Any ideas...

So, here is the deal...The few links that are on the side of my blog were done by Marc, and I guess that I always assumed that he would be here to show me how to do them...WELL, now I am in the position of learning how to do them all by myself...and, well, I am not exactly a computer programmer (although at UMM I did take 1 lone programming class...off the subject though I know!)
Now this entry is going to entail all the blogs that I have ran across over the last few weeks. I will set them all up as links and a short description of them...When i figure out how that is...But, for now I am going to list them all right here...after the end of this entry...
I think that is the end of this entry for now though...Sad, I know but just some things going through the head and I am at a loss for the correct words now...I am going to go and run now! *Wow*
Until next time...See ya in chat later tonight (Wednesday)
Love,
~Joy~

Thinking...

Do you remember the first time that you ever wrote on your blog? I know that I don't BUT I remember that there were just a few comments...and then all of the sudden I stumbled accross a blog that was entitled "The Whitecotton Journal" and I started to read it...well, then he changed to "Voyeur Nation" and I am sure that is the one that some of you are familiar with...Well, he left a great impression on me...just because he was always there with some great advice to hand out...and he always did it in a great way. Well, I write this and I am thinking about him because I have missed his little comments and words of advice...and trust me there were times that I needed it...
So, to you I leave this final note of the night...Even though we never knew each other in person...you still had a great impact on me...just through your comments and being so bright and cheerful...forever laughing with us in Wednesday chat...Just remember that you may be gone but you will never be forgotten...to all those that you ever touched...and I will take your brilliant advice and make my "Joy List"...while I am listening to "I Summon You"...
Love forever...

~Joy~

In loving Memory...you are gone but not forgotten DocDur Marc

Sunday, August 20, 2006

May you rest in peace...


To you, Marc, may you rest in peace...He passed away today, August 20, 2006 after a long battle with health problems. There are many that will miss him, but he is all better now...
Marc was an inspiration and told it as it was...even if it wasn't what you wanted to hear...And so, tonight I bid you a fond farewell and until we meet! Save me a spot and trust me...I will flutter my wings...for you to greet me...with your laughter and smiles...like during our chats...
Love ya lots,

Love forever,

~Joy~

And I leave you with this picture so that you will know me when I get there...

Thank you for the last year...








To you Marc, I thank you for the memories of the past year...and to you, Jenny, I am coming to help you also...well, as you may or may not tell my life has been a roller coaster ride for the last week...and not in a good way...So, right now I am going to leave you with my new pictures of the dogs...and leaving me to think about what is really important...until the next time though...
Sending you lots of love...
~Joy~

If only...

Today when I was browsing I ran into a few things that were kind of odd...and then I began to think about how different life would have been if only...
If only...so here is my rambling right now...
If only my best friend, Chris, were still here where would I live at? Probably somewhere close to him. No not probably...I know that I would be close to him regardless of where we were at...
If only the circumstances of 9/11 were different and you, Josh, had been on that flight...and you, Meg, had not called in sick...what would have become of the kids now?
If only I had not caught you, Jake, cheating on me...would I be mixerably married to you now? I hope not...but I guess that the answer would be...likely...since we were talking about it...
If only I could telll you how much I liked you from the start instead of us playing so many games...and it taking so much longer like it did...
If only I heard from my friend in Arizona more often...talk like we used to...
If only you, Gary, weren't in Grand Forks...I want you closer to me all the time...and not 3 hours away...to cry to you, laugh with you...but remember that I will see you September 29th! Same place as usual so call me!
If only I had been different, more outgoing, and not so shy in college...I would have told you, Eric, that I realy had a secret crush on you...and not let you leave so willingly...or at least lose contact with you! I need you to talk to again! So, if you ever see this...remember that we went to college in Morris, MN and we lived on the same floor in Indy Hall...you need to tell me more info and I will believe that it is you!
If only...I could go on all night...but I don't want to because I think that you get the point...plus I need to finish getting ready!
Talk to you soon! Take care!!!
With lotz o' love~
