrey Loch, President and CMO of Green Earth Technologies, Inc.:
“We are honored to feature the Noah’s Light Foundation on the #19 G-OIL Toyota Camry to help raise awareness of the Foundation and the Fast Forward campaign. GET is concerned about the environment and consumed toxicity as well as carbon emissions and VOC’s being emitted into the air or dumped into the soil that reaches our groundwater. GET was founded on the premise of creating safer solutions that work.”

Dr. Dennis A. Steindler, Ph.D., The Evelyn F. and William L. McKnight Brain Institute, University of Florida:
“Pediatric brain cancer should not exist on our planet, and we need to rapidly and innovatively apply all of the fruits of our progressing research efforts toward better treating these and all of the childhood cancers. Just as with environmental issues, cancer can be considered to be an invasive species that requires out-of-the-box, adaptive and less toxic therapeutic approaches to strategically treat this overgrowth of our own body’s cells. Collaborative teams like NASCAR, Noah’s Light Foundation and Green Earth Technologies are just the ticket to fast forward transformational research discoveries to new treatments and cures for these kids.”

Tearful Family Reunion with Dog they Thought was Dead

.


I saw this on the web earlier and it moved me so much that I had to share it with all of you.

The ASPCA is one of the charities that I donate to every year, unfortunately the amount has gotten a little smaller each year, but I still try to find a way to help, even if it's only with a bag of dog food.





If you are considering getting a dog for your family, PLEASE consider adopting - you can save a life and receive the love of a lifetime - I know we have!
